Just the Facts:
Garaged and babied herentire life.
Vintage, 1977 Cadillac Eldorado. Runs great as it did new. Needs new CV joints front end. Minor fixes here and there (antennaand interior passenger vanity light on dash). Front door does not lock. Minor things like that are easily fixed.
Lovely brown biscuit leather matches the interior to a "T".
2nd Owner (bought from respected Denver, CO Cadillac Dealer)
Factory Original everything.
Original Numbers Matching Engine and Transmission! Yes, you heard that right. Nothing was parted-out or swapped with another car. We have a brand new front matching color floor mat that isstill in the GM box. It's yours as well.

New Front floor mat (fresh and still in GM box). Some spare parts ready in a box.
Nice, leather smelling (no rancid mothball, mold or other odors at all). Very exceptional indeed.
Interior is like new (one dime-sizedstain on upper driver's leather seat).
Hood opens and closes as it should. Trunk is a power lock and that works well too. Trunk floor needs a new dark graycarpet cover to beautify that area. No tool box is included.

I am a formerAntique Collector and Private Car Collectorin Lakewood, Colorado.I am the 2nd owner of this car who bought it locally from a well respected Cadillac dealer.
Drive Quality?
Starts easily (has a choke). Engine runs smooth. Corners as she should. Floats down the highway like a boat.New shocks 5+ years ago.
EverWrecked or Salvaged? No, she was neverwrecked.This is a hidden gem in the Cadillac world. Best value & quality to be found on eBay. Great slightly used condition. Low miles (under 50k), this car has livedin a climate controlledgarage her entire life. She rides like she should. Rises to the standard of"a classic collector's dream machine". Original interior throughout. Newer rear stereo speakers on rear window dash. Rich brown exterior paint. InteriorCarmel taffy brownleather seats (front & rear seats match). Everything matches, ie. dash, door panels, beautiful perforated headliner, door handles, seats, brushed cigarette doorcontainers,carpet rich hardware fixtures, carpet mats (new unused front carpet mat is included). Valued in the ball-park of $7,500+. Yours for $5,000. And the only thing missing? A foreverhome...
Dents or any Paint Peeling?
Exterior body contains a few minor dings, imperfections, slight scratches, some tiny dents. Exteriordriver's door has peelingpaintpeeling (only on the driver's door). I recommend repainting the door to match, not a problem.Tinyding on front of hood by Eldorado badge, and on the roof. Rear bumperhas gray rubber sub-bumpers thatI would replace. Side-top vinyl chrome trim is weeping in minor places. Interior dash light switch needs to bereplaced. Power Antenna shouldbe replaced too. Remember, finding new, OEM parts to fix-up your Eldorado are fairly easy tocome by. Order partsfrom several good Cadillac aftermarketparts suppliers out there. So don't worry, trim parts for this car are not a problem to find.
Known Mechanical Defects?
CV joints need replacing. AC isn't currently working, but that is an easy fix. New spare tire and new front floor mat (in the GM box) is included. Engine: 426 cubic inch V-8. Runs strong, smooth and can be driven home across the country. Unleaded fuel. For the serious Cadillac collector. Outstanding Features: Interior Features by Fleetwood: Power Drivers & Passenger seats Power Drivers & Passenger seats Power Door Locks Tilt Steering Column CB Radio with AM/FM Stereo Adjustable Steering Wheel Power Antenna Climate Control Analog Clock Cruise Control Inside Hood Release Leather Upholstery Colorado Emissions Compliant throughout. All Interior/Exterior badging is original throughout. We replaced the antenna with a "close-second". This electric antenna does not have the plug for the CB Radio, thus the CB does not turn on. Change that antenna, and the CB will work again. CB's are fun, and were the rave in the middle to late 1970's. Many of these Caddy's came with Cassette players, but this was special orderedwith a CB (citizens band radio) for the "breaker-breaker one nine" crowd; a rare combination (sign of the times).
Exterior Features: Automatic Transmission Front Wheel Drive Power Mirrors Power Trunk Lid with Temp Gauge Trip Odometer Chrome Bumpers New rear Speakers. Twilight Sentinel Headlights Safety Inspected Power Brakes Power Steering Delayed Windshield Wipers.
Tires: still have some good cruising life in them. I would replace all 4 for good measure. The full-size spare isbrand new and in the trunk!
