Vehicle Detail
Up for sale is my one of a kind 1973 Cadillac Deville. Locally it is more affectionately known as "The Chariot of Fire" as it was a former show car performing in flame throwing shows and driven in Hot Rod Power Tours. The previous owner used to do the shows with this Caddy and all of the equipment to make fire has been removed. I will disclose the previous owner's contact info to the buyer if additional info/history of the car is desired (there really is A LOT of history with this vehicle). The Deville runs strong and has only 97k on the odometer. I recently had points done, a new coil pack put on and condenser. It's currently PA inspected until 10/11 and is drivable. The transmission shifts alright and engine sounds very healthy. This Cadillac sounds sinister with its .472 coupled to a much better breathing dual exhaust with flowmasters. Although the car does run and drive fine there are some things that may need addressed. The carb can use some work/cleaning. Sometimes it takes a little bit for the car to warm up, especially in the mornings but the engine does wind up idling nice. Keep in mind this is almost a 40 year old car which will undoubtedly need tlc like any other machine. As far as the body, the paint shines good and is presentable. Car has a few rust bubbles starting by fender wells and minor rust in hood (not very visible in pics). The floor pans and trunk are solid. The vinyl top could use replaced but depending on your taste is okay looking. The interior could either use a good cleaning or restoration but if you don't care its good as-is. There is a cd palyer currently installed. All lights and turn signals are operable. All glass is in good shape and power windows work. Heat and AC both work as well. I have tried to describe this car as honestly as possible. I encourage serious buyers to view the vehicle and go for a test drive. Please message or call me with any questions. This car is the very last of my Caddy collection and I hope it finds a loving new home. Thanks for looking and reading!
