Description of 1972 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz

Medical condition (not kidding) requires sale. No reserve. Fair starting price because it needs to move. I'm not going to get back what I have in it - oh well. Lemons, lemonade, and all that. I've also listed a Mercedes E320 on eBay. Both must go.
I purchased this Eldorado only a few months ago. Diagnosis just a few weeks ago. Car was shipped in on a truck just as it sits now. I changed the fluids and drove it about 100 miles - that's it. Sad in ways. None of the work that you see done on it is of my doing. Previous owner obviously spent a lot which is why I bought it. What has been finished is nice. I would keep it, but as said, I've had a med diagnosis and need cash. Sad about it, but it will make someone a great car.
Lots of miles, but lots of work already done on it too.
Very very nice paint work, hard fiberglass boot (factory), plus soft boot. NOT the original color. Blue Biarritz interior (dual front power, pillowed seats) obviously taken from a later coupe - in very good condition. Engine shows signs of being rebuilt, as does trans. Very nice (and expensive) aluminum multi-core radiator and other serious work were the indications why I bought it in the first place.
A/C works. Cruise does not. I've had it up to 75 on the highway - runs well - no weird vibrations.
Body and mechanicals are pretty much sorted - but some work clearly remains yet to be done (i.e. cruise). Interior still needs some work (i.e. dash cracks, steering column trim), gaskets, and other odds and ends.
Looks great from 10 feet, a worthy car to buy and tweak.
Fully driveable. Described accurately. Value is there up to about $8-10K as a base for a solid nice condition driver and parade car. Sold as is, where is.
Get your ducks in a row before bidding. $500 deposit required within 24 hours of auction close. Balance via cash (in person), wire transfer, or official check drawn on major US bank via FedEx within 7 calendar days of auction end. Once funds have cleared I will either hand you (in person) or FedEx overnight the title and bill of sale. You are responsible to pick up the car or have it transported with 2 weeks after payment. After that I charge $150 / month or portion for storage - as that's what it costs me.
