1971 Cadillac Eldorado

500 ci Convertible

8 - Cyl.

Automatic

Gasoline

Here is my toy for which I am now selling due to other reasons, I love this car and bought it in rough shape about 4 years ago and I have fixed anything major that was wrong with it including, New brakes & Rotors- New Starter- New Battery - New motor for the top- just to fix what was wrong with it. I then had a New paint job on it- New convertible top- to make it look as awesome as it does. This car runs great a blast to drive if you love boats, she's smooth and straight and has unbelievable power as the great 500 CI is known for and they last forever. The painter of this car found no rust on the body, he had one tiny spot to fix before painting and that was it. Car is in great running shape what it needs done to it is basically other cosmetic things to get perfect, great minor projects car, also has the unique top vented trunk as shown in pictures. The car needs Interior work: basically the back seat, ripped at top etc really needs replaced however all the rest of car is original and in great shape, just needs some cleaning and TLC. Now here are the small things that are wrong with this car as she sets, tires ok but I was planning to put new ones on if I kept it, as I was taking pictures for this ad for some reason top wouldn t go all the way down, so scissor arms on the top frame are jamming somewhere so will nee to be looked at, did work great closing back up, has new motor and transistor on top, just jams up on frame, shouldn t be to hard to fix, the new convertible top has a piece of wood instead of metal bar underside but that affects nothing. Top is year old and paint job is 1 1/2 year old, the paint job on this car has some problems on one side of car, pictures will show for somereason the paint broken or split on the one side, hard to see unless really looking at but is there in areas on the passenger side, mostly around the door, also is a couple scratches at bottom rear fender, I hit half barrel backing out of driveway right after having it painted and is on the drivers side, hood looks a little faded where you can tell the car was over sanded, from what Im told this car was sanded 3 different times.. Now this has the mirror bases as shown but no mirrors or wiring for the mirrors, the turn signals on hood are there with wiring but not hooked up.The turn signals in car work but dont blink, Im sure thats the bulbs and comes with new ones in packages.The driver door as you open hits the front fender as it has a week pin, so you have to pick up on door till you get a new pin in the hinge. Trunk has new rubber seal and old spare rim, old style jack which I love and crow bar. Car shows about 90 thousand miles which aint nothing for old cars like this, when driving there are a lot of squeeks that needed to be worked out in doors, windows etc and many little things that were never hooked back up, door straps etc, the windows work but do stick occasionally, air works but may need charged, heater works, has radio in in but not working, I believe its not hooked up anywhere and i never messed with it. This is a great car for the right person, you will grow to love her just as I do, sad to see her go, I will help in delivery best I can, would what at least 500 dollar deposit at auction closed preferably through Paypal and rest within few days, you can call me anytime to talk about this car at 419-610-8049 P.S. this car has always started on the first turn of the key.
