This 1978 Cadillac Eldorado is an exceptionally well-preserved
example of Cadillac's full-size personal luxury coupe, showing just
1,300 original miles. Presented in its original Arizona Beige and
Demitasse Brown Metallic two-tone exterior, the car retains the
unmistakable presence of a late-1970s Eldorado, with its long hood,
formal roofline, extensive chrome trim, fender skirts, and classic
Cadillac wheel covers with whitewall tires. Its remarkably low
mileage and highly original condition make it a standout survivor
from the final year of this generation Eldorado.
The interior is equally impressive, finished in beige and brown
leather with deeply cushioned, button-tufted seating and extensive
woodgrain trim throughout the cabin. The condition is consistent
with the extraordinarily low mileage, with the dashboard,
carpeting, upholstery, door panels, controls, and trim all
presenting beautifully. The car remains largely as Cadillac
delivered it, and everything is reported to be in working
order.
Power comes from Cadillac's 425ci V8, paired with an automatic
transmission and Cadillac's front-wheel-drive system. While
originality has been carefully preserved, the Eldorado has also
benefited from substantial recent mechanical attention to make it
ready to enjoy. Service records document work including replacement
of the CV axles, rear air shocks, fuel pump, radiator and heater
hoses, sway-bar end links, drive belts, battery, and control-arm
bushings. The braking system received extensive service including
rotors, pads, calipers, hoses, master cylinder, and fresh brake
fluid, while the transmission was serviced and the carburetor
rebuilt and retested. The fuel tank was also removed and cleaned,
followed by a four-wheel alignment and synthetic oil and filter
service.
Additional work included converting the air-conditioning system
from R12 to R134a, helping retain the comfort expected from a
Cadillac while making the system more practical to service today.
The maintenance documentation reflects a significant investment in
addressing age-related components despite the car's exceptionally
limited use.
With only 1,300 original miles, original finishes, an outstanding
interior, extensive recent servicing, and all major equipment
functioning as intended, this 1978 Cadillac Eldorado offers an
unusual combination of preservation and usability. Rather than a
restored example, this is an opportunity to own an extraordinarily
low-mileage survivor that still displays the materials, finishes,
and character that made the Eldorado one of Cadillac's flagship
luxury automobiles of the era.
Price does not include applicable tax, title, license, processing,
and/or $240 documentation fees.
