Starting in 1965 the De Ville became Cadillac's mid-line
offering bested only by the Eldorado. The redesigned De Ville
featured vertically oriented headlamp clusters allowing for a
redesigned larger grille opening. The rear tailfins were reoriented
and a straight rear bumper was also fitted. The rounded body lines
of the previous generation were sharpened, giving the De Ville a
more distinct appearance. Curved frameless rear windows were also
fitted and tempered glass backlights were included for the
convertibles. Other new features included: front and rear safety
belts and lamps for the rear passenger compartment, trunk and
glovebox. "De Ville" script nameplates adorned the end of the rear
quarters and a redesigned perimeter construction for the frame
allowed the engine and transmission to be repositioned for
increased interior room. This custom convertible features a
reupholstered leather interior with embroidered seats, shaved door
handles, and automatic popping door locks. Under the hood lies the
numbers matching factory rated 340 hp 429 cu in (7.0 L) V8. The
gears are shifted by a TH400 automatic transmission that sends
power through the original rear end. This car originally came from
the factory with A/C and has all the original equipment in place.
It also features power steering, power windows, power brakes, and
tilt steering wheel.
