Harry's Thoughts

This is a very nice example that is sure to help make its new caretaker many happy memories!

THE ESSENTIALS

This is a gorgeous completely original one owner 1971 Coupe deVille (Style 68249N) having covered a mere 65,400 miles since new.  With the aging of it’s owners, this gorgeous original motorcar has travelled about 150 miles over the past 20 years; residing in Escondido, California.  This completely rust-free fully documented car is all original: never repainted as it bares its nearly perfect original Casablanca Yellow (Code 2175), original white vinyl top, etc.   This is a true survivor and is ready for touring or car shows.

This Motorcar comes with a full Certification and Warranty.  A full 50-point inspection was performed by an independent ASE Mechanic.  Review the certification and warranty details at: http://www.classicpromenade.com/buy-from-us/certified-classic-vehicles/

It has been freshly serviced with new radials and battery to make this a wonderful touring car.  It comes complete with the original owners manual and warranty information as issued by the dealer on the day that Norma and Felix Peace bought the car forty years ago.  The interior is absolutely gorgeous and with the original spectacular brocade cloth and deep pile carpeting.

We are still prepping and detailing this fabulous motorcar but we wanted to share the preliminary information with our clientele.  This Cadillac has absolutely no rot whatsoever.  The areas near the vinyl top are perfect, and since everything is original there are no fears of repair work or cover-up!

When the all new 1971 Cadillac’s hit dealer showrooms in the fall of 1970, customers loved the new look. The side panels had curves, and there were softly rounded corners where there were none before. Everything was new, from the inside out.  The all new design included new grilles, new taillights and new instrument panels. These cars are big, comfortable, roomy, and handle remarkably well considering their size. This was the last body style where one could lower all the side windows and experience that true hardtop look. Cadillac would retain this basic body through 1976, after which the new down sized models would appear.

For sheer roominess and stretch out luxury, you will not find a more comfortable car to take a trip. The large glass areas provide a wide vista to enjoy passing scenery, and the seats are supportive and comfortable, even for trips that last all day long. Once you take a trip in a 1971 Cadillac, you’ll never want to use any other vehicle for such a trip again. They’re that comfortable. Just set the Climate Control for the temperature you prefer, lock in the speed limit with the Cruise Control, press the search bar to find the FM stereo radio station that suits you, and you’re off! You’ll see why people loved these big cars for so long. Really, there’s nothing else like them for long trips. They do spoil you, and 70 mph for eight hours or longer is nothing for that big Cadillac engine.

Specifications for the 1971 Cadillac are:

Displacement: 472 CID V-8
Bore and Stroke: 4.30 x 4.06
Compression Ratio: 8.5 to 1

The overall length of this deVille is 225.8″ and the wheelbase is a smooth and comfortable 130″.  This Cadillac was set up new with a powerful Motorola two-way radio system that we have not removed.  We can either remove it, or if the new owner desires it for club tours we will leave it with the deVille.

We will be updating the site with more details and information as we complete our preparations.  This is a wonderful opportunity to by a fabulous all-original Cadillac.

Interesting Fact: The Cadillac Coupe DeVille started out as a trim level of Cadillac vehicles, but eventually became its own line in 1958, with production continuing until 2005. This full-size luxury car gets its name “DeVille” after the French translation, meaning “of the town”.   The model was first shown during the 1949 Motorama and was placed onto a Cadillac Sixty Special chassis. At launch, the going price was $3,496 which equates to roughly $31,000 today. Remembered for the sharp tailfins added to the model, the DeVille is easily distinguishable on the road. As the generations developed, the styling choices calmed by a little bit and became far smoother than before.   Over the years, the DeVille has switched between being Cadillac’s mainstream vehicle to just another vehicle in the line. With that said, it was the largest model in Cadillac’s lineup during its final year in 2005, before being renamed to the Cadillac DTS. Even though the DeVille is no longer in production, the earliest models with the unique tailfins are rare finds that many attempt to add to their garage!
