Some of the HISTORY:

 

This car was purchased new in a dealership in Ft. Myers Florida in 1975. The car was purchased as an investment and stored in a warehouse until 1984. In 1988 This car was sold to the second owner In Garfield New Jersey. The car was purchased at that time with 4,300 Miles. Since then it was utilized until early 1994 and it was parked in storage until 1998 when it was purchased by the third and current registered owner. The car at that point was in need of restoration due to lack of use and being exposed to some elements. in 1999-2000 It was restored with new paint (oem color), and it was brought up to driving conditions. (New fluids, wires, plugs ect.) It was registered and kept in a garage in the owners home. It was taken off the road in 2003 and sat some months inside a garage and some outside the garage. I was contacted by the owner in order to get it ready to be sold last year in 2012. I have had this car in my possession ever since. The owner and I have put a new top on the car (due to 1-2 inch tear on the back of the top) and I have had it in storage on my property for almost a year my garage. (I have a clean clear NJ title) I have driven the car sporadically and have put some work into it while it has been in my possession, I fixed a few minor glitches (electrical) and It received a new convertible top in 2012. The car is ALL ORIGNAL I have not replaced anything besides the top, engine oil, and brakes (rear). It starts runs and drives very well!! Like a cadillac should. The miles on the Cadillac read 12,568. The odometer works, However I do not know if they are supposed to be 12K or 112K. I am told by the owner, it had 8900 when he bought it in 1999. Sorry for any inconvenience! They are believed to be true miles however I cannot verify!!  

 

Up for sale is this Beautiful 1976 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible. Let me start by saying that pictures dont do it justice. It truly looks better in person than in the pictures.

GM recalls 2014 Cadillac CTS recall

Wed, 02 Jul 2014

No, that headline isn't a typo - General Motors has reportedly issued a recall for one of its own recalls. The recall of a recall affects the recall of the 2014 Cadillac CTS, which wasn't supposed to be recalled. Except that the 2014 CTS was supposed to be recalled. Oh no, now we've gone cross-eyed.
Allow us to explain. The redesigned, third-generation CTS Sedan does not feature a faulty ignition switch, while the 2014 CTS Coupe and Wagon, which are based on the second-gen car, do. And as it turns out, there are only 264 of those vehicles included in last week's 8.2-million-unit, ignition-switch recall. Model year 2003 to 2013 CTS Sedans, Coupes and Wagons are still covered.
It's not entirely clear how this, frankly, colossal mistake was made, although we're betting GM is rapidly trying to get to the bottom of this embarrassing issue. Regardless, let's just take what solace we can in there being one less vehicle that GM has recalled this year.

GM recalling 524k vehicles over hood latches and toe link nuts

Fri, 03 Oct 2014

Just hours after confirming to Autoblog its intention to recall 97,540 vehicles in the US (117,651 in North America) for a possible manufacturing defect in the chassis control module of several models, General Motors is issuing two more campaigns that affect another 379,401 units in the US (524,384 in North America).
One campaign covers 290,107 US examples of the 2010-2015 Cadillac SRX and the 2011-2012 Saab 9-4X because the "rear toe link adjuster lock nuts" may be improperly torqued. If not up to spec, the toe adjuster link could separate and allow the wheel to shift while driving, making the handling unstable. GM says that it knows of three crashes and two injuries as a result of this problem. Dealers are inspecting the nuts and installing a new link assembly, if necessary. Autoblog first reported about this potential issue when it showed up on a list of recalls from Transport Canada.
The second recall is for 89,294 examples of the 2013-2015 Chevrolet Spark in the US manufactured from January 17, 2012, through July 29, 2014. According to GM, "corrosion can cause the secondary hood latch striker to stick in the open position." If this happens, and the primary latch also isn't engaged for some reason, the hood could fly open while driving. About 13,000 of these affected Sparks are at dealers and are being held until repaired. The fix requires replacing the hood striker. GM isn't aware of crashes, injuries or fatalities caused by this problem.

Cadillac considering more engines, Vsport model for Escalade

Tue, 15 Jul 2014

Want to roll in the latest Cadillac Escalade? You can get it with a 6.2-liter V8... or a 6.2-liter V8. Cadillac only offers the one engine option. But that may soon change.
According to the latest from Automotive News, Cadillac is contemplating a couple of new powertrain options for its blingin' big ute. The report suggests a twin-turbo V6 and a V6 turbodiesel could be offered, and that Cadillac could create a Vsport version of the Escalade like it offers on the new CTS sedan.
The more diverse engine offerings would help attract buyers from the new Lincoln Navigator, its prime competitor, which switched from a 5.4-liter V8 this year to a 3.5-liter twin-turbo V6. The turbo V6 engines (both gasoline and diesel) would also help Cadillac market the Escalade overseas - particularly in Europe, where higher fuel prices preclude the prospect of driving a big V8 SUV for many buyers. Escalade sales have dropped from 35-40k units in the mid-2000s to around 12,000 the past couple of years.
