That '70 Cadillac isn't a Coupe DeVille... It's a DeVille... They called the convertibles "DeVille". I'm thinking it was originally gold... Or maybe blue, considering the Gas Station Attendent Blue paint on the rear quarter underneath the black. The rough running is probably from an out of shape Quadrajet... But those can actually be built to run like Swiss Watches... No lag or anything. The engine is a 472. That particular car looks like it's got everything that was available in 1970, except for the 60/40 split front seat... Not many people bought that option, for some reason. It DOES have the passenger side rearview mirror. It's a nice one... That Cadillac 472 is a super reliable engine. The transmission, running gear and suspension are all heavy duty stuff, too... Not much to go wrong with them. I hope you got that car, and for a good price. You'll probably like it so much, you'll keep it. I wish I never sold my Lavender '69 ragtop... But that was back in the 1980s. The 69-70 convertibles are getting scarce.
Hey Randy, that Kia Koup probably had an aftermarket air intake installed. The previous owner probably took it off and threw the stock parts back loosely before it was repossessed.
@@generationscomputersystems exactly, and no saying where the intake box and other assembly parts actually were, it being at an auction and all they could have been moved.
We had a brand new 2000 KIa Sephia and had it for 12 years. No problems at all and mint condition till a deer with no insurance ran out in front of the car, and when we took the car to Florida in 2000, so many people were looking at the car because they never had seen one.
I want the Cadillac! My first car was a 70 Coupe DeVille, and my nickname became "The Caddy Kid." Mine was not a convertible, but I always wanted it to be. I have other higher performance dream cars, but I'd love to spend time with this beauty.
I had a 69 Sedan Deville. Bought her in 77 from the original owner. Those 472 engines were strong, the 69 was rated at 375 horses, and they were mated to a turbo 400 transmission. My friends in high school made fun of me as I liked the big luxury liners over the camaros, Chevelles, etc. I would drag race them, and I won more races than I lost. One of my friends inherited his mothers 72 Cadillac a few years ago, after sitting for a while he pulled the engine and transmission, rebuilt both and put that power plant and transmission in a C- 10 short bed pickup. It'll get up and go, or if you prefer, you can roast the tires off it. Long live the old Cadillacs.
" i didnt do it " bart simpson lol ... really liking the new copart format with live bidding makes it exciting !! it would be cool to see you buy one and bring it home the same day at some point . congrats on the house man ..
Porsche Cayenne, over here in the UK, the battery is under the passenger seat, as for the air suspension, there could be a very easy fix, take a look at Wheeler Dealers, on Discovery, they had the same issue on the same model. Rare car, I don’t think we got that model here great post👍
Whoa, that's a Turbo, way more car than the Cayenne S! Those things are ridiculously awesome. But fixing mechanical damage on a Porsche, especially a Turbo, could be scary. But what an awesome find, sounds great! Could be great content for "why the first-generation Cayenne is awesome, and what you're getting into when buying one."
With the Honda Element, I had that same sound with my wife’s element. It turned out to be the starter, makes a god awful noises when you crank like something is severely damaged. I’d likely bid depending on the price
Flood damage is a big problem in certain areas here in Oklahoma. I believe it was a year or so ago that Ponca city near me got a record breaking flood. Even the big monster trucks couldn’t get threw. People started using boats to rescue neighbors.
1970 cadillac deville convertable, yes i have one, mine has had the 472 removed and a later model 425 put in it, runs great on the new fuels tho. mine is also black with a white top, was gold originally tho.
1970 CDV is probably running a 472. Best thing about it is that its high compression model. This also means you gotta remember that fuel then and now was a lot different. I'd put non-ethanol in it and some lead additive.
One thing I will love to see is dodge Chrysler cars on your channel like Dodge Charger or Chrysler 300 really muscle cars tht will be good even if you don’t buy them I remember them day even crown Vic’s I would love to see more of them
Wonder if the porsche battery was bad or missing and drained your booster and that bad starter pulled a large amp draw turning it over. Let us know if you win that one.
