“A complete and original 1949 Cadillac 331 c.i. V8 and Hydramatic transmission that ran and shifted as it should when removed from the Coupe de Ville. Car was driven on a 100-mile trip the day before the engine and trans were removed from the car.”
Brand:Cadillac Coupe de Ville Warranty:No Manufacturer Part Number:506190650 Country/Region of Manufacture:United States

This is a complete 331 c.i. V8 and hydramatic transmission that I removed from a 1949 Cadillac Coupe de Ville (see the last picture).  I bought the car 8 years ago from a mechanic in Bakersfield, California who had it stored in his shop for many years.  The car had approximately 46,000 miles on the odometer when I bought it and after installing new brakes, flushing the old gas, and tuning the motor, it started easily and ran without issues.  I drove the car frequently and had no problems with starting, over-heating, oil consumption or leaks.  After a year of use I sold it to a neighbor who gave the motor and transmission back to me when he decided to build the car into a street rod using a fuel-injected Chevrolet big block and manual transmission.  The day before we removed the motor and transmission, he drove the car on a 100 mile round trip to attend an out-of-town golf match.  It ran with complete reliability then, and I expect the motor and transmission have many more reliable miles ahead.   Regarding shipping:  The motor is in my friend's automotive shop in Los Angeles, CA., zip 90026. I have no way of shipping or transporting this motor, so the buyer must either pick the motor up at the shop or arrange for shipment.  Good luck bidding.

Wed, 16 Jan 2008

By Ben Oliver First Official Pictures 16 January 2008 04:07 Cadillac showed three major new models at Detroit, and pulled off one of the show’s few surprises by keeping its new CTS Coupe completely secret until it was officially unveiled. It also revealed the 550bhp CTS-V and the Provoq small SUV concept (see separate story). Although branded as a concept, the striking, angular two-door four-seat CTS Coupe will come to Europe in 2010 and will come here because it is based on the CTS saloon platform which will be offered in right-hand drive in the UK and other overseas markets.
