Find your best pirate flag and set sale for the holidays in this, "one of a kind," 1974 Cadillac Sedan Deville with the optional 501cu. in./8.2litre motor. Vin # 6D49R4Q159887 This car is 95% original from factory all numbers matching with just over 70,000 miles. I am the 3rd owner of this CLEAR TITLE flagship of American excellance of automotive engineering and elegance. The limited edition Mardi Gras interior of this car is almost flawless, not one crack in the dash, headliner 100% straight from factory, and includes original floormats. Brand new exhaust, steel brake lines, rear suspension, brakes, plugs/wires/distributor/rotor, and 1200CCA battery. I had paid over $4,000 and had body totally restored and painted with original factory numbered paint in 2008. Although, I dont think the paint job was top notch the car still has most of its original black factory undercoating over the underside of the car. The chrome is slightly pitted on door handles and beginning to peel at the back edge underside of the front bumper and there are very small touch up rust spots near edges but no damage to body. The pinstriping also needs replacement. The car ran 3 months ago when parked but does not start even when charged for unknown reasons at this point. The air conditioning needs charging and the heater core needs replacement, (brand new/in box core in trunk). The car can either be towed, or I can refer you to a reliable local mechanic. Car also needs inspection, but there's no reason it should not pass with flying colors. 8-way power front seat, trunk motor, power windows/locks, fiber optics, and all other options work flawlessly. This car drives like a magic carpet and has enjoyed many sunset rides through the country while in the company of beautiful ladies. It has always been a head turner. The Turbo 400 transmission matched with the 12 bolt posi rear is fantastic, there's no other car I've owned (and I have owned alot) that rides as wonderful as this blue butterfly. Not much money to invest and you have a showpiece. Buying this car at the Buy It Now price is stealing from me but I am willing to accept the loss. My loss is your gain. This car even comes with original trunkmat, bumper jack, owners manual, and tons of extras. This includes; extra set of factory original hubacps, full size spare and orginal spare cover, extra trim pieces, headlamp assembly's, car cover(in box), original factory eight track stereo, extra steering column, and more. Car takes premium gas and hasw 26gal tank. My description of this car is as accurate as possible and feel free to ask any questions you may have. This car is an investment to anyone willing to buy it as it is an unbelievable bargain at its current price and will only increase in value. It is unfortunate that its operating cost is now too much of a burden on me I will surely miss her, and she has never left the Borough of Tamaqua since purchased from the dealer in 1974. My wife and children thank you in advance for a wonderful holiday as the result of purchasing this beautiful piece of American History. Full payment due within 48hrs. after end of auction.
