The 1966 DeVille was a large luxurious Cadillac with no primary competition that could easily carry six people and featured a large 429/ 340HP V8 engine. These were the final years of the rear wheel drive Cadillac and amongst the best of the breed. The 1965 redesign brought handsome new curved sided styling amd a stronger new full perimeter frame replacing the old X-member affair, with better engine mounts, a new four link rear suspension and the improved Turbo Hydramatic drive transmission with the result being two of Cadillac's best sales years ever! With these rare mid-sixties models becoming increasingly thinned out now, these particular 1965-66 year models are now being appreciated by Cadillac enthusiasts more than ever before as an increasingly desirable and collectible and very rare Cadillac from two of its best years ever!

The floor boards, trunk and all the typical rust-prone areas are completely solid and rust-free and the car has had no signs of any accidents - obviously an always garaged and cherished car since new!
The car has it's original matching # 429/ 340HP V8 engine with only 62K undocumented but reportedly and believed to be original miles, the engine is extremely strong and powerful and sounds absolutely magnificent and the transmission shifts smoothly through the gears.
This particular car drives absolutely magnificently - it must really be seen and driven to be fully appreciated - does not miss a beat and purrs like a kitten - drives straight as an arrow with no strange road wobbles, shakes or rattles - a truly remarkable daily driver that will give any modern day car a run for it's money!
