Vehicle Detail
1968 Cadillac DeVille with believed to be 113,000 original miles. 472 CI V8 with 375 HP and 525 FT/LBS. This car is very straight and seems to be rust free with very little bondo. The exterior of the car is in excellent condition. Every trim piece is present and the chrome is in great condition ( there is a small scuff on the passenger side of the lower bumper ) and there is no surface rust. The front drums have been replaced with 12" slotted and cross drilled disc brakes with new master cylinder and proportioning valve. It also has a new fuel pump. The car is an excellent driver with tons of power on hand and tight steering and brakes. Tires have plenty of tread on them. All of the exterior lighting works with the exception of the drivers side cornering lamp, due to a burnt out bulb. Headlights are all new and all turn signals and brake lights work. Interior is all present but in need of some restoration. The front bench seat is in good condition with no rips or tears and all the power adjustments are in working condition. The rear bench also has no rips or tears. The headliner has a one inch tear near the rear view mirror that can be repaired. There is one crack in the dash pad directly in front of the driver. The rest of the dash is in great condition and all parts are present. The door panels have some cracking on the arm rests. All the lights in the dash work except the climate control and radio. The temp gauge, fuel gauge, and speedometer work well. The clock does not work. The windshield wipers work and so does the washer fluid. The radio is present but does not work. The power antennae is missing. All the power windows work well and both of the vent windows operate via the hand cranks. Power door locks work as well. There is some rust in the trunk but it has been treated and seems to have been stopped from advancing but would need some work in a full restoration. The climate control works however I added an auxiliary switch to operate the blower and it needs an AC Compressor. This car is an excellent driver and I drive it every opportunity I get. I recently bought a low mileage original and have no more room for the green machine. This car isn't perfect and that's why I love driving it so much. I've taken it on road trips up to 400 miles each way with no issues. It turns heads and gets thumbs up from young and old alike. She won a trophy in her first car show as well. Great opportunity to get into the classic car hobby with a car that can be fixed up yet can be driven today.
