Seven Hills Motorcars is tremendously proud to offer this
absolutely stunning, low mileage, and numbers matching 1973
Cadillac Eldorado. This Cadillac is in amazing condition with only
51,950 original miles. The car looks beautiful, runs great, and
drives awesome. This survivor Cadillac is a time capsule and an
investment grade classic. The car has great lines and is totally
solid; one can even see how good the car is underneath in the many
photos of the car on a lift. This is an excellent opportunity to
own an exceptional Eldorado that is ready to be used and enjoyed at
an unbeatable value.
This Cadillac is finished in the beautiful, highly desirable, and
iconic color combination of Cotillion White (11) over White/Black
houndstooth (411) with a White vinyl top. This is the factory
original color scheme as verified by the codes on the trim tag,
which is pictured in this ad. This Cadillac has a build date of
"02C," which means it was produced during the third week of
February in 1973. The car is "numbers matching," meaning the engine
in the car is the correct and original unit that was installed in
the factory in 1973. The last six digits of the VIN, 429056, are
stamped on the engine block meaning it is original. The low
original mileage is verified not only by the condition of the car,
but also the clear Ohio title, pictured in this ad, that states the
mileage as "Actual." Please peruse all of the photos, numbers,
video, and information in this ad to get a true sense of clean,
nice, and original this Cadillac really is.
Throughout the entire Cadillac market right now, this is one of the
nicest, and most original front wheel drive Eldorado's available.
There is no way this car could be duplicated or restored with this
level of quality for anything near our asking price. This Eldorado
looks great, runs awesome, and is particularly fun to cruise around
in. This is an excellent opportunity to own a classic Cadillac that
is ready to be used and enjoyed at an unbeatable value. One could
easily buy this car now and sell it for more than the purchase
price in years to come as these classic Cadillac are appreciating
fast and the market on them is red hot right now. It would be very
hard to find another 1973 Cadillac Eldo in this amazing color
combination, let alone one with such low original mileage, in such
excellent condition.
This Eldorado comes with a wealth of original documentation such
the original owner's manual, warranty booklet showing the original
selling dealer and original owner's name, 1973 consumer information
booklet, 1973 Cadillac clean air sheet, 1973 Cadillac Maintenance
booklet, emission information booklet, seatbelt information sheet,
and the original odometer statement from new. It even comes with an
original Cadillac 8-Track cassette tape.
As a side note, this Cadillac is not a dealer auction vehicle. We
hand pick each car after careful inspection. Our classics come from
owners who expect their cars to go to someone that will give the
vehicle the same care and attention as they did. We invite and
encourage you to examine the car in person or have the car
inspected. Please take the time to scrutinize each picture. We
photograph each vehicle to the greatest extent so you can feel
confident about your purchase. If you have a question about the
Eldorado, just give us a call.
Exterior
The Cotillion White (11) exterior is in excellent condition. As one
can see in the photos, the finish has dazzling gloss, smooth
finish, and deep shine. Both of the massive and heavy doors open
and shut nicely. The chrome and other bright work is in great
condition with a brilliant finish. The vinyl top looks very nice
with no rips or cracks and does not show any signs of rust
underneath. The original hubcaps are in great condition with a nice
finish and no curb rash. The tires have plenty of tread left and
are correctly sized 235/70R15. The whitewalls really compliment
with the white paint. There are no major blemishes that have been
intentionally excluded from the photos. As one can see in the many
photos of the underside of the car it is totally solid underneath.
The floor pans are solid and all of the body panels and sheet metal
are original. We have included specific photos of the lower quarter
panels, rockers, frame, spring perches, and other areas most prone
to rust on this generation Cadillac to show how clean this car
is.
Interior
The White/Black houndstooth (411) interior of the Eldorado is in
absolutely outstanding condition. The seats are in excellent shape
with no excessive wear, holes, or split seams. The seats are not
worn in the typical area where the driver gets in and out. Please
note that these appear to be the original seats and skins, not some
cheap aftermarket covers or replacements. The gauge faces are crisp
and clean and the lenses are clear. The chrome and bright work on
the inside of the car also looks wonderful. The carpet is in also
in great condition with no stains, rips, or holes. The original
radio works well; the antenna is stuck about half way up. The dash
and console are in excellent shape with no cracks, fading, or sun
damage. The door panels are in great shape, the arm pad is not
cracked on this car in the typical area where the driver's elbow
sits, which is very common on this era Cadillac. This car has never
been smoked in; there are no burns marks and no aroma of cigarettes
at all. This is one of the best original interiors we have ever
seen in person in a classic Cadillac and is a true study of how
these cars looked from the factory
Cadillac interiors from this era are not known to wear well, and
the excellent condition of this original interior is a huge
testament to the meticulous care and attention this car has
received throughout its life and another great verification of the
very low original mileage. The interior looks just as fantastic in
person as it does in the photos.
Mechanical
This Cadillac Eldorado is in excellent mechanical condition and it
is ready to be enjoyed. The numbers matching 500ci engine starts
right away every time, runs well, and idles smooth. The car is an
exceptional driver that feels great on the road and floats down the
highway. In the video below one can observe the car accelerating on
the highway up to about 70mph, shifting through all the gears,
braking to stoplight, and going through some curves. Please note
that there are no strange noises or vibrations and the car performs
quite well overall. The brakes are responsive and do not pull to
one side or the other. The transmission shifts well throughout the
power band. There is no blue smoke when starting or driving the
car. It runs cool and does not overheat. Also, the engine
compartment is clean, beautifully detailed, and correct as one can
see in the photos.
The horn works as do all the exterior lights, interior lights,
wipers, power windows, power locks, and radio. Even very detailed
items that many buyers would not even know to check work such as
the front seat release when the door is opened, and the trunk
light. The blower for the heater and a/c works. The air
conditioning itself works and blows cold; the a/c system has been
serviced and converted to the more modern r134a freon. All six of
the indicators on top of both front fenders work. All of the gauges
work. Both power seat work in all six directions. Not enough can be
said as to how much of a pleasure it is to drive this car.
