#1 of 8 Death, a Caddy, and an Olds... by inazuma May 28, 2008 (12:10 pm)
Yes.... Death.   It recently happened to my father, although because of his health it wasn't too big of a surprise .   My mother still sees him in everything, especially the cars. She tells me she wants to sell them and start a new page in her life. I don't disagree, it's her life, and if she wants a different car she should get one. The problem is, I now need to sell two cars, and I don't have a clue where to start.   She owns a 1975 Cadillac Coupe de Ville and a 1977 Oldsmobile Starfire GT.... (link to pictures below).   Is there even a market for these two?   Album Replies to this message: texases (May 28, 2008 12:29 pm) texases (May 28, 2008 1:07 pm) inazuma (May 28, 2008 1:49 pm) fintail (May 28, 2008 2:00 pm) fezo (Jun 10, 2008 4:32 pm)

Replying to: inazuma (May 28, 2008 12:10 pm) My sympathies for your loss. I expect Shifty to move this over to the 'What is this thing worth' discussion, but, in the mean time, add a little more information on mileage, equipment, and condition (which looks great, if those are recent pictures).

Replying to: inazuma (May 28, 2008 12:10 pm) I took a look at Ebay, and here's what one '75 Cadillac did: 1975 Cadillac   And here's what a '79 Starfire did: 1979 Starfire   Note - these are just examples, and your cars' values will depend on condition, but this can give you a very rough idea. One way to establish a better estimate is to post them on Ebay with a very high reserve, so that you'll see what the Ebay market thinks they're worth.

Replying to: texases (May 28, 2008 1:07 pm) Thank you...   I'll be sure to post like you mentioned on Ebay (I can't beleive I forgot about Ebay ).   PS. Shifty, I'm sorry if this was the wrong forum for the thread!

Replying to: inazuma (May 28, 2008 12:10 pm) Wow, those cars look to be very clean...can't be too many Starfires like that anymore. Replies to this message: fezo (Jun 10, 2008 4:32 pm)

Replying to: fintail (May 28, 2008 2:00 pm) I was looking at your Caddy. Beautiful looking example. Best of luck. Condolences on your dad.
