A convertible classic Cadillac is always a head turner, regardless of the year of model or era. But if one were to pick some particularly great eras, the late 50s and the early 70s immediately come to mind. The 3rd generation DeVille was built from 1965 to 1970, and even though it was Cadillac’s mid-range model, it was still very much a Cadillac in every sense of the word. The 1970 DeVille falls into the sweet spot in time where cars had the design, features, and comfort of the late 60s/early 70s and power of the “pre-emissions” engines. During its 6-year production, several significant changes were made to the DeVille in terms of mechanics, features, and design. Perhaps the most noticeable of these is the layout of the dual headlamps changing from vertical to horizontal, but there were many not-so-obvious improvements as well, such as the introduction of the Energy-Absorbing steering column and safety wheel as standard equipment from 1967.
Being a gold 70s Cadillac, at first glance, it looks like it could be Tex Dinoco from the Cars franchise, even though the character is actually based on a 1975 model. The white convertible top complements the body color well and matches the white interior. At over 18.5 feet long, the sheer size of the DeVille is especially apparent when the top is down and its opulence and road presence are unmistakable. The white bench seats look incredibly comfortable and resemble a well-stuffed sofa with contrasting black seat belts. The front seats appear to be electrically adjustable as well. Most of the functions, including the radio and climate controls, are on the driver’s section of the dashboard and interestingly, the 3-speed wiper controls are located on the driver’s door rather than on the dashboard.
In addition to hiding the recessed windshield wipers, the studio-apartment-sized hood also covers a whopping 472ci cast iron V8 engine. Fed through a Rochester Quadra-Jet 4-barrel carburetor and driving the rear wheels via a Turbo Hydra-Matic 3-speed automatic transmission to get the big convertible up to speed at an impressive pace. Deceleration is taken care of by front power-assisted disc brakes and rear drum brakes. The most important part of a Cadillac’s performance is the ride, and to deal with that aspect, this car has front independent suspension with coil springs and a rear 4-link coilover suspension system.
We all loved the 101 Dalmatians movie, and one of the most prominent characters in it was the villain, Cruella de Vil. That has nothing to do with this car, but her name sure does remind us of it. Say hello to the 1965 Cadillac Coupe Deville, the luxurious land yacht that won the hearts of the 1960s. This model name was used by Cadillac over eight generations. It was derived from the French de la Ville or de Ville, meaning "of the town". What we have here is a 1965 Cadillac Coupe Deville that belongs to the third generation. It saw a major redesign that sets it apart from its predecessors. With just 80,631 miles on its odometer, this beauty is located in Elgin, South Carolina.
Of The Town. That’s what de Ville means. Cadillac intended this series of full-size luxury cars to literally be the talk of the town, it seems. The de Ville name was seen between 1958 and 2005, and what we have for sale today is a second-generation 1963 Cadillac de Ville 4-Door Sedan. Hailing from Midland, Texas, this 48,761-mile machine comes with a 4-speed Hydra-Matic automatic gearbox and a 390ci V8 under the hood. It’s also got aftermarket wheels for a bit of distinctive style. If you want a car that is greatly representative of American automotive luxury in the Sixties, this is one of the best candidates.
The Cadillac de Ville series is a full-size luxury car from Cadillac, made between 1958 and 2005 across eight generations. The term de Ville means “of the town”, indicating that Cadillac intended the model to become the talk of the town, literally. Offered in sedan, coupe and convertible forms, early generations are renowned for their flamboyant styling. Take this second generation 1963 Cadillac Coupe de Ville as a prime example. With a 390 under the hood and a lovely Nevada Silver paint job, this machine awaits a new owner in Santa Rosa, California. Grab it while you can because cars like this don’t stay on the market for long.
Cadillac may be best known for their massively opulent land yachts that really pushed the boundaries of full-size cars, but did you know that they had smaller options? In fact, they still do. Between 1976 and 2004, their midsize luxury car was the Seville. Named after a Spanish province renowned for art and architecture, today’s 1985 Cadillac Seville comes from the second generation of the nameplate. It’s got only 13,272 miles on its 4.1-liter throttle body injected V8, and features a four-speed automatic transmission. Interestingly, the car is front-wheel drive, as was typical back in the day. If you’d like to acquire this rather interesting piece of Eighties Americana, it’s currently up for grabs in Fountain Inn, South Carolina.
Do you want to be the proud owner of an American grand tourer from the Two Thousands, of which fewer than 15,500 were made? Yes, you can get yourself this 2004 Cadillac XLR from Lemont, Illinois and boast that it’s one of only 3,665 cars made in 2004. Rarer than some supercars, the Cadillac XLR was Caddy’s crack at the luxury grand tourer market. And you know what? It’s one of those cars that was massively underestimated when it was brand-new. Not enough people were brave enough to check it out, which was a mistake, because Cadillac had made something truly great. Now, XLRs are slowly gaining popularity, so you’d better snap up this sub-21,000 mile car before prices start going up – after all, Demand and Supply – that’s basic economics.
For fifty years, Cadillac’s Eldorado marked the flagship offering of this renowned American luxury automaker. The first Eldorado came out in 1952, and those early models were some of the most expensive cars in America at the time. Twelve generations of Eldorado were made, and today, we have a ninth-generation example up for grabs in Port St. Lucie, Florida. This 43,658-mile 1978 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Classic is the very embodiment of the term Land Yacht, after all. It’s large, imposing, and features the ultra-rare factory sunroof option. Don’t miss out on this opportunity to own an American classic.
One of the shortest-lived nameplates in Buick history has got to be the Invicta. In fact, this full-size offering packed in two generations within just five years. The first generation ran for 1959 and 1960, while the second was made from 1961 to 1963. Given the car’s short production run, it’s no surprise that the market isn’t awash with examples. Thankfully, we have this 53,667-mile 1959 Buick Invicta for sale today. With its 401ci V8 and automatic gearbox, this Miami-based classic is the perfect choice for someone seeking an unconventional automobile to cherish, and of course, drive.
This 1974 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe, in all its orange glory, comes from an era of resilience. The C3 or third-gen ‘Vette is the longest-running of them all, with a fourteen-year production run between 1968 and 1982. Cars like this one are historically significant because they weathered the most dreaded time in American auto history; the Malaise Era. Even during those times, the Corvette was still the fastest American car available. Now, you can see why, when you take a closer look at this 24,000-mile machine from Island Lake, Illinois. It’s a survivor, a stunning looker, and above all, never compromised on engines by always having a V8 beneath the hood. So why not buy this beautiful boulevard cruiser and stick it to today’s soulless EVs?
