College Park, Maryland, United States

1968 Cadillac Deville, 2 door hardtop, 7.7 L 472 cu. in. engine, automatic transmission, power steering, 4 wheel drum brakes, a/c, power windows-all windows work and don't leak, runs great, can be driven home but not sure if it would be smart to drive more than 100 miles as it hasn't been driven long distances for a while, has following issues

Needs heater core, heater core leaks but has been bypassed for the time being.

Blower motor control-blower motor works sometimes-probably loose wire at the control on the dash

Temperature gauge not working-will try to have this issue fixed before selling car-but car isn't overheating.

Needs neutral safety switch-switch broke so it has been bypassed so we can start the car up.

Has some rust, mainly bubbly surface rust in about 8-10 places about 6 inches or so, but 2 main places near where the vinyl top meets the C pillar near the rear windows and in the lower right fender just behind the wheel, we have an extra right fender that has no rust that will go with the car and just needs to be put on.

Needs vinyl top-vinyl top is pretty much done.

Radio and clock not working-both probably need to be re-furbished.

Interior is good except for seats, seats need to be re-upholstered.

I can include a new heater core and blower motor in with the car. I haven't been able to find the part for the neutral safety switch but I'm sure they are out there and probably not that much.

Missing hubcaps in the pictures are in the trunk so it has all the hubcaps.

Other than that great car, mainly cosmetic fixes with the body and vinyl top or could be made into a convertible. Thanks, Barney

Liberace's gilded Cadillac could be yours

Tue, 27 Aug 2013

With their chrome grilles and oversized wheels, it's hard not to notice a Cadillac these days. But this one is even more blingtastic on account of the 23.75-karat gold-leaf bodywork.
The 1931 Cadillac Golfer's Drop Head Coupé is said to have belonged to the inimitable performer Liberace, who didn't just have it covered in gold - he also had the exterior door handles plated in silver and the inside handles in 24-karat gold as well. It's also got a white leather interior and headlights that - well ahead of their time (if you'll pardon us, Mr. Tucker) - pivot with the steering wheel. All that bling is powered by a 5.7-liter V8 mated to a three-speed automatic transmission that pales in comparison to the seven, eight and even nine-speed gearboxes appearing on luxury sedans today.
The project was undertaken over the course of three years in the 1970s by one Jack Smith from Kansas. Smith (if that was his real name) sold it at auction in 1975, and it was most recently displayed for 12 years at a museum in Germany which claimed it was Liberace's own. The car is now going up for sale by Barons' at the Sandown Park horse racing track in Surrey, England, on September 17, when bidding starts at 85,000 pounds - equivalent to over $130,000 at today's rates.

Next-gen Cadillac CTS-Vs caught in parking lot

Thu, 10 Jan 2013

A pair of camouflaged Cadillac CTS prototypes were spotted, and thankfully photographed, outside a grocery store in Southern California. From the image above - there are plenty more if you click over to TotalCarScore.com - it appears these could be testers for the 2014 CTS-V, but that is just speculation. We've seen the obvious "V" motif in the grille before, and there's what could be another "V" in the design of the side mirrors.
The hood on the car in the background appears to include two bulges, but the single shot that affords a tiny peek under the hood shows reveals only the airbox. Plenty of rumors, and the sight of an engine cover inscribed with the words "Twin Turbo," have caused people to wonder if a twin-turbo V6 will live under the production car's hood instead of the V8 currently there. In back, instead of the round tailpipes found outboard on all the CTS sedans, there's a pair of integrated tips in a parallelogram shape. A new shifter with contrasting stitching was spied in the cabin.
If predictions hold up it will arrive later this year. When it does, expect the body underneath all that camo to be softer on the eye compared to the current car - less science and more art. For now, hit the link to see more spy shots of what's coming.

GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems

Mon, 30 Jun 2014

General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.
