1957 Cadillac Series 62 Used To Fix Eldorado ( 1955 1956 1958 Sabre ) No Reserve on 2040-cars
Clarksville, Maryland, United States

1957 Cadillac Convertible Series 62 Original Black Car Paint Code 10 Unreal Body with No Rot (The car in 2009 before it was dismantled for parts) This car is a very solid and desirable car. A good friend of mine had a mint condition 1957 Eldorado that was burnt in a fire. He wanted to restore his burnt Eldorado, and purchased this excellent Series 62 to pull some parts. The Series 62 was a running and driving car that was 100% complete in 2009, but is now stripped, and just a shell of what it used to be. I have been waiting to purchase this car, and since I have a Cadillac scrap yard, I was able to gather a lot of parts in anticipation of receiving it. Unfortunately, I have too many other projects and I can't go forward with this one. Instead, I am offering it on eBay with no reserve and can eventually help someone restore the car with the parts I had originally gathered. Pieces that I had gathered include some of the stainless trim pieces that are rare. Some are from the Eldorado that burned and may some windshield trim has a "smoke stain", but they can be flash plated and are fortunately not warped or bent. These parts are very rare, so plating the smoke stained parts are one of the few routes to take with this restoration. As stated earlier, the cleanest parts went to the Eldorado show car. I have a Cadillac scrap yard with parts ranging from 1950-1964. We have tried to add in as many parts as we have here. Please call for more details anytime 301 672 1000. If the car is not paid for within 72 hour of the end of the auction, it will be for sale at Carlisle and Hershey car shows. One of the main challenges for the new owner of this 1957 Series 62, will be finding a rear speaker, rear view mirror, the sun visor brackets (repo on EBAY), and the rear interior panels that hold the ash tray right and left) reproduction from Classic Fabrication out of New England. Key points of the car:
Engine: It ran in 2009 before it was dismantled for parts. We have not started the car. The carb was not with the car so we set a correct carb core on the manifold. Body: Super solid. We do not see ANY rust on the trunk, floors and rockers. One the best I have ever seen. The BODY IS UNREAL. Interior: The back seats are very rare. They came from the Eldorado that was burnt. The top and bottom are in good shape, and were not rusty before the fire. For the front seat, I have nice tracks and side covers for the bottom with the switch. I have 2 sets of backs, I have a marginal seat bottom and center arm rest. The dash pad needs redone, and the cluster is set in and not the original cluster from this car but reads 38.XXX miles. It's not pitted, and the front door panels are original red pieces to the car. We do not have the rear interior panels, but they are available. Also you can make them We have the right and left UPPER interior trim for the rear, as they are hard to find elsewhere.They are screwed in. Doors: The doors are 1958 doors i put on the car, as I did not have nice 57 doors. I am including some rough doors from a 1957 that have the Convertible only vent windows and would be good to keep for a model for assembly.I may get some 1957 nice doors I primed the ones on the car and realized they were for 1958. Transmission: It is original. Windshield Trim: We have all the trim except the sun visors and brackets and rear view mirror assembly. Some was scorched by fire and will need to be flash plated as they are very rare and you will probably not be able to find others. I even have the small stainless in the center that acts as a cover. Most people loose this part. Side trim: It is nice but one of the long strips has screws on the driver side. I will include another one for spare. Convertible parts: The top frame is from the burnt car and was never rusty. It is amazing shape and set in the car , This series 62 has a 4 piece snap pinch well trim that is very nice. Rear quarter windows and regulators are included with tracks as pictured as well as some hardware. Some rare convertible parts that will be included are pictured below:
No rust under hood lip. Thin molding is nice R & L Beautiful inner rockers 1958 doors primed in error, please call We can assist with world wide shipping and transport for a fee.

2014 Cadillac CTS images leak from somewhere
Sun, 24 Mar 2013The redesigned 2014 Cadillac CTS will be unveiled this Tuesday on the eve of the New York Auto Show, but as often happens, some images of the car have leaked onto the web a few days early. Previously, the only information we had on the 2014 CTS concerned the all-new twin-turbo V6 engine that will be found underhood, rated at 420 horsepower and 430 pound-feet of torque.
While none show the new car in its entirety, the images do show much of the front end, particularly the headlights that feature vertical bars of LEDs that start down low as foglights and continue up to the top of the front fenders. They're similar to the lighting design first shown on the XTS and ATS, except the lower portions are much taller.
There are also views of the rear end and one of the taillights, as well as an interior shot of the front passenger door. The latter image has us most intrigued, as it shows some very high end materials being used in the new CTS interior. The low-gloss wood trim, in particular, looks very premium.
Cadillac sales chief fired over policy violation
Sun, 21 Jul 2013Amidst a good year for Cadillac, which is experiencing higher sales gains than any other US brand this year, the US sales chief has been fired over a policy violation, Automotive News reports.
The sales chief, Chase Hawkins, "has left effective immediately," GM spokesman David Caldwell told Automotive News. Caldwell went on to say that Hawkins' replacement would be chosen soon.
Hawkins became the US sales chief in June 2012, and before that was the regional sales director for Cadillac in the Northeast US, overseeing 168 dealerships.
Cadillac to move select offices from Detroit to Manhattan?
Fri, 22 Aug 2014Under Johan de Nysschen, Infiniti moved its headquarters from Yokohama, Japan, to Hong Kong. Now at Cadillac, it appears the company's new president could be planning a relocation of at least some of the brand's operations from Detroit to Manhattan, according to a new report from Reuters.
In the case of Infiniti, de Nysschen pushed for the move because moving away from the brand's Nissan overlords would allow it a bit more freedom. It's evidently a similar case for Cadillac, with Reuters speculating that such a move would help distance the brand from the corporate culture in Detroit. A Big Apple move could also attract new talent that may have considered a job with the brand but were put off by the idea of living in Detroit.
It's important to note that if such a move takes place, it likely won't affect the folks actually responsible for developing the brand's vehicles. Instead, administrative functions, including marketing, could be the focus of the relocation.
