1957 Cadillac DeVille Additional Info:

Here's your opportunity to owntotal time capsule blast from the past, never molested totally bone stock 1 owner original car. Bought new in Los Angeles California, car is extremely dry, original paint, original interior (the brownish yellowed thing on the seats is the original factory optional clear palstic seat protectors), original drive train with only 71,555 miles. Body is pretty nice, couple of dings and scuffs on the original Lacquer paint, that would polish if I didn't want to keep the oxidized satin look and patina it has. For an original car, other than needing a couple pieces of trim, its almost impossible to find in the condition... You don't recreate this look like you see people trying to make now.
Brakes redone from front to back in and out and have receipts (including new drums). Just had a tune up, radiator redone, thermostat replaced, and had a water pump a couple years back. T
he windshield wiper switch needs to be fixed, heater works, but I think the heater core needs to be replaced. Original 365 engine and Hydra glide trans, runs and drives good. Been in Inglewood, California all its life and nothing except the carb, air cleaner and red paint on the valve covers, has been modified (and I have the original air cleaner). As I said, car has patina you cannot recreate... its never been painted or customized (has few areas that had/have lacquer check you might notice have a slightly brighter white, the old man had taken spay paint to touch up and prevent rust).
Rides like you're on a cloud and goes on down the road with ease. They don't come around like this often, its a driver and with a couple little things I wouldn't be afraid to drive it cross country.
Seen a lot of cars and they are hard to come by in this shape... like a blast from back to the future, the ultimate Jelopi mobile that capturesthe 50's like nothing else.

If you are looking for an original car that's survived and is in solid 99% rust free condition... look no further. Serious inquiries only please, feel free to ask questions, selling this for a friend.
