This Week’s Klockau Lust Object: Firethorn 1976 Seville

I had too much popcorn this morning (our office has a popcorn machine, and your author takes perhaps unfair advantage of that fact) so I skipped lunch and used the hour break alternating between reading a Jack Reacher novel and skimming the internet.

And lo and behold, I spot this magnificent example of first gen Seville, on offer in Boise, Idaho. Yumpin’ yiminy!

It looked just fantastic in triple Firethorn Red, with the seldom seen Mansion knit cloth interior instead of the far more common Sierra grain leather.

It’s well known I love these, but this one was just so sharp, with the colors, condition and the more subtle ’76 only eggcrate grille.

As the ad related, “1976 Cadillac Seville, very nice, been in the family since 1977.”

“New tires, interior very nice, hood has some paint defects, other than that very clean.”

The $8500 ask seems pretty fair, provided there isn’t too much rust hiding out.

If it wasn’t so far away I’d be tempted to nab it, just to lounge in that fantastic interior once in a while! Hopefully she’ll go to a good home!
