Vehicle Detail
Up for your consideration is a beautiful 1985 Cadillac Seville. This is a low mileage car with only 74522 miles on it. To the best of my knowledge this is the correct mileage. The car is in great shape, and runs and drives well. Transmission shifts beautifully with no jerking. The car is equipped with all of the Cadillac options for 1985 except for the sunroof. It does have the factory installed faux convertible top on it which was recently replaced. It is also equipped with the optional Kelsey Hayes spoke wheels offered by Cadillac at the time. These wheels are in fair shape with a little discoloration of the chrome on a couple of them, but all in all look really great considering they are about 28 yrs. old. Another option it has that I had installed is a remote 12 disk CD player located in the trunk. This system works great and is controlled from a controller attached to the dash. The A/C is climate control as in all Cadillac's and works fine both heating and cooling. The car is finished in Firethorn Blue and had a repaint about 4 yrs. ago. The paint still looks really good. Chrome is in great shape also. it is equipped with semi-wide white wall tires which have about 60% of their tread left on them. The interior is all original with the exception of the headliner which was replaced four years ago with the original type material. The seats are all leather and in excellent shape with no tears or major scuffs. The door panels also in great shape with no cracks or tears in the vinyl. One thing that does not work on the car is the auto leveling system. About a year ago the compressor, although it still runs, does not put out enough air pressure to raise the car. I have been unable to find a replacement compressor, therefore that system is now controlled manually by a valve stem near the gas tank filler under the rear license plate. For anyone who is a fan of the so called "hump back" design of this generation of Seville this is a great example of a great auto. This design was used on the Seville from 1980 thru 1985. One of the complaints about this car was the 4.1 Liter engine not having enough power. It is true it is a little under powered but it was not meant to be used as a race or drag race car and performs beautifully on the highway. I drove this car for several years as my daily driver and now in the last several months it has only been out for an occasional car show. I am listing this with no reserve with what I feel is a low starting bid. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding.
