Price: US $2,000.00
THIS IS NOT A D'ELEGANCE MODEL. THAT KEEPS POPPING UP ON THE LISTING TITLE AUTOMATICALLY.
THE ENGINE WAS BLUE PRINTED AND COMPLETELY REBUILT AT 119, 542 MILES. THE ODOMETER NOW READS 176, 337 MILES. SO 172, 337 - 119, 542 = 56, 795 MOSTLY HIGHWAY MILES.ENGINE IS THE CADILLAC 425 CUBIC INCH 7.0 LITERTHIS BABY FIRES RIGHT UP AND RUNS LIKE A CHAMP. IT HAS BEEN AND STILL IS A VERY RELIABLE CAR.I COULD JUMP INTO THIS THING AND DRIVE JUST ABOUT ANYWHERE THAT I WANT AND NOT WORRY.
THE EXTERIOR IS GM BRIGHT WHITE. IT WAS REPAINTED IN 2008 JUST BEFORE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM WHOM I BELIEVE WAS THE ORIGINAL OWNER OUT OF FULLERTON, CALIFORNIA.
THE INTERIOR IS WHITE W/BURGUNDY CARPET, DASHBOARD, SEATBELTS & REAR SPEAKER PANEL.
I DELETED THE AIR RIDE SUSPENSION AND UPGRADED IT TO COIL OVER LOAD LEVEL SHOCKS ALL THE WAY AROUND AND I HAVE STUCK WITH THIS WAY SINCE. I REPLACED THE COIL SPRINGS ALL AROUND ABOUT 4 YEARS AGO. MOOGS HEAVY DUTY COILS ARE ON IT NOW. THE CAR IS MORE STABLE IN TURNS BUT DOES NOT LOOSE ITS SMOOTHNESS OR SWAY AROUND LIKE A BOAT.THE STEERING DAMPENER SHOCK WAS REPLACED ABOUT 4 YEARS AGO AS WELL.THE ORIGINAL UPPER AND LOWER BALL JOINTS ON BOTH SIDES WERE REPLACED ABOUT 1 YEAR AGO.I HAD A WHEEL ALIGNMENT DONE A FEW MONTHS BACK WHEN I REPLACED THE FRONT TIRES.THE BRAKES WORK GREAT. DISK BRAKES ALL AROUND.
THE STARTER, FUEL PUMP, WATER PUMP, IGNITION, IGNITION SWITCH, DISTRIBUTOR, RADIATOR, FAN CLUTCH, COOLANT RESEVOIR, BELTS AND HOSES HAVE ALL BEEN REPLACED WITHIN THE LAST FEW YEARS JUST TO MAKE SURE THIS BEAUTY STAYS RUNNING.
THE POWER DOOR LOCKS ALL WORK. THE POWER WINDOWS ALL WORK. FAST SMOOTH AND STRONG. UP AND DOWN.
THE WINDSHIELD HAS A CRACK ON THE UPPER PASSENGER SIDE. MOST PEOPLE SEEM TO NOT NOTICE.
THERE IS SOME RUST UNDER THE VINYL TOP.
THE LOCK TO THE GLOVEBOX NEEDS REPLACING. IT LOCKS BUT HAS TO BE PLAYED WITH SOMETIMES. NOT A BIG THING TO FIX. I JUST HAVE NOT GOT AROUND TO IT.
THE REMOTE TRUNK RELEASE BUTTON IN THE GLOVEBOX WORKS TO OPEN THE TRUNK W/O STEPPING OUT OF THE VEHICLE.
THE SOUND SYSTEM HAS ALSO BEEN DISCRETELY UPGRADED. INFINITY KAPPA SERIES 6X9'S IN THE REAR AND KENWOOD EXCELLONS IN THE FRONT. SOUNDS SUPER CLEAR AND CRISP. I ALSO HAVE RCA CABLES AND AN AMP POWER CABLE RUNNING INTO THE TRUNK. ALL YOU NEED IS A SOME SUBS AND AN AMP AND THIS SYSTEM WILL BLOW YOU AWAY.
FULL SIZE SPARE IN THE TRUNK WITH EXTRA HUBCAPS AND ORIGINAL BUMPER JACK. ALL MAINTENANCE RECORDS, PAPER WORK AND RECEIPTS ON HAND IN A FILE.
THIS CAR HAS BEEN KEPT IN GREAT RUNNING CONDITION AND KEPT VERY CLEAN. LOOKS GOOD. SMELLS GOOD. FEELS GOOD. RUNS GREAT. DRIVES GREAT.
I CHANGE THE OIL AND OIL FILTER WITHIN EVERY 3000 MILES WITH CASTROL GTX 20-50.
THIS VEHICLE REQUIRES MINIMUM OF 91 OCTANE GAS. SHE LIKES CHEVRON SUPREME THE BEST. LASTS LONGER AND RUNS SMOOTHER. I'VE NOTICED A HUGE DIFFERENCE COMPARED TO ANY OTHER GAS BRAND THAT THIS CAR RUNS BETTER WITH CHEVRON SUPREME. 2ND TO THAT MOBIL.
THE TAGS ARE GOOD UNTIL FEBRUARY 2017.
I WILL BE ADDING MORE PHOTOS SHORTLY. ENGINE COMPARTMENT, INTERIOR, TRUNK & MORE OF THE EXTERIOR.
I HATE TO SELL THIS CAR. IT HURTS ALREADY, BUT I HAVE TO. NOW THAT I HAVE A BABY (4TH CHILD) NO ROOM FOR ALL THE CHILD SEATS TO FIT COMFORTABLY OR SAFELY. I HAD TO BUY A SUBURBAN I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR FOR ALMOST 8 YEARS AND I HAVE NO COMPLAINTS. I WOULD LOVE TO KEEP THIS CAR, BUT IT HAS TO GO. HOPEFULLY TO SOMEONE THAT WILL PAMPER HER AS WELL OR BETTER THAN I HAVE.
HAPPY BIDDING...AND GOOD LUCK...

“EXTERIOR = DRIVER SIDE FRONT FENDER IS DENTED. PASSENGER REAR DOOR HAS A DENT NEAR THE DOOR HANDLE. PASSENGER FRONT FENDER-PASSENGER FRONT DOOR HAS A SCRAPE COVERED WITH WHITE PRIMER. PASSENGER REAR BODY FILLER (PLASTIC EXTENSION BETWEEN 1/4 PANEL AND REAR BUMPER)IS CRACKING DUE TO AGE.INTERIOR = DRIVER SIDE DOOR WINDOW SWITCH PANEL IS LOOSE. HEADLINER IS SAGGING AND DISCOLORED DUE TO THE SUNROOF THAT STARTED LEAKING ONE DAY. I SEALED THE SUNROOF SHUT WITH CLEAR SILICONE CAULKING. THE LEATHER SEATS ARE STARTING TO CRACK BUT ARE STILL VERY COMFORTABLE AND NOT ALL BRITTLE AND HARD. THE CARPET HAS A CHUNK THAT SLOWLY STARTED BREAKING AWAY ON THE DRIVERS SIDE BETWEEN THE DOOR AND THE SEAT FROM WHEN I HAD THE RCA CABLES AND AMP WIRE INSTALLED. THER ARE SOME CRACKS ON TH DASHBOARD. IT ALL SOUNDS BAD WHILE READING BUT IN PERSON THIS CAR CLEANS UP REALLY WELL AND IS VERY BEAUTIFUL STILL. I'M ONLY SELLING THIS CAR BECAUSE I NOW HAVE A 4TH CHILD AND ITS NOT PRACTICAL FOR ME ANYMORE.” |
