Vehicle Description
1967 Cadillac DeVille Convertible
When you were a kid and playing outside (do they do that anymore?)
and a big Caddy would pull up and ask how to get somewhere locally,
and after you told them and they drove away, you 'd say to your
friends "someday I'm going to be driving one of those." Of course,
it was the image of success, the larger the car, the more
successful you were. In the 1960's Cadillac was synonymous with
success.
For consignment, a true 60's classic in all but showroom condition.
Documented 45,869 original miles between 3 owners (including
consigner). A great example of what TLC, and expeditious
maintenance produces.... or rather preserves.
Exterior
Flamenco Red drapes the straight steel slabs of this incredibly
long luxury cruiser. It is not known if there was a respray,
however a very close look by our experts could not confirm or deny.
We can confirm it matches the build tag code for Flamenco Red.
Additionally, on the cosmetic front, everything on the car is
original, power top, chrome, interior, trunk, trunk liner and it is
all in very good condition. Finally, the spoked wheel covers on all
four corners are amazing, and not something one sees on a Caddy
every day, but they really add bling to the car.
Interior
You know you are dealing with a very clean car, when you don't see
any dust accumulated anywhere, even on the dash area, you will see
nothing! What we do see though is a very fine red padded top dash,
clean aluminum and black unscathed plastic, the gauges and controls
that look nearly like they have never been used. An original
steering wheel fronts the dash and facing that are a blazing red
leather couch like front power seat with split back and the
niftiest chromed bar to push the seat backs forward, so you have
easier access to the back-leather bench. Thick pile carpet floods
the floor and begs for bare feet to crunch their toes into it. Door
panels are tufted and buttoned like the seats and have power
windows and mirror controls on the door pull/armrest. If you like
red, then this car will be the apple of your eye.
Drivetrain
A 429ci V8 with a Rochester Quadrajet 4V Carburetor in pristine
condition (I considered eating my lunch on top of it, however I did
not want to mess it up!) Beautifully painted valve covers, an
immaculate engine bay, with a no corrosion, no rust under the hood
environment.
Undercarriage
Very clean, rust free, structurally very stable frame and floorpan
unibody seam area. Power front drum brakes and vented rear drum
brakes are seen, as well as a good condition exhaust system.
Cadillac had what the luxury motoring public was looking for in
1967: the right combination of prestige, luxury, performance, and
creature comforts. Many Cadillac aficionados believe this body
style is the best looking of the sixties. Whether it's your
favorite or not, the 1967 Cadillac offered bolder styling than it
had for several years, and its generous proportions, comfortable
ride, and tastefully elegant interiors are impressive, no matter
what your taste in classic cars may be. This particular car
received a first place at a Cadillac LaSalle Grand National meet in
2017.
