Vehicle Detail
Hello Cadillac fans & those collectors that LOVE BIG FINS as well as those people that just love the unusual !!! This 1961 Cadillac convertible I have for about 2 years or so. It was restored by previous owner and would be consider a presentable driver. I recently had all of the brakes done and new front spring shocks installed as well as a going over by my mechanic. I last drove it any distance in the fall, recently I have only driven around my neighborhood. The previous owner used to drive it regularly to Maryland from New York. Being critical, The paint is good/nice overall for a driver, being great in some places and just ok in others; the interior is nice, the chrome (apparently rechromed a few years ago) is nice overall with a small spot lifting on the front pass side. Starts every time, and runs well. I think it is an Edlebrock carburator? Odometer reads 67,937 as best I can read it(a bit faded). Nice carpet inside & matching carpeted trunk. A "SHARP" looking convertible, for the person that LOVES BIG FINS! Many collectors love 1961 Cadillac BEST above the 1959 & 1960 having both the high "shark fins" AND the lower body "fins". I love 1959, 1960 & 1961 and to a lesser extent 1962. I have had all of them through the past 30 years as a car collector. Thank you! I have 100% POSITIVE FEEDBACK from 15 YEARS ON EBAY!!! So, you can bid with confidence or do the BUY IT NOW option if you are sure that you want the Mercedes 6.3 . ALL of my previous buyers have loved the cars that I have parted with through the years, both from my collection and others that I had found -they are ALWAYS SOMETHING RARE or INTERESTING! Well, Please do feel free to email me with questions or email for my tele# to call. I am selling it as one expect for a 52 year old car, although in nice condition, I hereby sell it AS-IS WHERE IS and ofcourse recommend that You come in person to see the car or send someoneon your behalf. A $500 Non-refundable good faith deposit is required for BUY IT NOW or within 24hrs of auctions end, with balance in full to follow within 7 days or less. Clear, open "Title" will be sent upon payment clearance. Please have all funds ready BEFORE bidding, I am selling because I need the space and have little time to spare, so please be ready to arrange quick pickup or shipping. I will help you arrange this and for European buyers I can help find you a flatbed to New Jersey ports for Europe. The 1961 & 1962 CADILLAC CONVERTIBLE can bring upwards of $40,000- $60,000+ in Superb condition (researched auction records); This car is priced VERY LOW BECAUSE I PLAN TO SELL AND NOT WAIT FOR A GREAT PRICE, I AM GOING TO SELL IT THIS WEEK or EVEn TONIGHT IF SOMEONE DOES THE BUY IT NOW! The Reserve is ofcourse a bit lower than the BUY IT NOW price, and I have a perfect "100% RECORD, EVERY SINGLE CAR that I have ever parted with over the years has sold on Ebay and my buyers have always been happy, so I am sure that a Cadillac Convertible with great big fins like this one will sell pretty quickly,. A VERY COOL CAR!. I'd always rather take a bit less and have it sold quickly, that is why they always sell! PLEASE only bid if you have all of the funds ready and can pick the car up quickly, I need the space within a week or so. I believe that my "buy it now" price is far below what others would ask for a classic milestone car like this one! I look at ebay regularly, I would not be surprised to see another seller ask about $28,000-$35,000 for this car, but I have priced it low, to be a good buy, so that it is sold quickly. Thank you!
