68 Cadillac Eldorado
This stunning 1968 Cadillac Eldorado (same
body as 1967, 1969, 1970...but perhaps the
most desirable year since improvements on
the introductory 1967 year had been made,
and 1969-1970 lost the beautiful hidden headlights)
has been officially certified by The Milestone
Car Society as a postwar classic. There has
been A LOT of press on this car lately. It's
on the cover of the latest Classic Cars issue,
and it's included with million-dollar cars
in a new book "365 Cars You Must Drive"
(shown for illustration purposes only). Consider
too that the Milestone Car Society status
is not lightly given...there are many great
cars (like 1964-1966 Thunderbirds, for example)
that are NOT yet certified as postwar classics.
This series of Eldorado is receiving a lot
of appreciative press lately...a recent Motor
Trend Classics issue featured this series,
and the exhaustive 300 page "American
Classics Past & Present" features
an enthusiastic double-page spread on the
car. In today's overheated market for 1960s
musclecars that sell all the way up to hundreds
of thousands of dollars and more...the 1967-1968
Eldorado is on the verge of rediscovery and
dramatic appreciation.
This fine example was owned by a private
party who had spent countless hours detailing
and improving the car. It has beautiful silver
paint with a rich black leather interior
and factory applied vinyl top. The famed
472 cubic inch engine starts promptly and
runs smoothly. Excellent power steering with
factory tilt. New brake shoes with brake
lines inspected and replaced where necessary.
All four tires and spare are virtually new.
Very enjoyable to drive. New heater core
provides robust heat. Exquisitely detailed
and restored dash appears virtually new with
ALL lenses polished and new laser-cut real
walnut inlay installed to match original
factory finish. Impressive and original genuine
walnut inlays on both doors and rear passenger
control consoles. Original AM-FM radio worked
very well, but has been bypassed in favor
of a hidden (in glove compartment) radio/CD
player combination with high-end Rockford
Fosgate woofers (two 5.25") and beautifully
integrated top-of dash tweeters (which are
quite inconspicuous) upfront. In back, are
two hidden (under rear window package shelf)
6" by 9" two-way speakers. In sum,
you have the classic look, but very modern
and powerful sound. However, if the new owner
wishes to return the radio to all-original
specs...it would be a relatively easy and
straightforward job. All power windows are
operational...and the rear windows slide
back into the roof in a really cool manner.
The classic vacuum operated headlights have
been rebuilt and work flawlessly. Nice trunk
area...note that an additional glove compartment
door is included to upgrade the original.
The air inlet valve for rear airshocks
- located conveniently (but out of sight)
in the trunk threshold area. This car is
also very well documented with the original
Owner's Manual, original 1968 letter from
Cadillac, and complete Repair and Body Manuals
(all included as shown). Overall, a stunning car that commands attention
and admiration everywhere it goes...