Hey Randy. I've not owned that model Honda, but I have owned a car that blew a head gasket in a very weird way. When you parked the car, the cylinders would fill up with coolant and you'd turn the key and hear the starter engage and try to turn it over, but get nowhere - in fact, it cranked like the battery was flat - just like that Honda did. A few tries on the key (like you did to the Honda) and it would eventually roll over and fire. My guess is that it was pushing all the coolant out the exhaust valves when I was repeatedly hitting the key and then once that piston got to the top, the next one would do the same until it was all gone and she could turn. No water showing in the oil at all and no oil in the coolant either. I just thought the car was being cantankerous until one day after getting it to start, I drove down the road and there was a huge plume of steam so big, I could not see behind me on my side of the road for a couple of hundred metres. It looked like the engine had disintegrated and she was blowing smoke; the steam was that thick! Good call not to bid on it, mate. The Kia - lovely little cars. Good for about 250-300k miles before they give you problems as long as they are well maintained. An absolutely lovely colour too, that one and I believe it would resell quite quick as a result. The wear on the upholstery is typical and as a warning, you'll need to check whether there is an air bag in that side bolster of the driver's seat. If there is, you don't want to drive it until the bolster is reupholstered in case the air bag goes off, as it will take the path of least resistance and not necessarily deploy in the way the manufacturer intended. The Holden Monaro / Pontiac GTO is famous for wearing the driver's seat outer bolster and people have been severely injured by the airbag that deploys right at kidney height. Trust me on this....it's not pretty. The Cayenne - as well as the issues with the air suspension, they are well known for engine electrical issues - especially if a little water has got in somewhere. My immediate thought was the alternator has a fault because a) it obviously did not charge and b) I have seen where alternators can drain / kill batteries because something (I forget what it is called) inside it lets go and draws power instead of producing it. Also, the plethora of warning lights on the dash would have put me off if the air suspension hadn't already. There's easy $6-9k if you broke it up for the salvage market anyway, so worst case scenario if you won it........ That old Caddy - man! I'd give my eye teeth for something like that to cruise in. The quarter panel doesn't look too bad at all and most of it could be massaged out. My only concern would be keeping that top fin straight and that trunk gutter / gap being right. The bumper and left rear tail light surround / housing would be a pretty penny though, I bet. The 300C and Town Car are dead, sadly. The Vette - what's the cost of a good second hand LS3 engine over there? If replacing the starter just showed that the engine itself was toast, is there enough money left in the resale value for a transplant? She was a seriously nice car with a good retail value.....I'd be tempted, mate. I really would...... Anyway - that's my 10c worth All the best!
I have a honda CR-V that has that same K24 motor and when my starter went bad it sounded just like that...and you have to remove the intake manifold to replace the starter and it's not cheap.
Them Repos usually are from a tote the note & when the blow-up they quit paying in my experience anyway. Yup Randy be on the lookout for them storm surge hurricane 🌀 cars 🚗 😳 lol .Salute big dawg 👍😎
I read the comments on some 2016-18 Forte's from the car sites like Edmunds and the reliability reported from the owners was very high. I was surprised, they seem to be one of the better made Kia's.
Take a SOS pad to the Cadillac whitewalls and they will clean up nice. I don't think it sat outside, but the tires might be old. Can't believe it was totalled for that dent. There probably wasn't an agreed value policy on it.
i always loved the way the hyundai and kia 2.0 sounds i have a 2014 kia soul plus with the 2.0 they are good engines when u have to pass people kia and hyundai makes damn good engines btw love the videos randy keep up the good work

The 69-70 convertibles are getting scarce.
I like it how from the 80s to the 2000s Lincoln kept the same dash beeper tones. Thats respect to tradition that I like.
My favorite Honda, great car for the adventurer. From all the stickers it looks like that’s exactly what they used it for
I had a '71 Fleetwood, a 72 Coup d'ville, a 71 Calais, and a 73 Fleetwood. Loved 'em.
Man that Cadillac is a dream!!
An hour of copart on my day off? Sign me up!
that Cadillac just looks comfortable. I'd love that car.
Hey Randy, that Kia Koup probably had an aftermarket air intake installed. The previous owner probably took it off and threw the stock parts back loosely before it was repossessed.
Why would owner bother putting the stock parts back on?? Why would he (she) care?
@@z33317 Thats why I assume Jeff Tan said "loosely" they might not have cared and just put it in the way it was
@@Alborn30 Thanks for pointing out z33317's remark. To add, the air filter and intake box looks too clean for a car that has that many miles.
@@generationscomputersystems exactly, and no saying where the intake box and other assembly parts actually were, it being at an auction and all they could have been moved.
Alternator in Porche is gone, sucked all your booster pack dry... that's all, don't be afraid of it
Randy: I am not a Cadillac man, but that car is nice. Boss man.
I've seen fire and I've seen rain... in the first two cars you looked at
Love the Lincoln, the paint is beautiful 😍
Buy the Cadillac!! I’d like see it on the channel.
We had a brand new 2000 KIa Sephia and had it for 12 years. No problems at all and mint condition till a deer with no insurance ran out in front of the car, and when we took the car to Florida in 2000, so many people were looking at the car because they never had seen one.
My son's first "new to him" car was a 2012 blue kia koup. He loved it. Had it for 3 years.
That Cadillac was actually really nice.
The Cayenne turbo would be interesting to find out the mystery battery issues!
Randy, pick up the C6, with the Vette market being crazy, can't lose on that one!
In total agreement with that buddy , vettes are ridiculous right now
Best hour I'll spend all day. Thank you, Randy
Marvel mystery oil for the Lincoln town car! Always frees up engines!
