Vehicle Detail

buyitnowpaymelots Store Normal 0 This is one of 30 vehicles being sold from an estate auction. More info is available at www.houseofmouseracing.com. This is a court-mandated auction to which terms must be strictly adhered. Please read terms and estate auction description carefully. A bid on this auction will serve as acknowledgment that these terms have been reviewed and are understood. No auctions will be ended early or sidestepped. No side deals or trades. (Please don’t ask – I won’t respond.) You are bidding on a very nice 1976 Cadillac Fleetwood Sixty Special Brougham with 8,439 original miles. The car appears to be 100% original down to the tires. The exterior is Dark Brown Metallic (Chesterfield Brown) with a nice beige interior and Tan padded vinyl top. This car has many options including working air conditioning. Car starts right up, runs, drives, steers and stops fine. The car was last on the road in 1986 according to the ’86 plates on the car. The Body is very nice, shiny and straight but does have one tiny ding on the pass. side rear door. All the moldings are on the car and are very nice, shiny, straight and for the most part dent and pit free. The chrome bumpers are straight, nice and shiny with no pitting. All the glass looks nice, no cracks or delamination. Note: All of the glass has the VIN number etched into it by a security company. Weatherstripping and rubber are good to excellent shape. The padded vinyl top is nice and damage free but does have one area that looks to be stained from a very old bird dropping. No restoration work was done to the original paint and top by me except for washing the car. The paint is in excellent condition and is very shiny but will need a little polishing to remove the light oxidation that is visible in certain light. The Interior is Beige and is in very nice shape. No cracks in the dash or tilt steering wheel. Most everything works. All power windows, locks and trunk work. Radio is am/fm with 8-track and power antenna works. A/C works but there is a control that needs to be replaced as it does not engage the clutch on the compressor. I did bypass the control as a test and the clutch does engage. The system does work and it gets cold. Clock works, wipers work, and gauges as far as I can tell all work. The interior has no bad odors or evidence of mold or mildew. Also includes carpeted foot rests. Standard and Optional Equipment on this car are... automatic climate control, bumper impact strips, clock, automatic glove box light, High Energy Ignition, inside hood release, lamp monitors, remote-control left-hand outside mirror, litter receptacle, automatic trunk light, map light, power six-way front-seat adjuster, power front disc brakes, power door locks, power windows, power steering, AM/FM radio including power antenna and 8-track cassette, Soft Ray tinted glass, spare tire cover, tamper-resistant odometer, Turbo Hydra-matic transmission, washer fluid level indicator, carpeted floor mats, carpeted rear foot rests and steel-belted whitewall tires. The Drivetrain is a 500ci engine which runs smooth and idles nice after sitting so long. It is still running on the original gas with new gas and additive mixed in the tank. The engine does not smoke, make any unusual noises or overheat. The car did run for over an hour while troubleshooting the a/c without problems. The car ran for another 30 minutes at idle with the air going full blast and no overheating or engine light! I did drive it around and it runs good and steers fine. No major oil leaks or transmission leaks. The transmission operates as it should from what limited driving I can do. No slipping or other problems. The engine compartment looks factory new with very little degradation to the finishes of the metal parts. The Undercarriage is in great condition. No rust anywhere. Everything looks new! The floors and frame look like new. Other info: There are some scrapes on the point of the front bumper and a small scrape on the passenger side front bumper end down low. There are 3 small cracks in the rear driver side vinyl bumper filler panel. Spare tire looks original. The carpeting will need some minor cleaning from the limited use it saw. The factory jack and all accessories are in the trunk. Trunk liner is in nice condition with no rips or damage. Again no attempt was made to restore this car! Just clean and make it presentable for auction. It will need to be detailed to make one excellent example of a 1976 Cadillac. I recommend the Cadillac be trailered since it sat for so long. It could be driven onto a trailer or an auto-transport without the use of a winch. Car can be viewed, started but not driven per “The State of Ohio Court” since there is no insurance on the vehicle. Car comes with one set of factory keys, clear Ohio title, and some factory paperwork - no dealer invoice. Due to space limitations and subsequent auction listings, the car must be paid for and picked up with in 7 days unless both parties agree on other arrangements. If the terms of this auction are not adhered to, the car will be immediately relisted. Shipping is the winners’ responsibility. I can help with local shipping and work with your shipper. If shipping out of the country I do have a shipper that can help make your arrangements. He ships mostly to the Scandinavian countries. If you are requesting additional pictures please send me your email address. Ebay will not let me add any more pictures to the ad. Estate Auction Description This vehicle is part of a group of 30 (mostly collector) vehicles being sold in an estate auction. We have been contracted to prepare them for auction and then direct the sale thru the Ohio Probate Court. For information on more of the vehicles, please see our website at http://www.houseofmouseracing.com. Our contract states that all purchases must be transacted through eBay auction. No auctions will be ended early or sidestepped. There will be no side deals or trades. We were told that all of them ran and drove when they were parked in storage. However, that was several decades ago. We have no other knowledge of the history of these vehicles. We have made an attempt to see if the motor runs within minimal monetary and time budgets. Our listing represents the best of our knowledge obtained from transporting, cleaning and evaluating the vehicle – but there are no guarantees. There is no warranty or representation that the vehicle is drivable in its current state. You are welcome to arrange a viewing of this vehicle during evening or weekend hours. After processing fees are deducted, the remainder of the proceeds from the sale of these vehicles will be donated to 501(c)3 charity Rustler Ranch, Inc. Rustler Ranch, Inc., a tax-exempt public charity located in Ashtabula County, Ohio, whose mission is that of providing a shelter and refuge for homeless or disadvantaged youth as well as providing educational and recreational programs for youth groups from the inner city. Amounts paid for this vehicle over fair market value may, in some cases, be tax deductible. Please check with your tax professional to ascertain whether this would apply to your purchase. Terms: Contact must be made by the buyer within 48 hours. A non-refundable 10% deposit is due within 36 hours of end of auction close, balance due within 7 days of auction close as cash, wire or Paypal only. Due to space limitations and other upcoming auctions, buyer MUST take possession within 7 days of auction close unless other arrangements are agreed upon. I do not finance. No trade or barter. I am not responsible for any fees, or taxes or any out-of-pocket costs. Buyer is responsible for all state, county, city taxes and fees, as well as title/registration fees in the state that the vehicle will be registered. No warranty, sold as is. Vehicles listed have clear Ohio titles. Will not ship but will try to work with you if you hire a shipping company. However, since this is my residence, arrangements will have to be made for the shipping company to pick up the car when I can be home to attend it. Buyer is responsible for all shipping and related arrangements and payments. Vehicle must be paid in full before it leaves my premises and I assume no responsibility for damages incurred after leaving my premises. Remember when placing a bid you are entering a legally binding contract. Do not bid unless you plan to purchase this car. Ask all of your questions and/or come see the vehicle before you commit by bidding, because a bid is a commitment to purchase. As you can see by my feedback (100% positive), I describe my items accurately. I have sold other vehicles on eBay to happy purchasers. Good luck and happy bidding.
