Herriman, Utah, United States

1961 Cadillac Coupe de Ville. 2 door Hardtop.  I've had the car a year. I love it.  The car is giant and I've got four cars in a one car driveway.  I need to make room.  So sadly this one has to go.

I bought the car from an older fellow who'd had it covered for years.  It was not working when I got it.  The car has the original Cadillac 390 ci engine. I've replaced some hoses , belts and wiring. I replaced the lower control arm bushings. I rebuilt the master cylinder. I've also rebuilt the generator.   Currently it has an alternator installed, but it is a 10 minute switch to get the generator in again, and it is of course included with the car. I have all the hubcaps. I have the fender skirts.  Comes with an extra front grille also comes with original radio, currently not installed.  Runs and drives but will need a tuneup and brake adjustment at least. 

The car is not perfect yet.  The clearcoat is peeling all over the car. The car is 99.9 % rust free, however on the bottom rear lip of the trunk lid there is some rust to be repaired a picture is included. The brakes work but need to be adjusted, they pull a little to the right.  The interior was redone before it was covered an out away by the previous owner (12+ years ago).  The dash was recovered and looks great. The vinyl on the seats is starting to crack a little (as can be seen in the close up pictures around top of the seats).  I've been tinkering with task me wiring in the dash and a few of the gauges (fuel sender, water temp, dash light) got disconnected.  

Per car code the car was originally white exterior and black interior.  It was my intention to restore it to full glory as this is an awesome Car.  The Body is super straight and. The car is original as in Original engine chassis and body numbers matching.  It has never been chopped up or rodded out.  All original suspension and brakes. 

Car is currently in Riverton, Utah and is available for inspection by you or your mechanic. 

Buyer will be responsible for all shipping costs, transfer fees, and or all applicable sales taxes.

Cadillac confirms new flagship to be built in Detroit next year

Fri, 19 Sep 2014



"The objective for this upcoming model is to lift the Cadillac range by entering the elite class of top-level luxury cars." - Johan de Nysschen
Cadillac confirmed Friday morning it will build its new flagship sedan, expected to be called the LTS, starting in late in 2015 in Detroit.

2014 Cadillac ELR whirs into Jay Leno's Garage

Tue, 18 Jun 2013

While Jerry Seinfeld was gallivanting around LA with Sarah Silverman in a Jaguar XKE, our favorite car-loving comedian, Jay Leno, was checking out the all-new 2014 Cadillac ELR. Set to go on sale later this year, Cadillac brought its ELR to Jay Leno's Garage to show off some of its styling and technology as well as give Leno some seat time in the range-extended EV. Leno owns both a Volt and a CTS-V, and the ELR is a kind combination of the two (sort of).
In this episode, Leno spends some time talking to Frank Saucedo, GM director of advanced design, and ELR chief engineer Chris Thomason before logging a few miles on the sleek coupe. Interestingly, it seems that GM has definitely changed its tune a little since the introduction of the Volt a couple years ago; Saucedo and Leno both refer to the ELR as a hybrid, and Thomason says that it gets the "bulk of its propulsion" from the electric motors. Whatever you want to call it, scroll down to watch the latest episode of JLG with some great information and driving shots of the plug-in Cadillac.

Cadillac to bolster CT sedans with XT crossovers

Wed, 01 Oct 2014

Cadillac is moving swiftly to change up its naming scheme. Barely over a week ago we received our first indication that it was considering a different name its the upcoming flagship sedan previously known as LTS. Then Cadillac not only revealed the model would be called CT6, but announced that it would set the stage with a massive overhaul of its model nomenclature. And now we have another piece of the puzzle.
According to Forbes, Cadillac will not only rename its sedans with the letters CT, but will realign its utility vehicles under the banner of XT - both to be followed by a number indicating its place in the lineup. The one exception will be the Escalade, whose nameplate has such a strong following that it would be foolish for Cadillac to cast it aside. That leaves only the SRX (pictured above), but makes room for a new crop of crossovers said to be in the works.
It's a similar approach which Cadillac's new boss Johan de Nysschen took in revising the naming scheme at Infiniti. While it's bound to ruffle some feathers and scratch some heads in the beginning - especially since the company's current flagship sedan is called XTS - it's equally sure to make sense of it all in the long run. All we need to know now is what Nysschen and his marketing chief Uwe Ellinghaus plan to call the coupes.
