1956 Cadillac Sedan deVille - 9,874 Original Miles
You are looking at an original, garage kept mechanical jewel from another era. I am the second owner of this
wonderful car and I bought it in 1973 with 7,744 miles on the odometer. As you can see, I've only driven it 2,100
miles in 42 years. During this time the car has been in a climate controlled garage and driven and started
regularly.
This lovely lady was originally purchased by an elderly lady in Washington, D.C. She sold it to me as she was
losing her ability to drive safely and as you can see from the mileage she drove it hardly. The evidence of her
failing ability are the scars the car bears on its right front fender and right rear quarter as she attempted to
navigate her one car garage. The scars were never properly repaired from when she damaged it over 50 years ago.
This treasure is original in every way; paint, interior and engine. Below I will list only the things that have
been repaired or replaced. It is a very short list. The car is so original it even smells like the 50's and my
childhood sitting in cars of this vintage. Look at the chrome, switch gear, seats and headliner. They are like new
and untouched.
If the car needs anything it is some paint work and use. I have not driven it because I thought the value would
continue to increase. Sadly, this has not been the case. My delay in using my treasure is your gain. She really
does need a new owner who will be willing to drive her, show her and love her.Items Repaired/Replaced

Cadillac XTS to become Opel flagship sedan?
Tue, 24 Jul 2012According to Auto-News.de, Opel is considering using Cadillac's all-new big sedan, the XTS, as the base for its new flagship car, which would likely carry the name Omega.
WorldCarFans.com speculates that Opel could use GM's 3.6-liter direct-injection V6 that generates 304 horsepower or, possibly, a 2.8-liter turbocharged six-cylinder engine that creates 321 horsepower to power the vehicle. The European automaker could even use a 195-horsepower turbocharged four-cylinder engine in this application - fine, since many of Europe's largest sedans are powered by smaller, more efficient engines.
Regardless of power, the Omega could arrive at dealerships by the end of 2013.
Former Cadillac boss Butler takes Ford tech job
Tue, 07 Jan 2014When Don Butler made the surprising decision to leave his post as Cadillac's VP of global strategic development, it was a surprise. Citing a desire to "recalibrate, reassess my priorities" in that August announcement, it wasn't entirely clear where Butler - a virtual General Motors lifer after spending nearly 30 years with the company - would end up. Turns out he took a trip to Dearborn.
Butler has taken a position in the newly created position of Executive Director of Connected Vehicles and Services at Ford, where he'll be responsible for the Blue Oval's global connectivity strategy. "Not only does Don understand the connected car landscape, but probably just as important, he understands customer expectations," said Raj Nair, who, as Group Vice President of Global Product Development, is Butler's new boss. "Having a leader with technology experience both inside and outside the industry is a rare combination - we're excited to have Don join our team."
As Ford has received its fair share of flak for the sometimes recalcitrant MyFord Touch infotainment system and its Sync voice-controls, it appears that Butler has his work cut out for him.
GM recalling 8.4M cars, 8.2M related to ignition problems
Mon, 30 Jun 2014General Motors today announced a truly massive recall covering some 8.4 million vehicles in North America. Most significantly, 8.2 million examples of the affected vehicles are being called back due to "unintended ignition key rotation," though GM spokesperson Alan Adler tells Autoblog that this issue is not like the infamous Chevy Cobalt ignition switch fiasco.
For the sake of perspective, translated to US population, this total recall figure would equal a car for each resident of New Hampshire, Rhode Island, Montana, Delaware, South Dakota, Alaska, North Dakota, the District of Columbia, Vermont and Wyoming. Combined. Here's how it all breaks down:
7,610,862 vehicles in North America being recalled for unintended ignition key rotation. 6,805,679 are in the United States.
