The Auction
This is a very clean 1997
Cadillac Eldorado ETC (Eldorado Touring Coup) in excellent mechanical
condition: Strong engine and transmission. Drive it anywhere with confidence! It’s listed as a No Reserve auction, beginning at $0.99 because I’m very confident that this car will pull in fair
market value given the powerful selling points listed below that separates this
car from most all other listings.
Why Buy?
Buy with confidence as I have 100% buyer and seller rating
on E-Bay. I am always 100% honest in all
business transactions. I am one of the few remaining men in our society with
unwavering integrity; regardless of the amount of money involved in the
transaction, my integrity cannot be influenced, period!
That being said, unlike most ebay
auto sellers who only tell you the good aspects about their car and provide few
pictures, I have taken the time to outline every detail (both good and bad, w/pictures) about this car so there will be no surprises. With my listing you
know precisely what you’re getting!
The Details
As you’re well aware the ETC is the difficult-to-find, more
desirable model because of the increased engine performance with 275 HP at 5600
RPM and 300 ft-lbs of torque at 4000 RPMs. This ETC I’m selling not only gives you the amazing power and
responsiveness of a luxury sports car, but this one is also “easy on the wallet”
as it averages 18mpg City and 29 - 30mpg Highway.
The purchase will come with all of the original
documentation, owner’s manuals, mint condition Cadillac sales brochure, the
original production manifest and the window sticker that shows the suggested
retail price of $47, 250.
This ETC has all power options that were offered by
Cadillac. Some of the highlights
include: 8-way power driver and passenger seat w/lumbar, driver seat memory, duel heated seats, duel climate control, rear AC/Heat, premium Bose stereo and
speakers, sunroof and 10-disc CD changer.
I put a lot of money into it so that I could confidently
market this car to buyers who don’t want to put any money into maintenance over
the next several years of ownership. With
your purchase you’ll receive receipts for all of the parts listed below as new.
Note: I am a very competent
mechanic with over 25 years of experience maintaining my cars. The difference between me and your shop
mechanic is that I’m a perfectionist with everything I do. I know how to
actually diagnose the problem & isolate root cause as opposed to the shop
mechanics who simply throw parts at it. I also follow all manufacturer instructions and torque specs with all
work.

This car is rust free inside and
out. If you would like to come and
inspect prior to bidding, you’re more than welcome to borrow my jack so you can
inspect the undercarriage and frame; in fact, feel free to bring your mechanic
with you to do a full inspection.
Less than Mint
Everything on this car works just as it should and is in
excellent shape apart from the list below of blemishes/imperfections:
Small tear (1.5” in length) on edge of driver’s
seat (see picture). Could likely be sewn.Radio antenna does not fully retract; it extends
all the way but doesn’t retract the last 5 inches. It’s a $40 part to replace and 15min easy-labor
fix. The leather/vinyl dash pad has shrunk due to the
sun and the plastic defroster vent does not fit the way it’s supposed to. It’s
hardly noticeable but if you look carefully at the pictures you can see
it. A replacement dash is $200-$250 on
Ebay and it is a very simply job requiring 20 minutes labor. If you buy a replacement dash, I’ll install
it for free or I can show you how to replace it. There is a tiny ding in driver front quarter
panel that is about the size of a BB, again only noticeable if you really look
hard (see picture).
Happy Bidding
Lastly, this Eldorado has a very healthy sounding engine; it
runs very strong & quiet and it shifts perfect through all gears. Given the work that’s been done, the only
mechanical work that I could possibly see needing done in the next 3+ years
would be struts and shocks.
If you have any questions or want to arrange a day and time
to come and take her for a drive, feel free to email me or call or text me at
309-287-903eight.
Thanks for looking! Cal
