This Cadillac Eldorado Convertible is in good cosmetic shape and great mechanical shape! With its recent rebuild of the A/C. One switch still needs adjusting but blows cold. The 500 in engine runs like new. Gaskets may need replacing as a minor transmission fluid leak has begun. Radiator and cooling system is solid, ires newer. Some surface rust at bottom of doors(have pics), ut only surface rust. Radio works for AM/FM but 8 track player is on the list for repairs. Antenna works but motor disconnected. Not sure why there is also a windshield antenna, ut it’s there. One speaker (front right) is being researched for replacement.
Dash has no fade or cracks. Leather is good but some wear on driver’s No cracks on interior vinyl. It tracks in a nice straight line right down the highway. Rides like a dream, r the so-called land yacht. Super steady at top highway speeds.
