Description:

1979 Cadillac DeVille

1979 COUPE DEVILLE 425 7.0 LITER V8 WITH 89000 MILES
THIS IS A SOLID CAR NEEDING PAINT. VINYL TOP IS BRAND NEW. CAR IS STRAIGHT AND FREE OF DENTS. CHROME IS DECENT, BODY SIDE TRIM IS VERY NICE AND DING FREE. GLASS IS ALL EXCELLENT. ONLY SURFACE RUST FOUND ON THE TRUNK LID, SMALL AREA ON TOP OFF THE ROOF WHICH WAS TREATED PRIOR TO TOP BEING INSTALLED AND BOTTOM IF THE DOORS HAVE MINIMAL RUST. OVERALL THIS IS STRAIGHT ROT FREE CAR THAT IS IN NEED OF A REPAINT.
THE SEATS AND CARPET WERE HORRIBLY TORN WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR SO I INSTALLED A NEW CARPET SET AND FRONT AND REAR SEATS OUT OF A 1980 COUPE DEVILLE IN VERY NICE CONDITION. THE FRONT SEAT WAS A SPLIT BENCH. THE NEW SEAT IS A FULL BENCH AND WOULD NEED TO BE WIRED TO WORK. IT IS IN A COMFORATABLE POSITION AT THIS TIME AND I'M SURE WOULDN'T BE A BIG JOB TO WIRE IN. THE HEADLINER IS OK, DOOR PANELS ARE IN NICE SHAPE WITH A FEW CRACKS ON THE ARMRESTS (COMMON). IT HAS THE FACTORY RADIO AND A MANUAL ANTENNA WAS INSTALLED IN PLACE OF THE POWER ANTENNA. THE DASH PAD IS CURRENTLY COVERED IN A MEXICAN BLANKET TYPE MATERIAL. I DO HAVE ANOTHER DASH PAD TO GO WITH THE CAR THAT CAN BE DYED TO MATCH. CLIMATE CONTROL WORKS BUT I DID REMOVE THE A/C WHEN THE MOTOR WAS OUT OF THE CAR. I HAVE ALL PARTS NEEDED TO REINSTALL. POWER WINDOWS AND LOCKS WORK AS DESIGNED.
THE CAR IS SITTING ON 4 NEW HANKOOK WHITEWALL TIRES AND FACTORY WIRE HUBCAPS. PRIOR TO MY OWNERSHIP THE BRAKING SYSTEM WAS REPLACED INCLUDING THE CALIPERS, PADS AND ROTORS, BRAKE LINES AND REAR WHEEL CYLINDER, SHOES AND DRUMS. STOPS AS IT SHOULD WITH NO NOISE OR PULLING. I REMOVED THE ENGINE ASSEMBLY AND RESEALED WITH ALL NEW GASKETS OIL PAN TO INTAKE INCLUDING HEAD GASKETS, FRONT AND REAR CRANK SEALS ETC. INSTALLED A NEW OIL PUMP AND PICK UP, NEW TIMING CHAIN, WATER PUMP, FUEL PUMP, ALTERNATOR, STARTER, UPPER AND LOWER RADIATOR HOSES, DRIVE BELTS, SPARK PLUGS, WIRES CAP AND ROTOR. MOST VACUUM LINES REPLACED AS NECESSARY. MOTOR MOUNTS WERE REPLACED AND THE CARBURETOR WAS REBUILT BUT COULD BENEFIT FROM FINE TUNING. THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER WAS REMOVED (LEAKING) AND REPLACED WITH A STRAIGHT PIPE SINCE NOT NEEDED DUE TO THE AGE OF THE VEHICLE IF REGISTERED AS A ANTIQUE. THE CAR RUNS WELL, TRANSMISSION SHIFTS AS IT SHOULD.
WHILE THE ENGINE WAS OUT IT WAS CLEANED AND PAINTED FACTORY GM BLUE, THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT WAS CLEANED AND I COATED THE FRAME WITH POR15, PAINTED ALL STRUCTURAL PARTS ALSO. I REMOVED BUT HAVE ALL THE PARTS FOR THE CRUISE CONTROL, REAR LEVELING SUSPENSION AND AUTRONIC EYE.
I HAD EVERY INTENTION ON FINISHING THIS CAR THAT IS WHY I WENT THROUGH THE TROUBLE OF ALL THE ENGINE WORK. I HAVE 7 OTHER CARS AT THIS TIME AND DON'T HAVE THE TIME TO COMMIT TO THEM ALL. THIS IS ONE THAT I NEED TO LET GO TO THE NEXT CADILLAC ENTHUSIAST. THE CAR IS LOCATED IN GILBERTSVILLE, PA AND CAN BE SEEN MOST NIGHTS OF THE WEEK OR WEEKENDS. I CAN SHIP ANYWHERE AT THE EXPENSE OF THE WINNING BIDDER. THE CAR IS SOLD AS-IS WHERE IS WITH NO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND. I HAVE DESCRIBED THE CAR TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE OWING HUNDREDS OF CADILLACS OVER THE LAST 30 YEARS.
CASH IS PREFERRED BUT I WILL ACCEPT A CASHIER'S CHECK ONCE CLEARED. I EXPECT THE CAR TO BE PICKED UP 7-10 DAYS AFTER THE END OF THE AUCTION. CLEAN PA TITLE IN HAND.
THANK YOU FOR LOOKING AND GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
