| Car Information: | Yellow With Yellow Interior and Yellow Top
V8 400 cubic inch Motor Automatic Transmission
This super sweet ride has only 40,000 original miles on it. It
has been regularly maintained, garaged, and driven. This car's original
owner drove it weekly to the golf course and the Elks club, but never put
more than a few miles a week on it. My family bought it from his estate in
1991. My grandmother drove it and meticulously cared for the car. I bought
it from her last summer. I am selling it only because I just bought a house
and the Cadillac isn't very practical for hauling sheet rock.
This Caddy sports a triple yellow color scheme: yellow body paint, yellow
leather interior, and yellow top. This cream puff even has yellow wheel
covers. The leather is in perfect condition, the seats are extremely
comfortable, and the car is amazingly easy to drive. The interior is in
mint condition and loaded with options including: cruise, tilt/telescope,
power everything (doors, windows, steering, brakes, seat adjustment,
antenna), AM/FM/8-track (and about 50 tapes including the 78 Cadillac tape
from the factory), AC cold enough to make ice on the front seat,
auto-dimming headlights, auto on/off headlights, variable-speed
intermittent wipers, and climate control.
Under the hood is a fat V8 7 liter engine. It has never had major work done
and never needed a major work done. When I bought it, I had a mechanic
check it out and all that was needed was an oil change and four new tires.
Then I drove from St. Louis to Seattle. In Seattle, I had a 30,000 service
done (along with my 2 year old Honda). He said the car was spot on. Then, I
drove back to the Chicago area, where I now live. This car loves the
high-way. I made the 2200 mile trip in 2 days.
This car is awesome in the snow. With a curb weight of 5000 pounds and
front wheel drive, it can handle the worst of conditions.
The exterior is in good condition, but needs a few rubber filler pieces
replaced (I have the phone number for a supplier in Florida). The front
left filler between the quarter panel and the bumper was cracked and blew
off the car somewhere in Iowa. The panel below the rear license plate is
also gone. Both pieces total around $250. There is one small spot of rust
and a few nicks that need tending to. It is very superficial, but needs
attention soon. This car has new tires, new brakes, new rotors, new master
cylinder, new shocks, new battery, and a new half shaft. Burns unleaded gas
and gets 16 miles per gallon on the highway.
This car just needs a little attention to be cherry condition.
$5,000
