While the full-size Eldorado series had migrated to a front engine/front wheel drive platform with a new 500ci V8, the Coupe de Ville continued the more traditional rear wheel drive route with encouragement coming from a still monstrous 472ci V8. Following a major redesign in 1971, the car received continual improvements and more standard features each year. Big news for 1973 was the new energy-absorbing front bumpers and wider grilles. This proved to be the final year of the Coupe de Ville and total de Ville production reached a new record at 216, 243!
We are beyond excited to offer this 1973 Cadillac Coupe de Ville! The car is finished in its factory original 68 – Burnt Sienna Metallic with original S – Light Beige vinyl top over original 385 – Antique Dark Saddle leather upholstery. It should come as no surprise that under the hood lies the car’s original 472ci V8 with 4-barrel carburetor! Standard features included power steering, power brakes (front disc), power windows and cornering lights! In addition to the base price of $6, 268.40, this Coupe de Ville has the following options: vinyl roof, leather upholstery, front license frame, front/rear rubber floor mats, white wall tires, AM/FM Stereo radio with tape player & power antenna, all soft-ray glass, 6-way front seat adjuster, door edge guards, automatic climate control, power door locks & seat belt release, tilt/telescoping steering wheel, remote control trunk lock, cruise control, Guide-matic headlamp control, trumpet horn, lamp monitors, bumper impact strips and illuminated passenger vanity mirror! 19 factory options resulted in a $8, 323.65 sticker price after destination charge!
This Coupe de Ville was assembled in Detroit, Michigan and delivered new to Kenneth & B.L. Sullivan by Curry Cadillac of Bloomfield, Indiana on June 5th, 1973. Records indicate that the car had 16 miles at this time. They owned the car until 2006; after 33 years of climate controlled storage, it made its way to the second owner in California! This owner held onto the car until late 2014, where it was sold to the previous owner, a local executive and all-around car enthusiast. He stored the car with us since day one and it saw frequent use on nice weekends and special occasions. A perfectionist, he had the carburetor rebuilt, all fluids flushed and regular details. Today, the car shows 27, 710 original miles and the St. Louis Car Museum staff is quite sure that this is the nicest original 1973 Coupe de Ville currently for sale anywhere on the market. This car is a rolling testament to regular maintenance and an obsession to detail. Everything works – radio, antenna, cruise, control, clock, lights, gauges, lamp monitors on the hood and rear parcel shelf. Cosmetically, only the smallest imperfections can be found with a very meticulous eye. The paint issues that seemed to plague 70s and 80s GM cars seem to have spared the life of the beautiful Burnt Sienna Metallic paint; it could pass for 1973 new. The front and rear filler pieces that separate the bumper from the car are not only intact but the same color as the rest of the car…no cracks, no discoloration. Similarly, the interior is all original with supple upholstery, door panels, crack-free dash, clean trim & carpet making it show-ready. Only the smallest creases can be found in the sumptuous leather seats; it seems the back seats were last touched by the Cadillac assembly line worker installing them. The motor and undercarriage are also in excellent unrestored condition, with only minor signs of being utilized on the nicest sunny days.
Included with this Coupe de Ville is the original window sticker, new vehicle warranty and policy on service booklet with original owner names, GM key tote, 1973 Cadillac consumer information booklet, 1973 Cadillac emission control systems information and warranty booklet, and 1973 Cadillac owner’s manual. Over the last 20 years of business, we have seen a number of exceptionally low mile early 70s Cadillacs and even several with less than 10, 000 miles that aren’t as nice as this one. This is a true investment-grade original automobile in every sense of the word and should be driven, enjoyed and shown if desired. Whether reliving a past memory or wanting to know what a brand new ’73 Caddy would feel like, this is a unique opportunity for enthusiasts of the brand to pick up a time capsule. We would invite any interested parties to come and view the car in person or call with additional questions! We are sure that it will exceed your expectations! Thanks for looking!
