Glengemen Posted April 29, 2007 Report Share Posted April 29, 2007 A guy came into the shop that I work at after nailing a curb and bending the subframe and some other various suspention parts. After telling him how much it would be I offered him $500 for it, he took it. So, now I am the owner of a pearl white 1998 Deville with only 94k on it. Now I just need to take a trip to the JY and find the nessesary parts. I keep hearing about how this car is suposed to be fast (Northstar) so I cant wait to try it out. Car is at the shop still so no pics yet. If for some odd reason anyone has a grille laying around let me know as that is the only body damage. Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted April 29, 2007 Report Share Posted April 29, 2007 You know when the Blues Bros. sang 'She Caught The Katy', I always thought they meant it was slang for Cadillac. Quote Link to comment
Icehouse Posted April 29, 2007 Report Share Posted April 29, 2007 It must have good power if some dude smashed it into a curb. Nice score Quote Link to comment
Glengemen Posted April 29, 2007 Author Report Share Posted April 29, 2007 Going to the JY today to get the subframe and whatever else catches my eye. I hope I find something good for my truck, even though I wont have time to install it. Even though I wont get any sympathy from most of you, it is hot to be going to the JY today, but it's not getting any cooler as summer gets here:D Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted April 29, 2007 Report Share Posted April 29, 2007 He's alleged to have said that. Anyway, I like to think he did. The phrase was used in the movie 48 Hours by Nick Nolte Quote Link to comment
Redd Posted April 30, 2007 Report Share Posted April 30, 2007 haha thats almost how my buddy got his caddy.... guy came in to his pepboys and it had the stock air ride shocks, needed new tires, cat. conveter, and a few other things... Offered him 500 bucks and the guy took it.. Quote Link to comment
Glengemen Posted May 1, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 1, 2007 I am glad that this one only has the leveling system on it instead of full air ride. It would be nice but, it is a 9 year old car, and I think we all know what happens to old bags. I bought more parts for it yesterday: a grille, subframe, and a set of wheels from an 06 DTS. Those stupid things are expensive, $760 for wheels and tires!!! At least they are brand new. Should have it together next week. Quote Link to comment
