1968 Cadillac Fleetwood Eldorado 2 Dr Coupe FWD 68 Caddy Hardtop No Reserve NR
1968 Cadillac Eldorado
1968 Cadillac Fleetwood Eldoradooffered at no reserve.
These early Eldorado’s were designed with very unique styling! I believe Eldorados have the longest hood every put on a car. Eldorado’s power train in 1968 were front wheel drive which also makes this classic car unique. The 5 digit odometer shows 10632. I believe it has rolled over once and has 110632 original miles. This Eldorado has been in the family since 2000.
It has a 472 cid engine. It has a dual exhaust. I have taken this car on several trips over the years and it has served me well. Speedometer works periodically. The motor has a noisy lifter but starts up well. No major leaks but don’t be surprised if it drips here and there like any car this age.
The paint is in fair condition, looks like a single stage paint job. I have not addressed the paint since I’ve owned the car. The paint has normal nicks and dings, small dent on the left rear quarter panel. There is rust bubbling on the front left A pillar (see pics) Also there is rust around the stainless trim on both rear wheels. (see pics) No rust holes that are visible but it does have some rust. I have always wanted to have the car painted black, it would look so good a deep black.
The interior is in great shape for its age. The front seat panels have been replaced with vinyl that match the original leather back seat. The dash and door panels are the original and not cracked. Headliner is original with no tears or rips. The carpet is nice as well.
The auto climate control does not work. The temperature sensors were notorious for not working. I have installed a bypass with a separate fan switch (under the dash) and a heater core bypass valve. The heater controls move the damper between defrost, floor and dash vents. Heater blows hot in the winter and the ac is cold in the summer however there is a slow Freon leak in the air conditioning system. Power windows work but the side rear vent windows do not work. The head lights and tail lights work. The headlight doors operate as they should.
Car has mag polished aluminum wheels from a seventies Eldorado. I do not have the mag wheel center caps but I’m sure they could be found online.
Front bumper and stainless trim is in good shape, having never been re-chromed. Rear bumper is pitted but not rusted. Tires are okay but show some age/weather cracking. It has the original stereo in the dash but does not work. An aftermarket stereo and CD player has been installed in the glove box.
This Cadillac is being offered at no reserve.To make it fair for all interestedit will sell to the highest bidder. Please don't ask if I will end the auction early to sell car at a buy it now price.
While this Eldorado is not a show car, the weakest part of this car is the body. Not extremely bad but does have some issue. Interior is very nice and the drive train is strong like an ox. I wouldn’t hesitate to drive it anywhere. It is a great driving car. If you have any questions please call801-910-7118or email questions toBob.York@maverik.com
