1964 Cadillac DeVille Convertible Additional Info:

Nearly any classic is going to have a substantial cool factor going for it, but it's a select group indeed that, even in top form, would be able to hold a candle to this 1964 Cadillac DeVille Convertible in that department. This outstanding open air cruiser features a smooth running powerplant beneath its hood that's almost certainly been in place from the start and teams with both an exterior and interior still in their factory configuration and looking great. Cadillac's DeVille line received a restyling not long before this '64 rolled out, equipping it with a more tapered front grille and sharply angled front windshield, while keeping its substantial length thoroughly intact, and then some - it measures a full 223 inches from stem to stern. The clean white shade draped over that substantial form gives it such an iconic appearance. The paint is looking nice and fresh, with a consistently smooth texture and wet- looking shine. There's quite an array of brightwork on board here and all of it sits securely in place and is blemish free, as are the front and rear bumpers - if you were to put this lengthy classic in the hands of a detailing pro for a polishing session you'd have yourself a show ready vehicle on your hands at the end of the process. When darkening skies make open-air motoring no longer a possibility, there's a very well-fitted white canvas convertible top standing by under the red tonneau cover in back. <BR. Just beyond those sizable doors is an impressively clean interior - this Caddy has yet to have ventured inside an upholstery shop during its lifetime, which makes its condition all the more rare. The broad, red bench seats in both front and back show some great details, but virtually none of the sun damage or discoloration you'd rightfully expect and they are very nicely padded. The sheer amount of room inside this cabin is really something to behold. You'll still find the generously proportion factory steering wheel perched on its column, and when you peer through it, you'll see a fully functional instrument panel, with an assortment of clear, readable gauges recessed inside. The floor is lined with very clean red carpet and this expansive cabin is kept nice and comfortable by air conditioning that's blowing cold and strong through factory in dash vents. While you may not quite be able to fit a compact car inside the trunk, you wouldn't likely be far off even with that full size spare resting inside. A good level of road-readiness accompanies the visual magic this Caddy offers. There's a 429 cubic inch V8 residing under the hood - likely the original powerplant - and it's in very good form, firing up promptly and pulling with enthusiasm. Sitting in an orderly compartment that could be elevated considerably with just a simple detailing, the engine wears a 4-barrel carb on top and pairs with a 3-speed automatic transmission that's shifting smoothly to make for a reassuringly solid driving experience. An HEI ignition has been added to the mix to maximize spark. This lengthy convertible features coil springs in front and back for a smooth, quiet ride, while power steering makes it easy to maneuver and power brakes bring low-effort stops. A set of 15" ultra sharp spoked factory wheels outfitted with whitewall tires add a great finishing touch to this timeless classic's appearance. During these warmer months, the call of open air motoring grows ever more compelling and you'd be hard pressed to find a more stylish ride to enjoy it in than this 1964 Cadillac DeVille Convertible.
