It has the original paint and Interior with only 45,000 original miles. In 1978, Edward C. Kennard, general manager of the Cadillac Motor Division and vice president of General Motors, offered a "special edition" Biarritz package in five colors and easily recognized by its unique, padded vinyl roof, wide body moldings, opera lamps, distinctive Biarritz script, special accent stripes, color coordinated wheel disks and plush interior appointments with 50/50 pillow type leather seating. It had a list price of over $13,000 when appropriately optioned. Mechanical 1978 was the last year for the large, front-wheel drive Eldorado and was truly the end of an iconic automotive era, when bigger was always better. The engine is a cast iron block and head V-8 with displacement of 425 cubic inches developing 180 smooth horsepower at 4,000 RPM backed by an automatic transmission with no known significant engine or transmission repairs needed since new and is loaded with all the power options that could be had back then. The engine compartment also maintains the original factory appearance with components only replaced or repaired as needed and the air conditioning blows cold (was so reliable from new that it was converted to A134 only recently). Interior The beautiful Desirable Biarritz package deluxe pillow seat interior of white leather twin bucket seats is completely original including the factory plush red carpet. The trunk area is complete with the space-saving spare, jack, tools and felt-style liners. No description here will tell you what you need to come see, but I will sum it up in one word....exquisite! Exterior Our survivor Cadillac retains the original Paint and was a One Owner up until 2005, and the same owner since then. It has the original most desirable color combinations "Triple White" with red interior trim offered for the 1978 model year and the white vInyl top in superb overall condition. It rides on the factory steel wheels with bright chrome Cadillac factory hub caps and white wall tires.
