OK I'll be honest, I don't know much about this car. A strange conversation happened and I ended up buying it. I'm not a Caddy person, so I want to sell it. I've driven it all of 5 miles. 86,087 on the odometer, I believe that's accurate. No dents, just a few dings. No rust. Very nice interior. Runs down the road real nice, brakes are soft enough to probably need work if you're going to drive it. Cruise works. When I got it both front doors will not open from inside or out, you needed to crawl over the seat to get in. I did get the passenger door to open, I took the latch out and cleaned it. It was so gummed up nothing would work correctly. That door is back together and working fine. I don't plan on doing anything with the driver's door. Taking the trim panel out with the door shut is not an easy thing, and it risks damaging the trim. A hot summer day or getting it in the shop and getting it nice and warm may be enough to warm up the goo in the latch softened so the door will open. But that's for the next owner to decide. I've done enough to not have to climb over the seat back to get in and drive it. I have a good title, not in my name. It has a 425 cubic engine, runs nice. Power windows work. Power antenna does not work, I haven't had a chance to check the fuse. FACTORY AM/FM 8 track with integrated CB radio! Decent tires. Compact spare and full size. Tilt/telescope wheel. Rear defrost works. Quarter extensions are broken out (common problem), the previous owner taped plastic over them. Due to snow concerns I'd like to have it gone as soon as possible, a few weeks or less? The opening bid is my reserve. The buy it now is low compared to others that are going on ebay right now. Drive it as is, part it out, demo it I don't care. Once you pay for it, it's up to you.Contact me before sending any money via paypal. Thanks. This is for sale locally also. To clarify about the brakes...The brakes still work fine, they stop the car with no problem. The peddle just goes down further than I'm used to or I think they should. It's very possible that the rears just need to be reset to take some of the slack out of the system. There's no room in my shop and I don't want to be messing around with brakes outside this time of year.
