Vehicle Description
The 1967 Cadillac Eldorado is a benchmark classic that set a new
standard. That's why it's terrific to find an example that has a
very vintage presentation, right down to the big V8 under the hood.
It makes for the right kind of distinction on a grand Caddy
coupe.
The Eldorado had always been reserved for premium distinction, and
that took on a whole new dimension for 1967. Available only as a
coupe, it was more expensive than even a DeVille convertible, and
that's why it's rarer. It placed Cadillac firmly in the epicenter
of the late 1960s by giving a muscle car kind of look... still
while not losing its premium values. It had a bold front end with
hidden headlights, even sleeker lines than its jet-age
predecessors, and an imposing width that wanted to own the road.
The red has a cool style with the white vinyl top and matching
pinstripe, and the bumpers made sure to hug the sharp angles of the
car's form. That's how you know this is rolling opulence. So while
you may decide to do a respray or other improvements, there's
something fundamentally attractive when something this significant
is also complete and correct - right down to the wheel covers.
The interior continues the uniquely attractive style and muscle car
flair. After all, we tend to think houndstooth interiors were
inside the best power cars, and the Camaro wouldn't even get the
option until '68. But when it's used here it just adds to the
distinction and the cloth inserts in the seats and doors harmonize
with the black and brightwork that surrounds it. This is a roomy
hardtop that can carry plenty of family and friends. But an
executive-level car like this is also about personal driver
comfort. That's why you have a fold-down front armrest, a
tilt/telescoping steering column, and all the features are within
easy reach. This includes the classic AM/FM/radio, power locks, and
power windows that let you take down all the glass on this
pillarless hardtop.
The 429 cubic-inch motor fills the engine bay. There is an honest
style and this V8 keeps its original spirit right down to the
correct-style four-barrel carburetor. It's a torque-filled
powerhouse built before emissions regulations, and so it lives up
to its muscle car kind of style. But this is not a bruiser; it's a
cruiser. The unique front-wheel-drive setup puts the motor's weight
over the driving wheels, and it also allows for that flat floor
inside where everyone can spread out. And you have a three-speed
automatic transmission, power steering, and power brakes with front
discs to make sure driving this classic still gives you Caddy-style
comfort.
Complete with owner's manual, this is a true hallmark classic. So
while you may look to give it a respray or update the A/C system,
there's also something pretty cool that this car represents from
day one. You have a premium cruiser that set a new bar not only for
Cadillac, but also for premium and powerful luxury across the whole
market. It's The Standard of the World, and so you don't want to
miss this Eldorado. Call today!!!
