This car belongs to my good friend and neighbor of 26 years, P. Moss (the owner of Frankie"s Tiki Room and the Double Down Saloon in Las Vegas). I am familiar with the car and its driving characteristics, as I am the one seen driving it in the second photo above, when the car was featured in the Las Vegas Helldorado Days Parade. This Cadillac was purchased by Moss in 2004, who has since driven it a total of around 10k miles. Between 2004-2008, Moss drove it about 5,000 miles, then in 2008 he had Danny Koker (of Count"s Kustoms) repaint the car its original white, as well as install a new top over the original frame, The fabric and window is in basically new condition, and the power top works as it should. Since 2008, Moss has added just 5000 more miles. The car has been garaged the entire time he has owned it, and he has a clean Nevada title in his name. Power comes from the original 390ci V8 mated to a 4-speed automatic transmission (with an optional 3-speed selection for "hilly drives"). Recent maintenance includes a new brake master cylinder and fresh brake pads. The 5-digit odometer works, reading just under 84k miles. All four power windows are working properly, as do all lights, including the driver-facing turn signal pods on the front fenders. The power steering is light and pleasant, and the car starts, stops, turns, and runs as it should. The red leather interior is unrestored. As you can see from the photos, the leather is showing wear, with a split forming on the passenger side front seat bottom. Other notables include include a small (2-3") crack on the passenger corner of the dash, a paint chip where the trunk meets the fender, a small area of threadbare carpet on the driver"s door panel, slight bubbling along the driver-side rocker panel, a misaligned fuel filler door, and minor surface rust at the door sill seams. Currently inoperable are the clock and the radio. The air conditioning system is intact, but isn"t blowing cold air; the compressor does not have a v-belt. There is a very small leak from the transmission (a drop now and then), which Moss"s mechanic said is not worth chasing any further at this stage. Overall, this is a gorgeous, well running Cadillac that can be driven and enjoyed as-is, with the few things needing attention not interfering with your enjoyment. Moss says he would drive this car anywhere, but that is up to you! Please see my feedback profile as a seller. I have bought and sold many special-interest cars on with tremendous success and a 100% positive feedback. Please ask any and all questions before bidding. I do not reveal my (very fair) reserves and I do not tolerate auction interference. Please bid seriously and with confidence!
