Vehicle Description
1977 Cadillac Eldorado Coupe
The Cadillac Eldorado driven by Jeremy Renner as character Carmine
Polito, (who was based on former Mayor of Camden, New Jersey,
Angelo Errichetti) in the film "American Hustle" features plenty of
mid '70's hairstyles, and clothing, and also an Eldorado of the
same color and model as this '77 Eldorado. It's the perfect car for
someone playing a high roller in the 1970's.
For consignment a very good condition car that has been in the same
family for the past 42 years. It has always been garaged, and never
been out in the rain or snow. A respray of matching color and some
replacements of brake lines and rubber was renewed in 2007.
Exterior
Cerulean Blue drapes the straight steel panels on this car. For its
age and the excessive length and size of these panels, the car is
amazingly straight, and gaps are very good. An original dark blue
padded roof covers the B and C pillars at the rear passenger
compartment. This top is in excellent condition. Chrome bumpers and
badging appears in good condition and some areas of wear can be
seen on the door handles and mirrors. Standard exterior color
matching wheel covers are adorning all 4 corners.
Interior
Slip inside of the ultra-spacious interior and on to full padded
leather in light blue. Slight wear, but very good condition
overall. Same for the thick pile carpet that covers the floor
inviting you to step in with your bare feet. A beautiful dash
stretches door to door and has all the power amenities available
right at your fingertips...power door locks, power windows, power
mirrors, climate control, cruise control, power steering, rear
defogger, and AM/FM/8 track radio. Blue vinyl mixed with wood trim
spans through the door panels as well. A showroom condition
headliner is seen above. Consigner states that the digital clock
stopped working, the left indicator bulb for the high beam needs
replacing, and the AC needs to be charged.
Drivetrain
The 425ci V8 sits in an original engine bay, where some parts are
showing surface rust and minor corrosion. Despite this the engine
runs great.
Undercarriage
Upon close inspection one can spy some surface rust, but it is
minimal at best. The undercarriage shows the original factory
undercoating. Consigner states new tires all around with less than
50 miles on them, obviously just put on.
This very large, very luxurious car well maintained and taken care
of like a favorite toy, by members the same family is here for
consignment. A test drive reveals this car drives like a dream and
includes a great 8 track tape for your driving enjoyment. A classic
that lets everyone know you've arrived, even if the back of the car
has yet to!
