Vehicle Description
For sale in our Chicago showroom is a 1968 Cadillac Deville
convertible. This fine example of a true classic land yacht
convertible is in great shape. The Cadillac has been restored to
show quality and is ready for its next adventure. The year was 1968
and while Apollo 8 was orbiting the moon and Steppenwolf's "Born to
be wild" was riding the radio waves, this Cadillac was rolling off
the showroom floor. Grab the keys, pop open the door, and step back
into history. The exterior is painted in a sky blue metallic while
the interior is comprised of navy blue leather. Of course, this
luxury-cruiser is fully loaded optioned with: power seats,
automatic convertible top, AC, hub caps, power brakes, power
steering, jack, spare tire, power windows, tilt wheel, and white
wall radial tires. Looking under the mile-long hood you'll find a
well detailed 472 CID V8 big block engine backed by an automatic 3
spd transmission TH400 transmission. The massive 7.7L V8 produces
375 HP which helps this Deville power down the long highway. In
1968 the grille had an insert with finer mesh and step down outer
section which held the rectangular parking lights just a little
higher than before. Rear end styling was modestly altered with the
deck lid having more of a rake. The most obvious change was an
8.5-inch-longer hood designed to accommodate recessed windshield
wiper-washers, which now came with three speeds standard. The
opportunity presents itself to purchase a piece of American history
that will only go up in value while allowing you to drive and enjoy
your investment. Try that with your stock portfolio. To view this
