during the 1970s more than driving a Cadillac Eldorado and even
more stratospheric arrivals were best done in black models, like
this factory black ?77 Cadillac Eldorado. This was the next-to-last
model year for the land yacht and 1977 marked Cadillac?s 75th
Anniversary. Note this car still has its blue California license
plates and is still sold on a California title with the title
matching the blue plate. This example was made during the first
week of March 1977 in General Motors? Detroit, Michigan assembly
plant (VIN code Q). This example left the assembly line with a Dual
Comfort 50/50 front seat. The rear window and quarter glass have
been tinted. Dressed in factory correct Sable Black (code 19), the
car?s paint and trim are in overall excellent condition, with a few
minor blemishes visible upon closer inspection. The car?s body is
straight and solid, the battery appears new, the cargo area is in
good, original order and the engine bay is very tidy. Note that
this example is bereft of one of the 1970?s most popular features,
a vinyl roof. The car rolls on American Classic wide whitewall
tires, size 235/70R15 at every corner. Each tire is mounted on a
steel wheel topped by a full factory wheel cover. The wheel covers
are all in near excellent condition while the tires are in very
good order. Under that gigantic hood rests Cadillac?s 425 CID V-8
engine with a four-barrel carburetor (VIN code S). Backing the
motor is GM?s Turbo Hydramatic 425 three-speed automatic
transmission for front-drive vehicles, with a 2.73:1 final drive.
Driver convenience features are plentiful: the new-for-?77
Automatic Climate Control, variable-ratio power steering,
Hydro-Boost power four-wheel disc brakes, electronic cruise control
(with Resume and Advance buttons), power windows, power sideview
mirrors, power locks, Dual Comfort 50/50 front seat with two center
fold-down armrests with a six-way power seat adjuster for the
driver and a power antenna. The factory air conditioning is
complete but is currently inoperable at the clutch and the rear
power antenna is missing. The car features a new resonator and
tailpipe and there?re a spare tire and jack in the trunk and also
included with the factory radio. Inside, the car?s Black Sierra
Grain Leather interior (code 192) is offset by swaths of brown wood
on the inner door panels and across the expansive instrument panel,
which all look great. The split front bench and full rear bench
seats are in very good condition, as are the matching carpet and
headliner above. A pair of handles on the backsides of the front
bench help with ingress and egress and are an echo of features
found in rear seats of 1930s and 1940s Cadillacs. The massive, flat
passenger floor looks even larger when finished in black. A
typical, two-spoke Cadillac steering wheel is present. The black
instrument panel presents minimal instrumentation ? a ribbon-style
speedometer and a fuel gauge. Every other major engine function was
covered by warning lights, as was usual during the Disco Era. A
column-mounted shift lever and a retro-style AM/FM radio complete
the interior and the A/C is inop. For 1977, the Eldorado received a
new grille with a finer crosshatch pattern. New vertical taillamps
were relocated to the bumper-fender extensions. New ?Eldorado?
block-lettering appeared on the hood face and new rectangular side
marker lights with ?Eldorado? block-lettering replaced the
?Eldorado? script on the rear fenders. Competition to this Eldorado
in 1977 included BMW?s 633CSi, Buick?s Riviera, Chrysler?s New
Yorker Brougham Coupe, Lincoln?s new-for-1977 Continental Mark V,
Mercedes-Benz?s 450SL, Oldsmobile?s Toronado, Rolls-Royce?s
Corniche and Stutz?s Blackhawk. If you?re a land yacht fan, you
couldn?t do much better or bigger than this Eldorado in the 1970s.
It was a pinnacle of luxury, comfort and opulence during a decade
renowned for being self-centered. Stop by MotoeXotica Classic Cars
