1960 Flat Top 4dr Hardtop CADILLAC
IF You have less then 10 feedbacks, you have to email me if you bid on the car. If you dont, we will cancel it. IF we email you to check your sincerity on buying the car and dont get a reply within 24 hours.. You will be cancelled and blocked too from bidding. We suggest viewing our auction on normal large monitors and or tablet to get the most out of our large easy to view pics. BRIEF DESCRIPTION: Starts and runs on its own all the time, even after sitting a week. IF I had a good set of tires on it, Id drive it everyday to work while fixing it up! this Caddy is has been in the SW - NM / AZfor as long as we can track its history, over 25 yrs. I knew of this car was it still had its original patina-ed black paint, and wish the last owner would of left it alone, but they decided to put a Macco job on it this color. Luckily they didnt do the jambs etc, so changing it back to black wouldnt be that hard. Its a running driving car that needs tires right away and possibly a tune up. The gas in the tank is about 6 months old. Brakes work fine, but the hoses are 50 yrs old. Super solid and straight body, thanks to been living in the SW most of its life. New Mexico and Az. Needs restoration, but wouldnt take much to make this your own beast. Do the interior, some 20" correct wheels and tires, some minor mechanicals and youd have a pretty sweet ride. Starts with the key everytime, idles and drives nice too.
Check out the pics and more info below...thanks
DONT BID UNLESS YOU HAVE THE FUNDS IN HAND, apparently some people who use ebay arent smart enough to understand the rules. So if you have under 10 feedbacks, Ill be emailing you if you bid to make sure you are legit, if we do please reply or we will cancel your bid. Up for Auction: LOW FAIR RESERVE !!! These cars are getting harder to find esp in this condition that are still affordable to most buyers.
DRIVETRAIN: the BB 390 4v runs and sounds good. No smoke or weird noises. Factory AC car, all there but probably will need some work to get it up and running again. Very original under the hood, but it looks like the last owner tried repainting some stuff under the hood. The patina inho looked better. Trans shifts fine, it had a small leak but think it was just the pan gasket. Car runs and drives well for its shape. I would suggest new brake lines right away if you where going to start driving it on the streets just because they are old and dry.
INTERIOR: take a look, the AZ sun and heat have taken their toll on the dash and rest of the interior. Some missing parts shown in the pics do come with the car loose in the trunk. Floors has surface rust at best. I stood on them and they are not soft at all. Original panels and upholstery are pretty baked, but all the stuff seems to be there. Front power bench seat works too. EXTERIOR:the body amazingly straight for its age,Super solid rockers, quarters etc. Check out the pics. Stainless trim looks very complete and in amazing shape. Chrome on the bumpers is very nice too. All the glass is good too except for the dr side front door (flat glass) is cracked. The front and rear wrap around glass is unique to these Flat top cars and the car has amazing lines, that flow with the perfect size rear fins. The rear lights on this car are like a work of art at night. Some of the missing trim not shown on the car does come with the car loose in the trunk. See pics. All the PW are currently working too. Again, the car was originally black and the previous owner thought it would look good this color. The paint is good from far, but far from good. I think the car needs to go back to black, no two ways about it.
SUSPENSION:the suspension looks normal AND it rides and drives like your typical CADDY !! Glides down the road like on a cushion of air ! Will need tires ASAP.Not sure if all the bushings and stuff are okay, but no weird clunks or noises coming from the suspension while driving and tires wear looks normal. Speaking of which, there is NO Rot or major rust in the trunk under whats left of the original carpet et. Minimal rust under the car, making taking this car apart, almost a breeze !!

There you have it, probably The BEST represented Caddys on Ebay. Shows you all the good as well as any bad, hope you appreciate them. We put a lot of time and effort in marketing our cars and it shows. People wait months for a car this solid to come up for sale and even if you have to pay shipping to your area, it still beats paying a body shop to hopefully fix a rusty car for weeks on end. Having as much as the original steel on a restored car these days speaks volumes. Also, if you buy a car thats been "restored", who knows what sort of surprises are hidden under new paint or thick undercoating. People are flipping cars all the time when most of the jobs are fast, for a quick buck and quality suffers.
Email us with ANY questions before you bid please Our Impeccable FEEDBACK speaks for itself. We show you as much feasibly possible via pics. Dont let auctions withlittle to no pics try to fool you.
