Vehicle Description
Massive yet elegant, the 1979 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz in
Colonial Yellow represents what American luxury looked like when
bigger truly meant better. Built during an era when Cadillac
dominated the luxury market, this Biarritz model adds extra
sophistication with its distinctive vinyl and stainless steel roof
treatment. The expansive hood and trunk sections create a balanced
profile that stretches impressively from end to end. Factory wire
wheels sized at 15 inches work in perfect harmony with the
215/75R15 tires to complete the classic Cadillac presence, making
it clear this is no ordinary automobile but rather the flagship of
GM's luxury division.
Yellow leather covers the interior surfaces, creating a bright,
open environment that welcomes passengers into a world of 1970s
luxury. The split-bench seats provide ample space and comfort for
extended road trips. Brown shag carpeting runs throughout the
cabin, adding authentic period texture and warmth to the space. The
column shifter maintains the uncluttered design philosophy while
allowing for maximum front seat space. An AM/FM cassette player
with CB integration offers entertainment options befitting a
premium vehicle of its day, completing the carefully crafted
interior that defines late-seventies American automotive
luxury.
Mounted transversely in the engine bay sits a 350 cubic inch V8
engine connected to a Turbo-Hydramatic 425 three-speed automatic
transmission. This front-wheel-drive powertrain was revolutionary
for a luxury vehicle of this size when introduced. Electronic fuel
injection provides reliable performance in all weather conditions.
The recently replaced power steering pump gives excellent
directional control despite the substantial dimensions. Four-wheel
power disc brakes bring the Eldorado to controlled stops, while the
dual-to-single-to-dual exhaust system with chambered mufflers
produces a subdued yet authoritative exhaust note appropriate for a
vehicle of this caliber.
