This is an absolutely beautiful Cadillac. Canary Yellow shines bright. There are a couple of dings in molding strip. There are no dents. There are very small hairline cracks forming in the body fillers in between the tail lights and body. This is well known to happen in Cadillac's from that era. No rust and no rot!! Car has never seen snow or salt. Originally from California where the only thing that harmed this car was the sun. Steering wheel has cracks in the base which do not interfere with operation. Steering wheel itself has sun damage. Dash Board has a few cracks in it. There is a custom made dash cover to hide these cracks. Right side hood spring is missing. I am the third owner where I purchased this vehicle from a Classic Car Dealership in New York in 2007. I have kept up with the basic maintenance. Full complete tune up, fuel filter, tires, oil changes, belts, hoses, thermostat, antifreeze, washing and polishing, and recently had the transmission serviced. Although the trans still leaks a little bit but shifts so smooth you barely feel it. Car glides along like you are riding on air. Engine runs fantastic and starts every time. Plenty of chrome that shines. Bumper fillers below trunk lid and around license plate were partly missing and cracked in these pictures. Since then they have all been replaced. There is an aftermarket AM/FM Cassette player with 4 speakers and power antenna that you control from inside the vehicle. Power trunk button in glove box. Headlights are controlled manually by operator or by setting them to come on by themselves. A/C was converted so you can re-charge with today's refrigerant sold at most auto stores. This vehicle is super clean. From the outside to the inside. Even under the hood! This car was only caught in the rain 2 times and was never driven from Oct through April as I never wanted it exposed to those winter elements. I babied this car as I hope the new owner will as well. I really hate to part with it but I just do not have the time associated with owning an older car anymore. I don't even have this car with me. It is stored 15 miles away under lock and key so even if i wanted to take it out it's a hassle. So rather than just keeping something I hardly use anymore I would like to sell it to someone who would like to and is able to keep it close and take good care of it. This car is a truly beautiful automobile in great shape for being 36 years old. Any defects are from age. I have honestly listed all defects known to me. Car will be sold as is. I lowered the price well below what I paid for this 7 years ago and what I have put into it. The person who buys this car is really getting one heck of a great deal. Any questions you can email me and I will be happy to answer in full detail. Thank you for looking and good luck bidding!!
