219 actual miles!! This is an amazing time capsule, literally! It
was stored in a sealed container from 1978- 2018. Cadillac
announced this would be the last of the big Eldos. They offered
this Custom Biarritz Classic as a last hurrah. A gentleman from
Detroit thought this could be a great investment opportunity. He
prepped it for long term hibernation by draining the fuel and
oiling the rubber. It was then tucked away in a dry container not
to see daylight for 40 years. No moisture or mice damage. The
window sticker is still glued to the window. We have original
license plate, finance contract, registration card
EXTERIOR: Incredibly well preserved, original survivor with no
damage or rust. No door dings. The paint is the original two tone
combination with factory pinstriping. Other than very minor
imperfections it still looks new, amazing considering it's age. All
the chrome and trim on the car is shiny and straight. The padded
vinyl top is still excellent. The hubcaps weren't even on the car,
they were kept wrapped separately. They are like brand new. The
tires were just replaced. The rubber weather strips are still
pristine. Glass is crystal clear.
INTERIOR: Amazing all original condition. And oh my God, you want
to talk about luxury and comfort. I want this seat in my house.
Pillow top leather cushions. It is a split bench seat with power on
both sides and power reclining on the passenger side. I'm looking
at a dashboard that is absolutely like brand new immaculate
condition. The chrome sparkles, the clock is still working. It
features a leather wrapped, tilt-telescopic steering wheel. There's
no splits or cracks in the armrests or dash pad. Headliners, seat
belts, carpet, floormats are pristine. It still has the original
plastic steering wheel wrapper and plastic seat covers.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: The motor compartment looks new. Very well
preserved and it has been carefully detailed. All the components
are still original. The air cleaner assembly has the ductwork and
heat riser tube, original hose clamps, smog equipment is complete.
It has the pump for automatic ride leveler. Runs as smooth as a
mouse in slippers.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: It has power trunk release and automatic pull
down, both work. Of course the jack and spare have never been out.
The carpet liner still looks new. Has original air bottle to fill
the spare. It has the optional rubber mat over the carpet
liner.
UNDERSIDE: It was incredibly well preserved and documented on video
as 100% original. It has recently been detailed being very mindful
of keeping it's original integrity. It is front wheel drive. The
front end components are immaculate. The body bushings, fuel and
brake lines, exhaust look excellent. The floors are amazingly
clean, still showing factory primer. It has auto leveling
system.
A true time capsule. Where will you ever get an opportunity like
this again? Not only likely the lowest mile 78 Caddy in existence
but also has a great story. How many cars were sealed up for 40
years! They dont make anything like this anymore.
I, Jay Grams, take pride in personally writing the descriptions for
virtually every car for about the last 30 years now. A significant
amount of effort goes into fact checking. What I am offering is my
professional impression of the vehicle.
Our salesmen are happy to assist with descriptions and making sure
your questions are answered. One great suggestion is letting us do
a walk around video that explains the car's condition in
detail.
