Vehicle Description
1957 Cadillac Eldorado Seville 2-Door Coupe equipped with the
factory dual quad carburetor option. With only 2100 produced , we
can safely call it rare and hard to find. This California Survivor
has been stored indoors and has not been registered since 1979.
Only 94, 792 miles. The car was recently brought to dry climate
Arizona where it has undergone extensive mechanical work to prepare
the car for road worthiness. This includes a completely rebuilt
brake system front to back, and the fuel system has been gone
through which includes rebuilt carburetors, fuel tank and sending
unit replacement, lines and fuel pump. Belts and hoses have been
replaced, and the radiator has been rebuilt. Tires, battery and
shock absorbers have been addressed as well. This Eldorado runs and
drives extremely well. Inspection of the vehicle exterior body will
reveal one older re-paint (factory Bahama Blue) with straight body
panels and good body panel fit. Some minor rust bubbles forming at
the bases of both doors, and likely caused by clogged weep holes
over the years. With the exception of both mirrors and exhaust
bezels, the exterior trim items are in very good to excellent
condition. All glass panels are in exceptional condition. The
interior is well preserved although the seat upholstery needs to be
replaced. The Chrome trim items inside the car are in great shape
with no pitting. Some of the chrome looks hazy in the pictures, and
nothing a little elbow grease won't cure. A look underneath the
dashboard will reveal a wiring harness that is soft and pliable
with no cracked wires, so the new owner will not have to deal with
that nightmare installation. Everything works with the exception of
the radio and clock. The windshield wipers are a little lazy from a
vacuum leak. The owner did not take much time to track down. A
wonderful sight when looking underneath the car. The undercarriage
has been professionally media blasted with a thin coat of sealant
applied.
