1953 Cadillac DeVille

Convertible

8 - Cyl.

Automatic

Gasoline

I believe this is a good restoration project. Engine turns free. The car is mostly complete with some extra parts which should all fit in the trunk. I do not have the wire wheel hub caps. There is some rust as you can see in the pictures. The floor had some holes and a decision was made to replace the full center section from another 53 Cad. rather than do 4 patch jobs. It was all welded in place. (see pictures) Rockers are solid except in an area on driver side where the outer rocker meets the inner rocker at the very bottom . The rest of the driver side is good as well as the passenger side. The rear seat springs are rough. Look over the pictures. Come see her in person if possible. I failed to take pictures rest of the parts that belong to the car and the extra parts. All the inner door stainless is included. If I can not get a picture I will at least list the parts later. Please feel free to ask questions. I don't do too good on the phone, so I prefer to answer your questions through eBay. Thanks! I would expect a $250.00 deposit through pay pal as soon as the auction is ended. If you do not have pay pal account contact me about bidding and paying. The balance owed is expected within 2 weeks in cash or cashier check, not through pay pal unless you want to pick up the charges. The car can remain in storage for a reasonable time to arrange for shippment. The title work will be processed through my son's dealership. You will only pay the amount you bid. I will pick up the sales tax. THANKS! On May-15-10 at 11:11:53 PDT, seller added the following information: This is a numbers matching car. Title, frame, engine and door post.
