Description of 1961 Cadillac Fleetwood

Limited production model Fleetwood 75 series 9 passenger sedan. I purchased this vehicle back in October. It had been in dry storage as the previous owner restored it. I drove the vehicle from Tacoma back home to Bellingham 140 miles. It runs beautifully, doesn't smoke, shifts as it should, steers as it should, alignment feels great straight down the road. The drum breaks have been completely redone, including a dual bowl brake master cylinder. After driving it quite a few times I find that the rear right break sticks occasionally. A proportioning valve has not been installed and would probably fix this issue. As near as I can tell, every last piece of chrome, aluminum, and stainless trim is all here. This includes all interior trims and panels, door sills, interior lights as well as a few extras, original generator, extra steering column. Everything is grouped and wrapped separately. There is no carpet. All electric windows work, the drivers side front and rear glass need to be replaced. Both the front windshield and rear window are in very good condition. There are a few small holes in the floor area on the drives side, no pan replacement is required. Lights working, heater working, It has the Aultronic Eye headlight dimmer although I don't know if it works. No ac, no power seats. The vehicle was completely stripped and painted with a single stage acrylic enamel, the sides where cut and buffed, the hood, trunk lid and roof still need to be cut and buffed... There are very few of these vehicles available in the last few years. The condition of this one makes it a real find. The reserve price is fairly low compared to the buy it now price. Please don't bid unless you're able to pay, agree to the terms of this auction, and take ownership within 30 days of purchase. I would be willing to drive it to a storage yard after that. Payment must clear before I will release the vehicle. Shipping is the buyers responsibility. There is a $500 non-refundable deposit required within 48 hours of auctions end. I make no guarantees or warranty of merchantability. Please ask any and all questions before placing a bid and I will answer as I am asked. This auction will end on Monday evening April 12th at 6:pm PDT.
