Happy belated scott!!

Trav, how did u fry it? in a pan, with some EVOO?

i found a caddy! going to take a look at it tonight.

tmrepp

...don't forget the eggs, steak, onions and home fries.

Checked one wire with it off for pos and negative before i snipped the cigarette lighter end off, and didn't realize positive would show ground apparently. Which i didn't know is possible. Oh well, my fault either way. On the way to radio shack to see if they have a transistor.

Pictures of said Caddy. Let me know what yall think:

why not pick up a used CTS? rwd sounds like fun.

Big_Jim

iTrader: (3)

i like the cts, but its small. its the modern catera. too small for me.

YourNameHere

what about the DTS? i just like the styling of the newer cars so much more.

i LOVE the dts. its what i ultimately want to get. I wanted a 97-99 deville concours, but they're impossible to find with a sunroof. The concours was the 97-99 deville with the center console and floor shifter. DTS came with the center console and floor shifter, DHS didnt offer that.

god ive done too much reading on caddys.

well if thats what you want then save longer. dont buy something you dont REALLY want. in the end you dont be happy.

No bones on the inverter. It's in the trash now.

i have wanted a cadillac for as long as i can remember. i really like the one im looking at, have some great ideas for it. lol.

the dts will be the "look, im more responsible, and can have fun" lol.

check out harbor freight if you need a new inverter, they're usually cheap.

xDevious

Big_Jim

iTrader: (3)

nope, its got the 4.9 in it. the only caddy to have the N* that year was the concours.

gas mileage, better than the battle tank.

YourNameHere

hmm well that also pits into a Pontaic Fiero so if god forbid you get rear-end let me know cause i alreadu have a the ferio donor car

TorchedPerfection86

any caddy without the northstar v8 = crap

that is the only engine that i would trust in a caddy...it is built very well

YourNameHere

the 4.9l has been built since dirt was young.

i'd rather have the 4.9 than the N* ive read a lot of problems about it. At least the 4.9 is user servicable, and you dont have to drop out the engine cradle to change the alternator lol.
