1990 Cadillac Allante Convertible up for auction with NO RESERVE 4.5 V8, 112k original miles. With the overdrive transmission the Caddy will get over 20 mpg on the highway. This Allante is a late 1990 model, it has some improvements over the early 1990 models including convertible top release motors on top of the windshield and increased horsepower. Mechanically: the Caddy has had a recent fuel injection service (cleaning and replacement of three injectors) and a tuneup, has a nice throttle response with impressive acceleration. The digital dash works properly but one side is a little dim at night. The driver's power seat doesn't move, the switch needs cleaning or or a seat motor replacement. The top and windows work properly. The exhaust is a bit loud, she could probably use a new muffler. The a/c doesn't blow cold, the dash display shows "Low Refrigerant" when you turn it on but the compressor does have a belt on it, probably just needs a recharge. The engine turns over easily, the fuel injection allowing a simple turn of the key to start the car. Cosmetically the Allante shows very well, the original paint still in great condition, nice metallic pearl finish. The bumpers and grill are in good shape, no dents or scratches. The dash has some sun damage, it has a top of the line Suede Dashmat cover that matches the interior. The console, carpet, door panels and rear panels are nice, no cracks or damage. Modern CD/MP3/Ipod compatible stereo mounted in glove box with new speakers in the doors, sounds great when top down cruising. Glove box closes to hide stereo when not in use. Smal crack in the bottom left of the windshield, about two inches, it's always passed inspection. These are all the pix I have right now; some are the pix I submitted for Classic Insurance ($290 a year for full comprehensive), some are from a car show. This is a ten day auction and I'll have more shots (interior, engine) when the weather clears up, probably Monday. If not, you can check my feedback- I'm a classic car nut with a particular fondness for Caddies and buyers have been pretty happy with the cars I've sold. Cruises nicely on the highway, holds the road perfectly. Engine starts easily, doesn't leak anything, garage floor always dry when I pull her out. Runs very strong, tracks straight as an arrow and is a pleasure on the highway. She idles well, shifts smoothly, stops easily and the suspension is sporty. Drives overall like a Cadillac Roadster should. She's roadworthy, all directional/brake/turn signal/headlights work as well as the horn and wipers. The underside is solid as the Allante has always been a Garage Queen. I love driving the car but finances are what they are and I need to sell. I reserve the right to end the auction early as the Caddy is for sale locally and I'm open to buy it now offers as well. Modern classic Caddy convertible that will only appreciate in value. Any questions feel free to email or call 914-224-3230On Jun-22-13 at 13:21:44 PDT, seller added the following information: Here are some additional pix of the Allante. I got it out of storage a few days ago and have been driving it since we've had nice weather. It started right up after sitting for over four months. The tires are showing some dry rot and should be replaced and the crack on the lower left of the windshield has spread a bit, it's about four inches long now. As you can see in the pix the bottoms of the seats have been covered with new leather, the previous owner did it. It looks OK but you may want to have it redone. Otherwise she's been running great, a lot of fun to drive with great acceleration and handling. After uploading I realized I didn't take any shots of the engine, I'll get them tomorrow.
