Cadillac DeVille (1972)
for sale
Price: US $200.00
Price: US $200.00
Nice driver Cadillac with very few excuses. Currently a daily driver.
472 runs great:
BRAND NEW cap, rotor, plugs, wires, points, air filter, oil filter, carb rebuild. Carb could maybe use a hair tweak after rebuild, but solid engine top to bottom. Solid trans, no slips or issues. Engine and trans leave no drips in the driveway - very dry! Maybe a pinhole leak or two in the exhaust, nothing major.
Body and frame are 98% rust free. The trunk lid has a couple small bubbles on it, the hood has one small bubble and there is spot under the vinyl that appears to have a bubble. Clean floors, clean frame, clean trunk. If you were to restore would be easy stuff. If you would like to just drive and enjoy they are not invasive nor do they take away from the overall nice appearance of the car. Under side has some tyical light surface oxidation, no rust. This to my knowledge has been a CA car since birth.
Paint in nice shape otherwise. One repaint that is better than a 6 footer. Call it a 3 footer. You really need to be right up on it to see the flaws. And they aren't bad either. Vinyl roof has a few flaws, nothing major. I have the missing trunk trim pieces, they just aren't mounted. There is a small dent in the hood, kind of hard to notice or photo.
The totally original interior is in very nice shape with only a couple cracks in the dash. The seats are free of tears and so are the carpets. Headliner has a little one inch slice. Power steering works great, brakes stop well. Radio works, AC does not work. Speedo and odometer work fine. Power seats and power locks work great. Front power windows work, rears do not.
BRAND NEW tires.
Overall a very nice driver, not a show car at all, but presents very well and would make for a great driver or weekend car or a super easy base for a restoration. Clean title in hand, ready to go.
No RESERVE!
My standard disclaimer/mantra for any car regardless of service or price: The car is sold with no warranty. You are buying a used car. Eventually every car will break, if you find one that doesn't please let me know. I do my ABSOLUTE BEST to offer only cars that are of TOP NOTCH service. I am not a dealer, just a guy who loves Cadillac (among other cars) and hope to pass along my passion and fervor for these cars. That said if ever you encounter an issue I do my best to provide advice, direction or even parts if I have them. Please understand that it is a used car and will have signs of use. That means please do not expect a showroom brand new car. Please adjust your expectation level to that of a 44 year old car, but however is above average for it's year. Please only bid if you intend to buy. If you would like to have an Ebay 3rd party mechanic service check out the car I MORE than welcome it. Please have the car checked out before bidding and not after, if you intend to use that service. And please, if you would like to utilize this service, contact me with more than a couple days left in the auction so we can arrange schedules. Please check your local laws and registration procedures before buying. Buying over the internet can be scary sometimes! I get it, because I am an enthusiast too!! For that very reason, I am more than happy to answer every and any question you may so you know 100% what you are buying. But, please ask any and all questions ahead of purchase! All sales are final, you are buying as-is, the sky is blue, etc, etc. Sorry to have to give the boring speech. Please feel free to ask any and all questions!! . Please
feel free to ask any and all questions
