Up for bid is my father's 1978 Cadillac Sedan Deville. He purchased the car five years ago from NJ. The car runs, drives and shows very well for a 38 year old car. I believe the paint on the car is original with a few minor touch ups here and there. There are some minor dings and scratches consistent with the age of the car. The hand painted pin stripe still shows nicely. We have installed fiberglass quarter panel extensions on the car to replace the aging originals. As you can see this car had the wire wheel disc option which included real spoke wheels. The wheels are in good condition.
Mechanically this car is very sound. I have put about two thousand miles on the car since last August, including a trip to Pennsylvania and back. The car runs and drives very well and is very dependable. The car really floats down the road! The 425 V8 runs very strong and the Turbo 400 transmission shifts smoothly. The car has had lots of recent maintenance including plugs, wires, belts, hoses, etc. The car has a new battery, two new front tires and a new fuel tank. The shocks were also recently replaced. All of the A/C components were recently replaced, including a newer style compressor. Everything on the car appears to be in good working order including the power antenna. An aftermarket stereo systemwith Bluetooth has been installed in the car. The original radio is included with the sale.
The interior ofthe car stills shows very nicely. The seats and interior door panels are in good condition. The six way power bench seatoperates as it should. All power windows are in good working order. Thecar has a tilt and telescopic steering wheel. The steering wheel in the car is showing some signs of wear. The top dash pad also has some cracks in it.
This is a very nice driver quality car that has been well maintained.The car has been stored winters and is currently on the road and being driven. We have enjoyed the car but are ready to move on to something else. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask. If you are local, I welcome pre buyer inspections of the car. I reserve the right to end the auction early as the car is for sale locally.Car is sold as is where is. Local pick up available. Shipping is buyers responsibility.
