1973 Cadillac Eldorado Pace car

Up for sale is this beautiful 1973 caddilac eldorado Convertable Indianapolis 500 pace car edition. Ive heard only around 500 were made and even less around today so it's an extremely select few people who can say they have owned this iconic car Incredible 500cu in v8 engine that runs great! My family has had this car for around 8 years and has been garage kept, this cars previous owner loved and cherished this vehicle, he loved take this car to car shows and it was his baby as it was ours as well. It is white exterior and all red interior, ive been told its the model the shriners use as their parade car This car was vinyl wrapped almost immediately after purchasing it, it was used as a parade car and would be parked in front of the store at special occasions or used to go get ice cream etc. You can remove the vinyl or simply cover the wording with vinyl pieces as the graphics are really fun and draw a lot of attention driving around. Everyone honks and takes pictures and waves as you pass by, you always feel like your in a parade without even being in one. I would estimate we have put less than 250 miles on it each year since purchasing it. With only 112k miles the engine runs strong! The vinyl seats were reupholstered around a year ago and have probably only been sat in a handful of times We paid to have a really nice sound system added to the caddilac and it really makes this car a dream to ride around in and blast music as your driving in the parade or around town! The sound system cost a little over 5k for parts and labor, they used ultra premium speakers such as (6) alpine type r speakers in the cabin. Two in the front in the custom headunit console, 2 in the custom box in the floor middle of the back seat, and 2 near the side panels in the back seat pointing back at the front for a full sound. It also has a custom subwoofer setup with 2 huge high quality JL audio 10in subwoofers for a nice tight and punchy bass that really makes the music shine. Equiped with 2 JL Audio amplifiers, a 6 channel 600w for the front speakers and a 1000w premium JL Audio sub amplifer along with a BOSS 2.0 farad power capacitor. Head unit is a pioneer, with raido tuner, usb connection and AUX connection. My phone no longer has a AUX port so i use a AUX to usb-c cable and it works like a dream. Bluetooth was not an option on this headunit, but a simple $20 bluetooth adapter will make it be bluetooth compatible if that is important to you Has a good bit of the vehicle dealer candy such as: maintanace schedule pamphlet, ECS information card and warenty, owners manual, 1973 salesman's merchandising guide (rare book with dealers fabric and vinyl swatches and all options etc. For the showroom salesmen to refer to) Brand new items have been installed recently including: -New battery less than a month old with easy to use kill switch lever for conserving the battery when not in use or making it harder to hot wire. -vinyl seats reupholstered -new air filter -new coolant reservoir overflow -went around and replaced any light I noticed out with brand new bulbs so all lights should be in good shape Issues to fix stop engine temp light on dash. Light turns on when door is opened even when cold and not running. Temperature on radiator doesn't run hot so it seems like it's a bad temp sensor that normally makes ground when hot, but is probably stuck on ground or that wire is touching some metal and sending a Grounding signal. Doesn't effect anything, only a quality of life fix Ac has never been looked at to see if it will work, doesn't currently seem to do anything when turning the air on. We've always driven it In nice weather only so it hasn't ever been an issue for us. Cracked vinyl on dash, handrests, sun visor, etc. As pictured After seats were reinstalled they didnt hook the plugs back in for the elctronic seat controls Carpet on doors pulling away Fuel guage not working Old gas line has recently developed a small intermittent drip leak near the back Rearview mirror will come with the car but needs to be reattached as it has become detached Driver and passenger windshields roll up and down as normal, back windshields need to be adjusted as they need help going up and down by pulling them a bit up or down to help the motor out or are possibly misaligned 1 hubcap is damaged and off the car, replacements are not terribly expensive or you can repair the damaged one Weather seals need to be replaced if you plan to drive in the rain (we always used it on nice days with the top down so it never saw rain with us and we never put the top up as it was covered in the climate controlled garage and was a lot more fun to drive with the top down) Clock doesnt apear to be working Brakes need work, has a little bit of stopping power but not much, seems like the brake booster is bad or needs maintenance as its pretty hard when pushing down. Fluid was dark and needed to be changed when i looked ag it. Was stopping fine a little while back so I dont think it's a major issue Cut on the side wall of 1 tire will need to be replaced as well as brakes fixed before driving on the road would be safe 2 Box of random parts will be included as well with the sale from the previous owner. These parts apear to be old parts that were possibly replaced such as antenna and motor, door panel controls, bolts, nuts, screws, seatbelt parts, small interior pieces, 2 headrests. Etc. They seem like old parts that were pulled but may have been saved to be fixed later or used for donor parts etc. This is the car you've been looking for, an incredibly rare collector car with minor issues left to sort out that will keep the price reasonable. This car will surely increase in value as less and less are on the road. Ive added 100 pictures of every angle i could imagine and a 60 video showcasing it running with the sound system going! Please feel free to reach out for additional pictures, videos, etc. If you need anything specific that I may have missed and I'd be happy to assist. This car is located in louisiana in-between Shreveport and Monroe I would be happy to show you this car in person if you would like to set up a time and day to view this vehicle in person so you can review every detail and make sure it's exactly what your looking for
