  • FS: 1975 Caddy Miller Meteor

    My previous attempt to sell this car fell through as did the project I was selling it for. I'm still interested in finding something older, but I think I am going to try to sell this first. So I have updated this add a little bit.

    The car was bought from Fresno California in 2004 and driven back here to Seattle Washington. Papers show it was responsible for 4281 rides during it's service. All the glass is perfect and uncracked including the cab sliders. The back has all casket rollers and flip tops in decent condition. The car is a combo so it has pop-up seats for EMT's in the back. The car's interior overall is in really good condition. The coach builder plaque says that this car originally came as Sable Black. And the semi-official story is that this particular car was painted white by the Miller Meteor and then taken on the trade show circuit for three years. I have some evidence from MM, but that's about all. The Caddy 500 engine is in tip top condition and has had a very recent rebuild and runs great. It has new batteries, a completely rebuilt carb, and other new and updated parts. The front and rear brakes are new.

    The car isn't perfect though. It has two dents in the body that are pretty gentle. Could be removed with some time and energy. There is spotty rust thanks to Washington weather and sadly the rocker panels under both front doors now have some cancer that has gone all the way through, and the AC/heater currently doesn't work. The GM programmer went out and I scoured for a long time to find a new one, which I did, but now the project is putting it all back together.

    Asking $2500. I'm interested in old motorcycles, so specifically if you have an older brit or euro bike (big + for BMW's) I would be willing to talk trade.

    There are more pictures here

    The pictures below allow you to see the dents. The first picture it is all the way at the end of the fender. The second picture shows the dent in the rear door.

                Is it still for sale? And would you consider a 2000 Ford C.V. ex police car for a trade?

                  Sorry mate, looking for cash. The only trade I'd be interested in is for old running BMW motorcycles. Pre-1970.

                        Mike I emailed you back.

                        I updated this post a little to reflect new front and rear brakes and some additional work that I have had done to try to get the environmental programmer back working.

                        I also updated the gallery with some additional pics so you can see the dents and rust a little better.

                            I'm definitely interested in bike trades, but unfortunately I am looking for very specific things. Namely pre-70 euro bikes especially BMW.

                            Good luck mate.
