Can’t make it to the Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale 2025 Auction at WestWorld of Scottsdale in January? We’ve got great news: For the first time ever, there will be a Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale Fall Auction at WestWorld October 10-13 of this year. Expect to see an array of classic and collectible vehicles cross the auction block, including the following two GM vehicles.
1966 Cadillac DeVille Convertible Custom EV
A lot of cars have nicknames. For instance, the Corvette ZR-1 below was dubbed the “King of the Hill.” This customized Cadillac DeVille convertible also has one: dEVille. That’s not a typo. Those two capital letters mean this beautiful cruiser has been turned into an electric vehicle (EV). Legacy EV of Gilbert, Arizona started with a DeVille drop-top and, over the course of more than eight months, turned it into what the company calls an “Electro-Mod” for the 2021 SEMA Show.
Legacy EV had the Caddy refinished in Bright White, installed LED headlights and taillights, added an Air Lift Performance air suspension, and equipped it with a bold set of 20-inch EVOD Industries wheels.
They updated the red interior with a distinctive PearlCraft steering wheel, a digital sound system, and Dakota Digital gauges.
The biggest mod of all was performed under the hood. Legacy EV pulled out the massive 429ci V8 and replaced it with a trio of NetGain HyPer 9 motors fed by a 55.5-kWh NMC (nickel manganese cobalt) battery pack. Output is up considerably from the original engine’s 340 horsepower to 394 horsepower and an astounding 1,000 lb-ft of torque. Expect a cruising range of up to 125 miles – and infinite headroom when you want it.
1995 Corvette ZR-1
The C4 version of the high-performance Corvette ZR-1 model marked a significant moment in the history of “America’s Sports Car.” It was the first time since the early 1970s that Chevy offered a ZR1 and the last time that it would produce a ZR1 until the 2009 model year (the hyphen was dropped for the supercharged C6 model).
Produced from 1990 until 1995, the second incarnation of the ZR-1 provided more power and performance than its ordinary C4 siblings. The LT5 5.7-liter V8 was designed by Lotus and initially produced 375 horsepower, although that figure was later increased to 405 horses (which ended up rivaling the second-series C5 Z06 many years later). A ZF six-speed manual gearbox transferred the engine’s substantial output to the wider rear end.
The Competition Yellow 1995 ZR-1 you see here is special for another reasons: it’s one of six unregistered sequential-model-year C4 Corvette ZR-1s from the David M. Ressler Collection.
Since it hasn’t been registered, it also hasn’t been driven much. If you buy this car, sit on the factory plastic that still covers the Light Beige leather seats, and check the odometer, you’ll see only 73 miles on the odometer.
