Big Sale Has Started - UPDATED 07-31-25 (01 Apr 2025)
As some of you know my dad passed away 2 months ago today, on May 31, 2025. I posted it in the Members Only section when it happened. Thanks to all of you who have offered kind words on the forum, with phone calls, and visits in person during this time.
The Big Sale is on but not like originally planned, it is a by appointment type of thing now. I don't have the manpower, or the desire to do a big event like originally planned, I just need to sell a lot of parts that are taking up too much space here. I have been told and believe we are overloaded with Wheel Horse parts like no one has ever seen. Peeps have already been coming in from different parts of the country and buying a lot of stuff due to seeing the sale page, and seeing we are the only Wheel Horse only business in the USA that does things on the scale we do. The sale will continue for awhile until I free up some more space but you may not want to wait too long as things are being sold every day and there are limits to how many of certain parts will be sold.
As it says on the page it is still under construction and the page isn't finished yet. I've had a ton of calls for parts and the Big Sale Page may help answer some questions about what is here before peeps call. I hope that page is also clear that we DO NOT SHIP anything... This is a by appointment type of thing now. Be sure to call before you come to make sure the day isn't already full with peeps scheduled to come in, and make sure what you want is still available.
What's everybody doing?

The original rear panel was looking rough, like headlights do after time so I found a panel on ebay off of a newer one that was painted. The 3rd brake light was out like most all of them are, the rear panels get to leaking and the neon transformer doesn't like it. The new light is 800.00 from Cadillac and 330.00 aftermarket so I came up with a $5 fix, it got all taken apart (that was fun), an LED strip put in it then sealed back up. I painted the rear panel to match the car last Sat then put it all back together Monday along with LED's in every light fixture. It's looking really good now.
The next step is finishing up the new radio and NAV system today I hope, this is a very complicated job the way it's being done, I'll put up some pics later.

Yup I live in the projects too.

The CTS play time is over for now and going to try to get back to cleaning and organizing tomorrow.
I haven't done anything like this since the old car audio days over 25 years ago... I wanted to keep the information center that does so much so after some measurements the original radio was all cut up, CD changer and cassette removed, circuit boards cut and moved up, the front face cut out, and the new radio put inside the old radio casing. It is all tapped into the original Bose system, all the functions like the steering wheel controls still work, and it shut off in 10 mins or when you open the door just like the original. Now it has the NAV, phone, backup camera, DVD, CD, USB, SD Card, and other Aux inputs to boot. It's quite a job but it came out good and works and sounds a lot better than the original.

The movie watching is to keep the other people in the car quiet so you can concentrate on driving lol.
GT will prob know, I think he got the last one in the Escalade a long time ago.
