1974 Cadillac Sovereign Combination Hearse Ambulance by Superior Coach
Car has a 472 with 28,860 actual miles. New belts, Alternator, and Battery. The only mechanical issues are a small oil leak and a crack in the smog control pump bracket (see pictures) Some paperwork in the dash from the original owner including yearly inspections noting mileage through 1987. It was purchased in 1974 by a funeral home in King, NC and they used it until 1987 and sold it to a small firm in West Virginia, they traded it in on a newer one in 2004 and it came into the possession of an individual in the Chattanooga area. It has been out of Service since 2004. The individual and the dealer he bought from say that these are the actual miles. It drives strait and true just as a Cadillac should, although it might benefit from a good tune-up as it idles a little rough at time but has plenty of power. The brakes work well and the transmission shifts fine. The man I got the car from said that on the way back from the dealer in Virginia the transmission began leaking and he in turn had it rebuilt when he got it home (2004). It also has an external transmission cooler now.
Runs and Drives Good. Looks pretty good for a 40 year old car, it is not perfect. Has been repainted a few times and could stand to be painted again to make it really nice. It has a few chips and blemishes in the paint and a few little areas of surface rust and some bubbles in the lower front fenders that will need some attention,(please see pictures). The frame and floorboards are solid. I tried to get pictures of the under side, they are not real good but maybe you can get an idea.
New tires receipt is in the dash.
All functional parts still in back. Jump seats and belts are there. Comes with Landau Panels, Ambulance Plates for rear windows, cot (old Washington two man), and fire extinguisher. It has a small modern siren on it and still has all the controls for the lights, rear air/heat, rear dome lights, etc.. The Radio works but the antenna has quit in the down position and the air conditioner compressor has been wired to a toggle switch mounted under the dash and does blow cool air but will also need some TLC. All the Glass is good.
Asking $5495.00 O.B.O.
Call or text 423- 599-0328 with any questions. If you call and get no answer leave a message and I will call you back.

Cadillac toned down ATS Coupe design due to customer feedback [w/poll]
Tue, 02 Sep 2014Automakers always face a difficult decision when it comes to styling their cars. Design them too blandly and nobody will get excited about them. But style them too aggressively and they'll often end up turning off potential buyers.
Cadillac, for its part, is no stranger to aggressive design, but when it came to the new ATS Coupe, it elected to tone things down a bit. Speaking with The Detroit News in a wide-ranging interview, Cadillac design director Bob Boniface revealed that the original design for its compact coupe was edgier - closer to that of the CTS Coupe - with a wedgier profile, a more steeply raked beltline and a more severe grille. But potential customers surveyed in clinics apparently didn't like it. They found it looked heavy, inefficient and not fun to drive. So Boniface and his team literally went back to the drawing board and "took as much visual mass out of the car as [they] could." The resulting coupe, while handsome, looks far more similar to its four-door companion than did Cadillac's CTS.
What do you think, does the new ATS Coupe look just right, or is it too conservative? Voice your opinion in our quick online poll.
GM issues four new recalls, 2.4 million cars affected
Tue, 20 May 2014General Motors has announced another set of recalls, covering some 2.42 million cars in the United States. For those keeping track, The General has now recalled over 15 million cars worldwide this year due to various issues.
Here's the breakdown for this most recent set of recalls:

Off-road Cadillac Escalade adds some extra bush country capability
Wed, 26 Jun 2013So, you're a dyed-in-the-wool General Motors fan, but like the notion of a machine like the Hennessey Velociraptor. We have good news for you. Behold the Aria Coachworks XPLORE Cadillac Escalade. For a modest fee, Aria will outfit your Escalade with a custom suspension, BF Goodrich all-terrain tires wrapped around aluminum wheels, a Warn winch and a special exhaust. There's even a snorkel option for those of you with aspirations toward deep water crossings. Consider yourself warned, however: unlike other GMT900 SUVs, the Cadillac only has an all-wheel drive system, not the more rugged four-wheel drive setup of the Chevy Tahoe and GMC Yukon). Outside, the luxury SUV gets matte paint, black chrome trim, XPLORE power running boards and a roof rack system.
The interior also receives a few fun changes as well, but we're more interested in the fact that buyers can snag a power roof top tent. You know, in case you need to camp out at Best Buy for the PS4. There's also a matching camp trailer and, our personal favorite, a matching BMW GS motorcycle. Bikes not your bag of tricks? That's fine. Aria will also sell you a matched Airstream trailer or Old Town wooden canoes. As much as we want to hate this, we love the notion of bashing through the woods in a $100,000 Cadillac battlewagon with our GS in tow. Check the press release below for more information.
