CONTACT JEFF AT 570 977 0741.  Up for sale and your consideration is a beautiful classic 1939 Cadillac Series 60 Fleetwood four door sedan with only 85,740 original miles. This car was garage kept it's entire life. This is a turn key and drive car that runs, drives and stops great, and can be enjoyed immediately on the day of purchase. This is a rare find since it is in outstanding condition and is a very well cared for true survivor. Please take the time to look over all 24 photos that I have listed here on the auction. I have many more photos available should any prospective buyer want them.  Just call and ask for them. If any prospective buyer has any questions on this car I encourage and welcome the opportunity to show this car in person by appointment. I have in hand a clean title for this car showing actual mileage. I also have the original owner manual and a reproduction shop manual for this specific car.
BODY : 
The outer body is rust free. I'm not a body man, but I was told by two different body shop owners that they believe that this car still retains it's original paint. There is one small rust spot inside the left front fender. It is not part of the fender and appears to be an inner fender panel. The right side has been repaired. All glass is perfect. Trunk and doors lock with the original key. Chrome and trim is in amazing condition for the year. 
UNDERSIDE:
As you can see in the photos the underside has only surface rust on the original floor pan front to rear. This is unheard of for a northeast vehicle. Underside viewing shows new brakes, new brake lines, new rear shocks, new king pins, new tie rod ends along with some new front suspension parts. The gas tank was removed and restored with the Renu restoration process. A new sending unit was installed. The gas tank is coated inside and out so the gasoline never touches the metal again. The interior is very nice original The left rear carpet has one area near the door that shows age. The woodgrain on the dash and window moldings is excellent. The steering wheel and all plastic knobs are excellent original. Headliner has no rips. The velvet autorobe blanket you see hanging on the passenger assist rope is an original with the original manufactures tag on it. It reads Artfur Auto Robes. It was manufactured by Shelton Looms. The seats appear to have been covered by material much stronger than the original cloth, but since seat covers were a factory option for an additional whopping $8.25 per seat, they may be original. A well versed Cadillac expert could probably answer this question. Windows roll up and down effortlessly. The gas gauge, temperature gauge, oil pressure gauge, ammeter gauge and speedometer gauge all work fine.
DRIVETRAIN:
Drivetrain is all original with low miles. Car is equipped with the 346 cubic inch "L" head V8 with hydraulic lifters. Engine is topped with a Stromberg AAV-26 carburetor that works great. A new fuel pump has also been installed. It is backed by a three speed selective synchro transmission that transfers the power to the 3:92 ratio differential. The car has just been tuned up and serviced with a fresh oil change, new spark plugs, and chassis lubrication. The transmission oil and rear differential oil was also just checked. 
ELECTRICS:
Parking lights, high and low beam headlights, dash and glove box lights are all working. Interior light has power to the pillar mounted switch, but doesn't work. Working fog lights are a factory option and are connected to the headlight switch. The cost was $14.50 per light for this factory option. The under dash switch is marked 'fog lights' and illuminates when activated. Car has two horns. One is factory unit working fine that is activated by the horn ring on steering wheel. The other is a three trumpet musical opera horn activated by a toggle switch. It is unique and has it's own sound. The heater works fine. The wipers work great operating fast and smooth. The factory radio comes on but doesn't pull in any stations. You can hear scratching in the speaker when you move the volume knob. The radio was a $69.50 option and the heater was a $31.50 option. 
OPERATION:
Since the fuel system was renewed with a restored gas tank new sender and lines and new fuel pump, along with a rebuilt front suspension and braking system, and all operational electrics, this classic Caddy is a dream to drive and gets thumbs ups wherever you drive it. The 16" Gangster wide whites have excellent tread. This will make an excellent enjoyable addition to any collection. The original condition and patina would be appreciated by any real car person. You can find rows of restored trailer queens at any car show, but try to find an original 1939 anything in this condition !

Cadillac CT6 ushers in new naming convention

Wed, 24 Sep 2014

Johan de Nysschen has been at his new post as president of Cadillac for not even three months , but he's already seen two of his most notable accomplishments from his two-year tenure as president of Infiniti matched by Cadillac. The brand has announced that it is relocating its headquarters, and is now officially changing its nomenclature.
The brand's new flagship model will abandon the familiar three-letter designation enjoyed by every other model in the range (aside from the Escalade), and adopt an alpha-numeric title. So, rather than the expected title of LTS, Cadillac's top-end car will be called the CT6.
Of course, this won't be limited to just one model. According to Cadillac's press release, "familiar lettering like 'CT' would be used for car models, with the number indicating the relative size and position of the cars in the hierarchy of Cadillac models." And yes, that means what you think it means - Cadillac will use the exact same naming formula, albeit with different letters, as Infiniti.

Expect greater differentiation in GM's next-generation SUVs

Thu, 03 Jan 2013

General Motors says its next-generation Chevrolet Tahoe, Suburban, GMC Yukon and Cadillac Escalade models will offer shoppers improved interior differentiation. Car and Driver recently caught up with Chris Hilts, GM's creative manager of interior design, who said that the cabins will all feature unique instrument panels, consoles, center stacks and switchgear moving forward. Apparently GM is now aware that consumers may be bothered by the fact that today's $85,000 Escalade has effectively the same cabin as a $45,000 Tahoe. Hilts says SUV buyers want more refinement than their pickup purchasing counterparts - and those same buyers also want their SUVs to have more exterior differentiation between the company's Silverado and Sierra pickup lines. Shocking.
That all sounds good to us, but we've heard this song and dance before. GM made big waves about how different the new-for-2013 Silverado and Sierra would look from each other, but judging by what we've seen so far, GM's stylists are painting in shades rather than with the full spectrum.

Cadillac ATS-V shares track time and new face with CTS-V sibling

Tue, 24 Jun 2014

It's been about eight months since we last heard anything on the eagerly anticipated Cadillac ATS-V, meaning it was high time a new batch of photos arrived of the twin-turbocharged, V6-powered sedan.
This latest round includes a shot of the hot ATS-V alongside the upcoming CTS-V, allowing us to glimpse through the camouflage and spot the family resemblance between the two über sedans. According to our spies, this is the first time we've gotten a look at the ATS-V's fascia without a nose bra to obscure larger details. This isn't the first time we've seen a vertically slated grille on an in-development Cadillac V car, although it is the first time we've seen it on the ATS-V. Aside from the main grille, the shapes of the sportier front fascia of the ATS-V tie in nicely with its big brother. We are rather curious about the hood on the ATS-V. It's difficult to tell from these images, but it looks like there may be some vents up there that may be meant to improve cooling to the alleged 425-horsepower engine.
Other details that we can see include swollen fenders and larger wheels that hide amplified brakes. The rear of the car remains heavily obscured by camo, with the sole details of note being the quad exhausts, which we've spotted on previous ATS-V prototypes.
