1974 Cadillac Coupe Deville Base 2-door 7.7l (472 C.i.) on 2040-cars

Year:1974 Mileage:59787
Location:

Redondo Beach, California, United States

Redondo Beach, California, United States

This is a beautiful 1974 Coupe De Ville, White over Black Leather. It has black leather seats with a new carpet kit throughout. Even the door panels, which normally show sign of fading, cracking and "elbow wear," are in excellent condition. The dash pad does have a crack in it but I cover it up with a dash mat.  Headliner is in excellent condition. It is the "new appearance" of the inside of the car and great paint that will really attract the period conscientious buyer, all items are correct down to the original floormats.

I inherited this Southern California garaged car in 2013 from the estate of a great uncle who drove this car for 37 years. The mileage is original at 56K.  He had a ranch and two trucks and a Buick and this was his “Sunday car” where he would go and to dance and play bingo.

The engine and transmission are truly mechanically sound. I just had the car tuned with new spark plugs, new wires, pcv valve, a new QuadraJet 750 cfm mechanical choke carburetor with 360 Degree Airfilter.  Very recent oil change and filter, all fluids have been topped off and rear end fluid was drained and refilled.   The car is in great condition.  I chose to do some restoration of parts that would deteriorate with time which included spending money on new front leather interior, carpet kit,  new battery, flush condenser and evaporator, replace some hoses, and service the brakes and new wiper blades. The clock is inoperative (very common on these cars but can be exchanged. 80% all original paint with some very minor imperfections here and there (great uncle was an avid golfer so there is a golf ball dent on the roof) but other than that it is good. There is absolutely no rust in the body panels and underneath the car is solid.  Electric windows, seats, aerial, wipers. Heater blows toasty and A/C is ice cold. The trip meter sometimes gets stuck but the odometer keeps excellent track of its original 56,787. The stereo system has been swapped out for a AM/FM Radio, MP3, Ipod with USB port.  New Sony 6”x9 “ speakers installed professionally on rear deck lid and reupholstered.

2014 Cadillac ELR is making green sexy in Detroit

Tue, 15 Jan 2013


In terms of styling, inside and out, the ELR hits the ball out of the park.
Cadillac has pulled the wraps off of its newest family member, the long-rumored, Voltec-powered, eye-catching extended range hybrid coupe called the ELR. The car makes use of the same basic architecture as the Chevrolet Volt, but has been thoroughly layered on with design, technology and performance tuning - with the goal of being a properly situated product for the Cadillac brand.

2015 Cadillac ATS Coupe

Thu, 30 Oct 2014

Cadillac has become a very, very different company since the dawn of the new millenium. Its turn-of-the-century lineup, consisting of staid offerings like the Seville, DeVille and Eldorado, represented the Old Cadillac. These cars were plagued with Old GM quality issues and catered to a more elderly audience. Since the company's Art and Science design language arrived, though, we've seen Cadillac flesh out its lineup in a big way, introducing notable and (so far) enduring products, like the the CTS, SRX and most recently, the ATS.
With the CTS tackling the 5 Series segment and the SRX duking it out with the Lexus RX and its classmates, the ATS has been left with the tough task of battling the BMW 3 Series, Audi A4 and Mercedes-Benz C-Class, among others. Critically, at least, it has excelled in this role, but it's still working on finding its feet sales-wise. On paper, broadening the model range by adding a two-door personal luxury coupe could help.
After a week with the ATS Coupe, though, we've found a car that, while retaining the standard model's excellent driving character, doesn't quite offer enough visual excitement to stand up to other cars in its segment.

Cadillac V-Series Academy comes to Las Vegas [w/video]

Thu, 31 Jan 2013

General Motors has added another high-speed education course to the curriculum at the Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch outside of Las Vegas, Nevada. The desert track already hosts the Ron Fellows Performance Driving School with Chevrolet Corvettes, including the ZR1, and they've just added the Cadillac V-Series Academy.
Open now, the one- and two-day performance driving school teaches "the finer points of high performance driving" using the 556-horspower instructional aids known as the CTS-V sedan, coupe and wagon. This is different than than using the CTS-V at the Monticello Motor Club on the east coast - that's part of a sponsorship deal that Cadillac has with the track. The driving course at the Motorsports Ranch is its own program that was developed by Fellows, and we have no reason to think the Cadillac edition won't be just as thorough and enjoyable as the one with Corvettes.
Unlike the 'Vette edition, however, it doesn't appear that you get an invitation to the program if you buy a CTS-V model. Classes are capped at 12 participants and run $1,295 for a single day, $2,295 for two days. There are a video and a press release below with more info.
