1979 Cadillac Eldorado Base Coupe 2-door 5.7l on 2040-cars

Year:1979 Mileage:86686
Location:

Jasper, Georgia, United States

Jasper, Georgia, United States

Selling my '79 Eldorado FWD with 350 V8 (this is the Oldsmobile engine you want with this body style.)

This car belonged to a local Georgia sports figure's mother, who has since passed. Rides like a dream. Low miles 86,XXX.  I do drive this car, so mileage will change. Very dependable. I routinely drive it 50+ miles down to Atlanta. Just a few surface minor rust spots, but not in the wheel wells or problem areas. Headliner is sagging & needs re-glued. A/C does not work.

VERY clean interior. AM/FM Cassette with CB. WORKS, but some of the digits don't show up perfectly. I don't know if the CB works though.  The power antenna has a mind of its own. Sometimes it goes up, sometimes it doesn't. The speakers are original & very "tinny" sounding. I recommend swapping them out. Sunroof. Power windows. Great, matching near-new Firestone tires.

This car was kept in a carport it's life & the sun hit the trunk area. There were cracks in the trunk paint & paint had faded to the metal. To prevent further rust, the trunk was sanded and painted with standard white paint, but will need a professional sanding and painting to look proper. This was done only to prevent further damage.  The vinyl roof is in average/good condition, free of cracks.

I have a clean Georgia title in my name. Also have original manuals, window sticker & many maintenance documents.

This classic Cadillac is available for sale locally & I reserve the right to end the listing early in the event of a local offer. If you'd like this car, use the "Buy it Now" feature or email your reasonable offer.

Please don't contact me unless you're a cash buyer serious to buy.  I will not end this auction outside of the terms of ebay.

I am only selling to fund the restoration of a convertible project I picked up recently.


10% of the sales price will be donated to my local Civil Air Patrol Squadron for cadet programs & emergency services training.

Cadillac scraps three-row CUV plans

Fri, 23 May 2014

Crossovers are one of the hottest automotive segments on the planet. Apparently, the idea of mixing the practicality of a station wagon with the looks of an SUV appeals to people whether they are in Cleveland or Shanghai because nearly every automaker is jumping into the market. So it was no surprise when early rumors suggested Cadillac was planning two, new CUVs to fit above and below the SRX. But things might have changed since then.
New rumblings indicate Caddy is taking a different route. Instead of two crossovers, only the compact is on the way, and the larger, three-row CUV on the Lambda platform to sit between the SRX and Escalade may be a goner. According to Ward's Auto, General Motors thinks that the other three-row, Lambda vehicles like the Buick Enclave and GMC Acadia compete too closely with the proposed Cadillac. The decision comes fairly close to the 2017 intended production date.
As far back as 2010, this Lambda-platform based CUV was considered highly likely for production. However, Cadillac Senior Vice President Bob Ferguson was somewhat cooler about it when he discussed the new crossover briefly last year. He said the model could use the Escalade name, despite its unibody chassis, but no decision had been made yet to actually produce it.

First Cadillac ELR rolls off the line

Thu, 30 May 2013

Gearing up for the Belle Isle Grand Prix this weekend, General Motors invited some of the Chevrolet and Cadillac racecar drivers out to its Detroit-Hamtramck assembly plant. While there, the racers - including IndyCar Driver and Chevrolet Volt owner, Simona De Silvestro - witnessed the very first 2014 Cadillac ELR to roll off the assembly line.
These vehicles are not destined for customers, however, but instead pre-production units will be used by engineers for testing purposes. Actual production of ELR consumer models is expected to commence closer to the end of this year. As a refresher, this range-extended electric Cadillac shares much of its powertrain with the Volt but will have a sportier coupe design inspired by the Converj Concept. De Silvestro manged to snap a few images of here own, which you can see in the gallery below.

Cadillac chief says ATS convertible, wagon on the table

Wed, 15 Jan 2014

What we do know is that the ATS will wear at least one more bodystyle. That comes from Cadillac head Bob Ferguson, who answered "Absolutely" when Automotive News asked him about the possibility of another variant. What we don't know is what that bodystyle or styles will be.
We now have a sedan and coupe ATS, there's supposedly a V sedan coming. After that, a convertible is a likely option given that the man who just became the global product honcho at General Motors, Mark Reuss, admitted to having one already designed in 2012. The decision on it can't get out of the underworld and a wagon is the other option, but the droptop would seem to make the most sense if one considers the competitive set: the BMW 4 Series and Audi A5 convertibles are hot property and Mercedes is bringing a C-Class convertible. Meanwhile wagons are the sentimental utility vehicles that, refusing to die, seem forever destined for life support... CTS Sport Wagon, anyone?
Based on Ferguson's statements, it appears that what Cadillac definitely won't do is play model variant catch-up with the European luxury brands it has spent years hunting down, telling Automotive News, "We want to keep our focus on a limited number of vehicles and do them very well."
