Vehicle Detail
For sale is my 1961 Cadillac Deville. It has the (I believe original) 390 V8 with 4 Barrel carburetor and automatic transmission. It has 88k original miles and it does run, drive, and stop. Car weighs 4,710 lb's and is almost 20 feet long! It will need some work and finishing touches. All glass is good besides crack in driver side glass shown in picture. The power steering works, power brakes work, power windows work (rears need some lubrication), all doors including trunk and hood open, shut, and lock, exhaust is quiet, all tires hold air, no leaks from oil or anti freeze or any other fluid, radio works (only has 1 speaker), blower motor works, wipers work and have new blades, horn works, all lights work, and all gauges work. I rebuilt the master cylinder and wheel cylinders and it has all good brakes and drums. They work good, back brakes could be adjusted better. The front and rear seats have covers on them, the seats underneath are tore up. It has carpet in it that isn't terrible but could use replacement, depends on how far your going with it. Headliner is there and has 2 or 3 small holes. All doors have their panels on but will need attention. The one hood hinge goes up and down hard it needs some WD-40. I fiberglass'd the front of the hood and have the chrome trim for it in the truck, it will need more attention to be 100%. The body is solid and most of the primer'd spots are covering where paint was chipped, not rust.I patched the trunk with a sheet of metal I had laying around but I am no body shop. The whole car will need more light body work before it can be painted. It has all 4 original hubcaps and both original rear fender skirts.The chrome is all there besides both rear lower quarter trim. Bumpers have rust on the surface and front bumper will need 2 holes patched I put steel tape on so no-one cuts them self on it. It does run, drive and stop but I would tow it out of here until you fine tune everything. I have the idle set a little high so I can move it around, it will need carburetor adjusted to be 100%. It does not come with a battery in it. Look at all the pictures and ask any questions you have through e-bay and I will be glad to answer. This car is a very solid restoration piece, and with a weekend or two it could be a great summer ride. It comes with a bill of sale and I will mail you the transferable registration when it comes in the mail from the DMV. I enclosed a picture of the non-transferable registration I have in my name to prove I own it. Pick-up only at zip 13329, New York. No reserve, high bidder takes it!
