CONDITION

Ever spent an afternoon driving a classy, vintage Convertible? What a fun treat!Smooth is the word for sure.Smooth powerful acceleration.Smooth handling in the curves or on the highway.Comfort, styling, and versatility all in one gorgeous ride.Look over my photos and I’m sure you’ll agree what a nice find this is. I know you’ll admire the overall provenance.The exterior appears to still wear the factory original silver metallic paint and it’s in decent condition (just a bit of clear coat fade on the rear bumper).Climb over, under and throughout - I know you’ll come up smiling!Rust? Please, this boulevard cruiser HATES body rust and you’ll be hard pressed to find any to worry about here. Yes, the Puget Sound area is famous for rain, but our winter roads are rarely salted. We only have one or two days of light snow each year. Everyone panics and stays home.

Inside you’ll find good original leather upholstery. The only real flaw is on the driver’s left bolster and it’s been redone with a patch of matching leather.I don’t think the ashtray’s ever seen a cigarette!Great headliner on the removable aluminum hardtop, too. The electronic dash gauges appear functional and bright.As you see in the photos, the odometer is reading only 80,550 miles (my wife just added another 31 miles over the weekend after I stowed the hardtop in the garage for a few days).All front carpets are clean & original.The small carpeted driver’s kick panel piece next to the parking brake pedal needs to be refitted properly.

Mechanically the car feels quite strong. Even after sitting in my Auburn, WA warehouse for a few days it starts instantly with just a pump of the gas pedal and key turn. You can’t beat the modified 4100 engines in these convertibles with their roller lifters, high-flow cylinder heads, fuel injection and tuned intake!The automatic transmission shifts great as well!The brakes feel just fine to me.All four Cadillac alloy wheels are straight and true.The 225/60R15 Cooper touring radials have at least 80-90% rubber remaining all around.The aluminum soft top is quite light and easily lifted off by two people.I wasn’t able to get the fiberglass boot cover to release so the condition of the soft top is unknown.I can see it is still properly stowed under the cover however.The only other issues we’ve encountered while enjoying the carare some intermittent seat switches,notification the ABS system is off (Ilike it that way for my driving preference) and the driver’s side sunvisor pops loose from the worn-out bracket next to the rear view mirror.The passenger window seems to just move up and down manually.That’s about it!A fun summer convertible ready for the next long-term caretaker to enjoy!
