Following the substantial restyling for 1969, influenced by the new-for-1967 Eldorado, only detail refinements were deemed necessary for 1970 and 1971. The DeVille hardtop sedan and equally strong-selling Coupe DeVille 2-door hardtop were Cadillac's most important models of the era, accounting for 69,345 and 66,081 built out of total Cadillac production of 188,537 for model year 1971, including this exceptionally well preserved and highly original example. Offered with just over 17,250 original miles and retaining the original paint finish, this unusually well preserved 1971 Cadillac Coupe DeVille exemplifies Cadillac's trademark power and prestige. Built at Cadillac's Linden, New Jersey factory during May 1971 and accompanied by the original sale invoice, it was sold new by the Fries Cadillac Company to Mr. and Mrs. Kern of Pennsylvania, who would use the vehicle only sparingly and preserve it during their ownership. Ordered in black-on-black livery and quite rare without the customary vinyl roof covering, the Coupe DeVille's original options and accessories included Climate Control A/C, an AM/FM radio, Soft Ray tinted glass, a 6-way power-adjustable front seat, and headlamp control. Cadillac's proprietary 472 CI V-8 engine, rated at 345 horsepower, is paired with a Turbo-Hydramatic 400 automatic transmission. Methodical mechanical service work performed 2018-21 addressed the Cadillac's A/C system, brakes, interior and exterior lighting, suspension, brakes, exhaust, and various gaskets and seals. A of four new tires was also fitted in 2021. Records for these works are included with the sale of this beautifully presented and highly original 1971 Cadillac Coupe DeVille.
