Production Number Engine Number: 1481288 (Correct for �64 Deville,
believed original) Evolve Motors and Chicago Car Club are pleased
to present this 1964 Cadillac DeVille Convertible! What We Know: We
purchased this car from a gentleman in North Dakota who had owned
it for just over twenty years. As it sits, this car in is in great
driver-level condition, having been garage-kept and treated well.
It's big, fantastic to look at, and glides down the road like it's
riding on air. As this car is a �64, it's actually the first year
of the DeVille Convertible. While there are some minor cosmetic
blemishes, the car feels phenomenal on the road, is quite nice
underneath, and still retains the original 7.0L 429cid V8. For
somebody that wants a �64 DeVille Convertible that they plan to
actually drive, rather than just confine to a collection, this car
is an excellent fit. The Exterior: White over white suits the
DeVille Convertible very well. While the convertible top is in
great shape, we rarely find ourselves putting the top up. It just
looks and feels so right top-down. White paint is a respray, and
does show some signs of age. When we got the car, there was a large
scratch on the driver's door; we removed the door and repainted it.
As a result, the finish on the driver's door is a bit better than
the rest of the car. There are a few scratches that have been
touched up scattered about the car. The most significant is on the
lower portion of the driver's rear quarter, ahead of the rear
wheel. The other is on the lower driver's front fender. There's
some minor chipping on the lip/underside of the hood, which has
been touched up and is only noticeable upon close inspection. There
are some small bubbles beginning to form under the paint at the
very bottom corners of the trunk lid. Paint hasn't cracked and no
rust is showing, but there are bubbles. There is a small bit of
rust visible on the underside of the passenger rear corner, just
below the taillight's chrome piece. There is also some minor
bubbling at the forward bottom corner of the passenger rear
quarter, right where it meets the rear wheel skirt. The body is in
excellent shape, with no door dings or damage. Chrome is very nice
throughout; chrome has a mirror-like finish, though there are a
couple light dings on the rear bumper. Hubcaps are in great shape,
with no dings or damage. Tires, while still with tread, are old and
therefore should be replaced sooner rather than later. The
Interior: The cushy white leather cabin is a great place to be;
this car is extremely comfortable and the chrome-heavy dash looks
very good. The dash is in fantastic shape, with no cracks or
discoloring. Chrome is free of oxidation. Front seats are in nice
shape, though the buttons on the front seat bottoms have been
removed. There is some minor cracking on the seat-backs, but
nothing major and nothing through. Rear seats have their buttons
and are in slightly better shape. Black carpeting is excellent
throughout, with no fraying or discoloring. Black leather boot
cover has a couple small tears where it meets the top of the rear
seats. Powered systems are all functional, which includes windows,
front seats, convertible top, radio, fan/defrost, lights, signals,
and all gauges. The analog clock in the gauge cluster does not
appear to be functioning. Five-digit odometer reads 12,659, which
we believe has rolled over once. Under the Hood / Under the Car:
This car runs and drives very, very well. We've been taking it out
for lunch pretty routinely here at the shop. I cant think of any
other car that fully grown men are excited to hop in the backseat
of. There are no tendencies or noises
