Description of 1970 Cadillac Eldorado

1970 Cadillac Eldorado 500 cubic engine 8. liter 400 HP 550 ft lbs torque 80. 50 ORIGINAL MILES The car has a excellent body. the rockers are not rusted out like most all 67-70 Eldorados. this was a dessert car most of its life and the steel body is in great shape. The fitment is excellent. I have never seen the gaps on any car to be as perfect as this vehicle. The doors open and close smoothly with no bounce-back or recoil. The engine is running strong as shown in the recent video however any new buyer should fully have the car evaluated before driving. I power washed the engine on 11-29-2014 and cleaned the carburetor. and vacuumed out the gas tank and put in fresh fuel and changed the gas filter and the car engine is running strong as demonstrated the linked video posted on youtube. I have done nothing else to the car and have fully disclosed everything I know about the car. SHE IS AN EXCELLENT CANDIDATE FOR RESORATION !PLEASE NOTE: THIS CAR WILL BE SOLD BY THE END OF THIS LISTING EITHER AS A COMPLETE VEHICLE OR WILL BE PARTED OFF AS INDIVIDUAL COMPONENT SALES.

The grille itself had a cross-hatched insert. but horizontal blades were set upon it. emphasizing the V-shape of the front. Thinner vertical tail-lamps were used. giving a more rakish look. The winged-V emblems used at the front of the fenders on other Cadillacs were added to the Eldorado front parking lamp lenses. Bright rocker panel trim. with front and rear extensions was used. There was also Eldorado block lettering at the lower front fender behind the wheel housing. A new electric sliding sunroof option was also available.
