1976 Cadillac Eldorado 2 door convertible. Condition is Used. 1976 was one of the the last years for the big Cadillac convertibles. This car is front wheel drive with a 500 cubic inch engine, and runs on premium unleaded gasoline. The ride is smooth, and you know you are in a classic luxury car. It is in above average condition and within the last two years has had a lot of mechanical and metal work done. This work includes, but is not limited to, new exhaust, tires, headlights, map light, dash cover, hood insulation, rebuilt master cylinder and hydro boost, CV boots, brake pads and hoses, front axle, dash cover, door panels, carpet (not installed), spark plugs, plug wires, wiper motor, rear tail light lens covers, a new hub cap (refurbished) and sun visors. The back seat has been reupholstered, and the AC system has been converted/recharged. Additionally, it comes with new valve covers and gaskets, another windshield wiper motor, 2 volume shop manual, coil, good car cover, proper touch up paint (matched and mixed at professional paint shop), upper dash cover, and users manual. The radio is mp3 ready, with connections in the glove box. The windshield washer does not work (may be clogged since the wiper motor was just replaced), it has some minor paint bubbling around the top moldingand over one rear wheel well, and the automatic emergency brake release does not work (it can be released manually with your foot). I have never used the cruise control, and do not know if it works. Therefore, I have not listed it as an option. A rear quarter panel, the trough around the trunk lid, and several areas around the wheel wells have been repaired with metal and repainted. In preparation of sale I had the car examined and a considerable amount of work done. The servicing tech told me the engine and transmission have been rebuilt. I found a receipt from the prior owner showing this occurred approximately 2,000 miles ago, in 2014. The receipts I have will be included with the car. I estimate this Eldorado is 90 percent restored. It is currently very presentable and a pleasant driver. The chrome is good, and it is a head turner whenever we are out in it.While this Cadillac is a beautiful car, and has been dependable, it is sold as is.Thank you for looking. |
