Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz (1978)
for sale

Price: US $4,000.00

Description:

This is an amazing riding piece of Americana. It’s like floating on a marshmallow and everywhere you drive people give you thumbs up. This car is cruise and show ready. I’ve taken an hour and half rides to car shows, dusted it off and talked nonstop to people at shows. It’s a blast to drive with the family and very comfortable on the road. With a 27 gallon tank and a huge V8, a beautiful day turns into a relaxing adventure. It has enough room to throw in a tent, chairs, tables and enough food for everybody in the trunk. The stereo sounds great (I use a stereo FM transmitter) and we jam on down the road listening to our favorite playlist.
The only parts of the car that does not work are the power antenna and dash clock, other than that the left turn signal is weak. The signal works but it’s just not bright. On the passenger door are two door dings, and there are a couple of small spots around the vinyl that need to be touched up. Considering this car is almost 40 it’s still in better shape than some newer cars and it’s a true joy to drive and has more style. All the lights work inside and out plus all the cigarette lighters front and back work. This car has been well maintained and wintered. It’s mostly original with a few new parts that were replaced due to normal use ( breaks, plugs, wires, clutch fan). I recently replaced the rear fender extenders because they looked bad.
