1978 was Cadillac's last year for the large Eldorado. To
commemorate this, Cadillac made a very limited production called
the Eldorado Custom Biarritz Classic. Cadillac produced a total of
46,816 Eldorado in 1978. This special build of only 2,000 total
units was announced to Cadillac dealers in April of 1978 and was
produced between May and July of 1978. The "Eldorado Classic"
shared all of the special features of the Custom Biarritz, plus the
following distinct additions: Unique two tone exterior of Arizona
Beige and Demitasse Brown, dark brown Biarritz-style accent
striping, light beige interior trim with dark Saddle leather
'pillowed' seat cushion and back rests, Light Beige Elk Grain
Cabriolet-style vinyl half roof, Gold-plated Biarritz scripts on
the sail panels and deck lid, leather-wrapped steering wheel and
color-matched wheel discs. The Classic option was an additional
cost of $2,466. All 2,000 of the Eldorado Classics got their
special treatment at American Sunroof, located 7 miles from the
Cadillac factory in Southgate, Michigan. At American Sunroof, they
received the Demitasse Brown paint to the hood and the front half
of the roof. They applied roof caps for the padded Cabriolet-style
vinyl half top and the interior rear window trim. The trim
down-sized the rear window glass, giving it its unique styled
appearance. The stainless steel Biarritz trim molding and special
gold-plated Biarritz scripts were added as well as the Dark Brown
exterior accent striping. 500 of the 2,000 were equipped with a
power sunroof option. This is not one of those vehicles. A sticker
was also placed on the upper driver's side door jam, showing the
vehicles manufacturer date and when American Sunroof had completed
their part of the customization. This completed the special
treatment added by American Sunroof to the Eldorados and they were
returned to the Cadillac factory. This automobile was purchased new
at Taylor Cadillac in Van Wert, Ohio. It is 1 of only 1,500 without
a sunroof from this very limited afore mentioned run of only 2,000
Custom Biarritz Classics.
It has the following features that you would expect from a high-end
Cadillac: 425cid engine, 50/50 seating with fold down arm rests and
dual 6-way power, climate control, cruise control, tile and
telescoping steering wheel, power windows, power door locks,
Sentinel auto dimming headlights, AM/FM stereo with built-in
factory CB, power antenna, delay wipers, dual remote rear view
mirrors, lighted passenger make-up mirror, remote electronic trunk
release, load leveler, and only 4,824 original miles!
This Eldorado would be a great addition to any collection, car show
or cruise night. It is an awesome driver. It is ready to take home
the trophies at a car show! The exceptional condition of this
automobile, combined with its extreme rarity and ultra-low mileage
make it very desire able and highly collectible. This is an
incredibly well preserved Cadillac. This is truly a time capsule.
It has obviously has been maintained since new with only 4,824
miles put on this gem.
Rev Up Motors owns this Eldorado, unlike many of the "Dealers" out
there. We invest our own money in quality vehicles. Unlike the BIG
consignment "Dealers" out there that take everything and anything
just to pay for their overhead and "Sales Staff". They charge the
customer a fee to "Market" the vehicle. The consignment "Dealers"
do not anything mechanically to the consignors vehicle. All of the
vehicles at Rev Up Motors have been inspected for safety and for
their mechanical operation. This is all done by a Licensed ASE
Certified Master Technician.
The exterior is exceptional condition. The paint is STUNNING as you
can see in the pictures and video. It is very smooth and swirl
free. This one has survived extremely well as most do not. The
paint in original as we have paint metered every panel. The trim,
bumpers, glass and vinyl top are all in excellent condition.
The interior is in awesome condition as you can see in the
pictures. It is a non smoker vehicle since new.
The engine bay is very stock in appearance and clean! This Cadillac
runs and drives out very nice as well. It does have a newer exhaust
system from the catalytic converter back. It cold starts nice and
idles down properly. It drives out tight and straight down the
road. The undercarriage is rock solid with no rust issues on any of
the sheetmetal. It was "lightly" undercoated when it was new.
The trunk area features its original spare tire that has never
touched the ground and all of its jack tools.
