"The Coupe de Ville is one of the most popular of all Cadillacs,
and it's great new beauty and graciousness will make even more a
favorite of Cadillac enthusiasts. Its elegant new styling is
crowned by an exclusive new roof design with classic upper rear
quarter panels. Its long, low beauty is highlighted by a single
sweeping contour from front to rear. Now, for 1967, the reasons for
choosing this exciting motor car are even more numerous and
evident." From the 1967 brochure.
For consignment, a 1967 Cadillac Coupe DeVille with a title
verified 146,259 actual miles. This big Caddy with its Detroit
ironsides, luxury appointments and dripping with mid 60's elegance
is sure to not be on stage here too long because these have become
desirable stars in their own right.
Exterior
Photographers will be burning up flashbulbs clamoring to get a
glimpse of this long and strong '67 and the images he captured will
show every aspect of this celebrity draped in Baroque Gold, large
straight steel all minding their gaps nicely. Up front we see a
gleaming chrome bumper framing an egg crate grille with outboard
mounted signal lamps. Dual stacked headlights flanking a large and
long hood with a cloisonne Cadillac crown and the V Chevron badge
below in excellent condition leads the way. We make our way back
and window surround trimmings are good, and up high covering the
roof is a near flawless brown vinyl top that adds some allure to
the gold. The rear, with its gleaming vertical tail lights within
the bumper on either side frame an enormous trunk lid. 18-inch
Ridler wheels in chrome are wrapped in 235/60R18 blackwall radials
all around. Imperfections include bubbling the paint, various chips
and scratches, slight gap issue on the hood, and some deplating on
the bumper.
Interior
The talk of the town on awards night is always who and what is she
wearing? Well with a swing of the doors I'll tell you...numerous
tactile surfaces abound on the door panels in the form of buttoned
and stitching puffy beige and beige carpeting. Padded beige leather
panels are broken up by lots of chrome trimmings and power toggles
for windows and a sole crank for the vent window. Up front, the
split bench is coated in sheep skin while underneath it, a beige
Dutchess pattern broadcloth surrounded by smooth beige leather on
the bolsters. The rear bench is uncovered and shows off the
patterned cloth and also shows some light staining and an armrest
in the center with the fronts being protected by plush soft
sheepskin covers. It's pure GM design up front on the dash with a
mixture of padded vinyl and chrome bezels, aluminum strips, and a
heater/defroster controller complete with full cigarette station
hanging below the dash. We note the addition of a new AM/FM stereo
within the dash and an aftermarket AM/FM/CD stereo below. Up top is
a pristine beige headliner, and bottom is nicelightlystained beige
carpet. Not to be overlooked is the addedbackup camera atop the
dash that will help you navigate all 224" of overall length when in
reverse.
Drivetrain
Under the hood, a big 429ci V8 sits comfortably in a nicely aged
unrestored engine bay. It is topped by a 4-barrel carburetor, and
has a TH400 3-speed automatic transmission on the back. Keeping
things rolling down the highway is a 2.91 geared economy rear axle,
as if fuel mileage matters when you have this much opulence.
Undercarriage
A light coating of surface rust is seen on some frame parts and
peppers the usual suspects. Overall though, it is structurally
sound, floor pans are very nice, and suspension is fairly clean
with a recentcoating of black rust proofing. The rockers and body
hangers are strong, and coil springs are seen on all 4 corners and
these work in conjunction with independent front suspension and 4
link rear. Power drum brakes for all corners and a stainless steel
muffler is on for the single exhaust exhale.
Drive-Ability
She fired right up and after a nice warmup it provided a fine drive
on the test loop, offering nice acceleration, good handling for a
large vehicle, and ultra-smooth ride. Braking is top notch, and
comfort and conveniences are all in working order with the
exception of the clock. While Classic Auto Mall represents that
these functions were working at the time of our test drive, we
cannot guarantee these functions will be working at the time of
your purchase.
Talk about curb appeal, the stately presence of this DeVille
overshadows any minor imperfections you find. We wouldn't hesitate
to show it off and while you don't need a CDL to drive this
behemoth, it's going to feel much bigger than your Subaru, and a
lot more special.
