Vehicle Detail
1970 Cadillac deVille Convertible New Top, New Dual Exhaust with Sanborn headers, 66k miles, Easy Restoration - Drive it this Summer! Previous owner installed headers and claimed the engine was dead. Got it running smooth so I believe it actually is a 66k engine, but it has an external knock. Might even be the headers rapping on the frame from an incorrect install, but I don't have the time to dig into it. See below for more details. Original Red Leather - No Rips VERY Nice Door Panels - All electrics working New Black Convertible Top with glass window Top pump & motor work well Original Color, original Leather Factory AC Power Door Locks 6 Way Seat Original 472 Engine & Turbo Hydra-matic 400 transmission 10:1 compression ratio 375 HP 525 ft lbs of torque More factory info 1970 deVille Factory Specs The engine rap does not sound internal. I've confirmed pushrods, rocker arms and bridges are good. Flywheel bolts are tight and AC compressor was not the source. AC is not working, not sure of the cause. Harmonic balancer and water pump are not loose or damaged. I do not have time to get into it, which is why I'm starting the bidding at a lower price. I could part it and make more, but would rather not. I do have another 1970 472 on a stand which ran well and has been stored indoors. This is available for an additional $400. Installation of that engine may be possible for an hourly rate (plus materials) by the winner.

The radio and door edge guards were not found when purchased. A previous owner had also removed and discarded the side body moldings, installed a thin bead rocker trim and used fleetwood skirt trim. The car does have good front floors, but will need the frame rails boxed and some rear floor work in addtion to trunk corners (the bain of this era Cadillacs). More full size pictures -> 1970 Convertible Pictures This car will drive onto a trailer, but can NOT be driven to your house. It was last registered in MA and has a good MA title and can be shipped overseas. I can help with arranging that and transport to the docks for costs and a fee.
