1972 Cadillac Eldorado

BACKGROUND: During its 50-year production that spanned 10 generations, its competitors ranged from the Lincoln Mark series to the Chrysler Imperial Crown Coupe. The name Eldorado is the combination of two Spanish words which translate to "the golden one." The seventh generation of the Eldorado ran from 1971 to 1978. In 1971 the Eldorado underwent many changes and upgrades. The overall length of the car grew 2 inches, but the wheel base grew 6 inches. Fender skirts returned and the rear quarter windows were removed. In their place were fixed "opera" styled windows that were intended to mask the widened C-pillar.

Options for this 1972 Cadillac Eldorado include Air Conditioning, AM/FM Radio, Hub Caps, Power Brakes, Power Steering, Power Locks, Power Seats, Power Windows, Tilt/Telescopic Wheel, Seat Belts, Leather Interior, and White Wall Radial Tires. The Eldorado was a personal luxury car that was produced by Cadillac from the model years 1953 to 2002.

Powering this big girl down the road is the numbers matching 8.2L 500 cubic inch monster V8 engine. The numbers matching 3 speed automatic transmission transfers the power to the front axle flawlessly. This Eldorado has received a recent spray of the original red metallic paint, as well as a new white vinyl roof. The original burgundy leather interior shows little wear and matches the exterior color combination perfectly. This 72' Eldorado is sure to turn heads, whether it's on a Sunday cruise to church or to a car show across town.
