1974 Cadillac Coupe de Ville--Orange--Vernon, NY

[John_S_in_Penna]

Here's something a little different, for those who

like conversation pieces at shows and with friends.

Not mine, it's a 1974 Cadillac with orange paint and

an orange plaid interior.  The asking price isn't too far

out of line at $15,500.  Here are some details from

the Hemmings website:

"1974 Cadillac Coupe Deville showing 50,893 miles.  I've owned this beautiful Coupe Deville for nine years (where did the time go?), during which I added about a thousand miles to the ticker.  I fell in love with this Cadillac because of the gorgeous paint and the outrageous upholstery combination.  I runs and drives excellent and has never given me a moment's grief.  I'm in a 'thinning the herd' phase -- most of you guys know how painful it can be -- so I'm making some tough calls and putting some of my babies out here for sale.  If you have more detailed questions, feel free to give me a call.  (Three hundred fifteen) 271.7828.

Price: $15,500 Negotiable."

I like the color!  I had a 1977 Nova Rally in that color.

Exterior's looking good.

Seller's asking top dollar, but no interior/engine shots?

This orange Coupe de Ville is unusual, but I think

it's good looking, if a bit bold.

 

There was the same model for sale a year ago with

the colors reversed:  White with an orange top.

I didn't think that was nearly as attractive:

The seller of the orange Cadillac has added 

more pictures.  Here are two, showing the orange

plaid interior and the common deterioration of the

wood grain in the steering wheel:
