CUSTOM-BUILT “CAD ATTACK” TO AUCTION AT RM AUCTIONS. The car that you are looking at is called “Cad Attack” – a moniker it adopted from its creator. Built by renowned customizer Greg Westbury for his father, the car is a beautifully customized Cadillac and is set to go under the hammer on November 15 at RM Auctions. Featured twice on the cover of Custom Rodder magazine, Cad Attack is a custom vehicle in the truest sense of the word, as nearly every facet of the automobile has been tailored. The car churns out an impressive 400 hp, with a 454 cubic inch V-8 engine, and features a 700-R4 automatic transmission, modern independent front suspension, coil-spring rear suspension, and four-wheel power disc brakes. Oh and it has a wheelbase (126 inches) thats almost as long as a Maybach 57’s (133.5 inches). Cad Attack leads with a ’79 Seville front clip that has been expertly grafted to the original frame, and it incorporates handcrafted ladder bars, Carrera coil-overs, and a Currie rear end. The vehicle’s remarkable hand-crafted body is highlighted by the Carson-style removable cloth-covered chopped hardtop, a one-piece custom windshield, Mercedes-Benz headlamps, ’91 Cadillac tail lamps, a single blade custom grille, and ’56 Chevy front and rear bumpers with an integrated license tag holder. Inside, grey cloth upholstery has been custom-fitted to the modern bucket seats, door panels, console, and headliner, while the dash and other interior metal components have been smoothed to match the streamlined exterior. This extraordinary creation reflects a labor of love that can only come from the best craftsmen. The car is estimated at US$80,000 - US$100,000 and has no reserve.
