"""One major driver for Cadillac's success was the brand's gold-plated image. Carefully cultivated through the years, Cadillac was positioned as the ""ultimate"" in American cars. Luxury buyers knew exactly what they were getting with a Cadillac, as did the ""onlookers"" who those buyers were seeking to impress. Styling continuity between generations was assured-always fresh, always flashy, always unmistakably Cadillac."" -curbsideclassic.com
This two owner 1969 Cadillac DeVille Convertible is featured in the original paint code (28) Persian Blue with black ostrich grain leather interior and a black vinyl top. Power for this Cadillac is provided by a powerful 472 cubic inch V8 motor factory rated at 375 horsepower mated to a Turbo-Hydramatic 3-speed automatic transmission.
The maintenance on this Cadillac has been well documented including the rebuild of the 472 cubic inch motor approximately 16,000 miles ago when the odometer was showing 85,077 miles.
The Persian Blue paint shows well with a driver's quality re-paint performed approximately a year ago over a solid body. The underside of the car has recently been descaled, maintained, and undercoated to prevent any further corrosion.
Upon driving the car, you will find the renowned Cadillac ride, which is smooth and full of comfort features, for example leather seating, tilt and telescoping steering wheel, power windows and a power convertible top.
The interior shows well throughout, there is some cracking and wear in the front seat leather upholstery which would be expected of a 56-year-old original interior. The heating system is functional, but the blower motor appears weak. Again, nothing that would hinder the experience of driving such a legendary machine.