You bid on it because you got a feeling on it. I like that.

On the vette the Bendix sounds sezed up to where it's not getting to the flywheel needs a new starter
I owned a 79 Coupe de Ville and a 78 Eldorado. Loved both of them
" i didnt do it " bart simpson lol ... really liking the new copart format with live bidding makes it exciting !! it would be cool to see you buy one and bring it home the same day at some point . congrats on the house man ..
just bought something from an auction myself.
Then Randy released a new video.
What a coincidence😂
Kadu nopirki?
Vice grip garage would absolutely love that cadillac. Hes already got 2 sedans
I enjoy the live bidding. It might be interesting watching you bid on PC when the auctions are ending
I love fender skirts. Such a nice car.
I've always liked the Kia Forte Koups. My 16 Soulful pkg. Has 105k on it and have only changed the Oil and air filters and thats it.
Randy from @auto action rebuild love the new logo
Starter Solenoid is your problem on the C8.
Randy thanks for another good & entertaining Walk Around Years ago My cousin had a black Cadillac DeVille
You know it’s bad when your taking to the tv saying…about the Cadillac.. Randy little further up little further up! Lol
1 hour after a week with nothing 💆♂️ refreshing
Good morning Randy. Those 2 Lincoln are good. The rest of the cars are awesome.
Throw a bid on the Caddy. Talk about a sweet cruiser!
Absolutely love the koup. I have a black one and love it.

Very Nice Randy some cool Cars there hope you win at least One
With the Honda Element, I had that same sound with my wife’s element. It turned out to be the starter, makes a god awful noises when you crank like something is severely damaged. I’d likely bid depending on the price
Yep, agreed. I have had a Honda and the starter sounded the same, wasn't locked up, just the starter.
mine never had one issue like that bc a spark plug this one looks to be flooded
It’s gonna run I can feel it
Flood damage is a big problem in certain areas here in Oklahoma. I believe it was a year or so ago that Ponca city near me got a record breaking flood. Even the big monster trucks couldn’t get threw. People started using boats to rescue neighbors.
The Honda Element is great. Those K24 motors run forever. I had one with 465k that still ran excellent.
I think this corvette has door cable release in the trunk. The trunk opens if you have the emergency key , there is lock above the license plate
If the burn car still has a good motor, buy them both and swap it into the Town Car.
I've owned two kia koups both 2010s sx manual cars.. i absolutely loved em!
Keep the long videos coming!! I watch every minute.
That 07 Lincoln would be a perfect interior donor for a CVPI!
That red corvette is 🔥❤️
Love the 1970 Caddy!!!!!!
That Cadillac will make you look like a Texan millionaire; well deserved status.
Love that 70 Cadillac
1970 cadillac deville convertable, yes i have one, mine has had the 472 removed and a later model 425 put in it, runs great on the new fuels tho. mine is also black with a white top, was gold originally tho.
Love that caddy good luck buddy take care see you soon
Get that Cadillac! That would be fun to see you try to fix it!
1970 CDV is probably running a 472. Best thing about it is that its high compression model. This also means you gotta remember that fuel then and now was a lot different. I'd put non-ethanol in it and some lead additive.
Enjoyed the walk around
That cayenne is the turbo, not the S. Those are getting rarer. Prices went up quite a lot the last year.
Cadillac is nicest one in your video!
The 1970 Cadillac Eldorado came with a 500, the 472 engine was in the Deville & Fleetwood models.
love that old caddy, love it.
That Cadi is beautiful
Wonder if that Porsche Cheyenne just needs a new alternator, if so might be a good purchase for that amount.
A Cheyenne is a Chevrolet.
A 2 door Caddy ! Awesome !
here is an amazing brilliant idea. how about get the lincoln and put a new motor in it, wow , who would have thought
There's more than 4gs worth of parts...win win 🏆
It's a 472 single 4 bbl. My folks had on with the dual 4 472 dual exhaust. you would love the hydraulic top.
The Caddy should have DeVille script on the rear fenders near the side marker lights.
Hey Randy what's up! On that cadi it's a 472 c I only the Eldorado's had the 500ci.
Yeah 472 for that year. The DeVille didn’t get the 500 till 1973.
@@sirdavester I had a '74 with a 472. My friend had a Fleetwood with a 500.
One thing I will love to see is dodge Chrysler cars on your channel like Dodge Charger or Chrysler 300 really muscle cars tht will be good even if you don’t buy them I remember them day even crown Vic’s I would love to see more of them
Randy, when people don't pay their car payments, they typically don't change the oil or maintain it. I steer clear of repo cars.
Honda Element rides like a dream, great cars! Little boxy, can get over that for the right price for sure! It's a HONDA!!!
Elements run forever
Like that little Kia and the Caddy is definitely a repaint. It's nice tho
Was bouta go to sleep but i cant pass a 50min episode :)
Keep em coming
