1984 CADILLAC SEVILLE 4.1 V8

These are very rare in Australia as they had to be imported and then converted to RHD. This has quite a good conversion but there are some details that need fixing up. Overall it's a solid car that will need rebuilding mechanically, a big dent fixed, lots of little broken items fixed up, then a repaint.

 

THE GOOD.

It's California delivered and has no rust at all.

RHD conversion has been done well, although there are some minor details that I will change later.

Body on frame construction so built like a truck.

Distinctive body style.

Great interior.

Front wheel drive with north/south V8 and 4 speed auto.

All bumpers, trims, and chrome in good condition.

Pretty much everything works, although it will need a front to back check and service.

Totally complete and original except for RHD conversion.

 

THE BAD.

All the rubber/plastic trim panels have rotted.

Nasty dent on the l/h rear quarter, slightly damaged rear door and boot.

 

THE UGLY.

Transmission cooler in radiator failed filling transmission with water, this may mean a full transmission rebuild.
Luckily all parts are available, but it's a sod of a job!

Radiator is shot.

Possible failed head gasket.

 

 

Damaged taillight

Rear dent

Wire hubcaps

 

 

 

Stereo, Climate Control, Trip Meter

Digital Dash
