Just picked up a new 84 Deville De'elegance. Blue on blue with the soft cloth seats. The outside looks good as does the inside. It has 142K with a bad tranny and a motor that wont idle down. I only had it running for 10 minutes but the temp light came on. I looked under the hood and saw some melted wiring and some small mods but it all looks intacked.



Completely stock interior looks to have survived very well with the only defect being the locks not working.

Then comes the bad parts. The rust on the drivers floor board, its the only part of the floor board with rust

There is a rust hole in this fender thats hard to see. You can see the tire, just not in the pic.

Never did a floor pan though, are they a pain to deal with? I havent had it on the lift yet but the rest of the frame looks good. The plan would be to switch over the complete drivetrain from the 90 to this 84, everything except the interior mods, I like the interior as is. I would need to put some gauges somewhere though, any ideas?

Just tried to send a PM to you, but I am not able to do, because my message box was full. I emptied it and now it says, that your box is full. :D
Whatever, I wanted to ask, if you would sell the trunk-Fleetwood underline and if you have some "HT4100 DFI" badges of your car? I suppose, you won't put them on again :D;)
Maybe we could get in contact via email or whatever?
Good luck with your project.

Tried to PM you but you have exceeded your space. So I copied, pasted it here...
Hey there,
Caddy is looking good. Here are pics of the fillers that I had on the 90-92 header when it was on my 80 coupe with the 80s fenders.



I had a friend cut a section out and then grafted them back together. I had to notch a little bit. They looked fine once on car..it overlapped a bit on the sides. Here's the only pictures that I can find.


Let me know if you're still interested and on the 80-84 coupe rockers too. I still got those as well.
