1972 Cadillac Fleetwood Eldorado Convertible Drop Top Vintage

Description for Cadillac Eldorado 1972

Up for bid is a real nice 1972 Cadillac Fleetwood Eldorado Convertible Front Wheel Drive with 98345 original miles. It has red exterior with white interior and a black dash with black carpet. This car has been partially restored here and there over the last seven years. It has new interior. new carpet. a new battery. new carburetor with kit & float. the whole top half of the motor has been re-built. with new heads. new lifters. push rods and required gaskets. etc. It has a refurbished fuel tank. with new stainless steel lines. It also has a new convertible top motor & relay switch. It has new front brake calipers. pads. hoses rear brake shoes and rear wheel cylinders. The floor and trunk pans are solid. The underbody on the car has been coated for rust protection. The trunk has also been re-lined and carpeted. nbsp;it has the full 15 inch spare tire with bumper jack and accessories. The brake rotors and drums have been resurfaced. The car also has a new muffler. intake gaskets exhaust bolts and manifold bolts and a new air compressor with new tires and new wiper blades. When the new white interior and black carpet was installed. they did not put the old seat belts back in the car due to the non-matching color combination so it does need seatbelts put in. All the windows roll up and down properly and both power door locks work. The radio works but the 8 track portion of it does not. The AC blows cold air and the heat works as it should. This car has the rear defrost option next to the convertible top switch so it has the glass with the defrost lines. It does need a new top so make sure you get the top for the rear defrost and then you just swap out the glass as its still good. The car comes with both red parade boots inside the sleeves (pictured) which go in the trunk when not being used. It also has the original front & back black long two-piece rubber floor mats from 1972 with the white cadillac crests. The car still has the wood grain that boarders/circles the steering wheel. However. to prolong the life of the wood grain on the wheel. I have purchased and installed a new but (old school) style black sport grip steering wheel cover. As extras I also have both stamped square C and oval D Cadillac crest keys with the GM badge on the reverse sides. The car does have a small ding (pictured) on the lower portion of the passengers side rear quarter panel where the paint is missing. There is also a spot on the passengers side fender where the original acrylic paint has started to crack. Besides it needing a new top and seatbelts the only other things I've noticed it can use or need is a new tailpipe to match the new muffler. Hey what can you say. its a 42 year old car! The car has a fresh oil change and new air filter. Although its not required. I do run premium unleaded in this car. Everywhere I drive this car I get oohs. and ahhs. and grins from ear to ear! She's a beauty!!! PLEAS NOTE: I DO START THE CAR AND DRIVE IT AROUND AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK SO THE ACTUAL MILEAGE I HAVE STATED WILL BE A BIT OVER WHAT'S IN THE LISTING. FEEL FREE TO MESSAGE ME WITH ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE THANKS FOR VIEWING AND HAPPY BIDDING!!!
