One of the purposes of studying history is to find iconic
symbols that represent a certain period of that moment in history. We all know that after World War II,
Americans were very proud and decided to flaunt it in their automotive
design. As the years went on the
cars got bigger, more elaborate, with more accessories and special colors. The 1978 Cadillac was probably the last
in the series of post-war design that represent that momentum.
Keep in mind that during the late 1970s, incomes were high,
taxes were low and the automotive manufacturers could afford to put in the
excesses that were desirable and expected and that the wealthy could afford. Just look to the interior of this car
for sale, there is no way it could be more posh and elaborate. It is made with the finest leather with
the goal of having the most comfortable car seats ever put into a car. Even though these cars were expensive for
a traveling salesman, in the 1970s many used these cars because they could
drive for 12-14 hours a day and still be somewhat refreshed after driving all
day. There is no question that the
1978 Cadillac Eldorado is one of the most comfortable cross country American
cars ever produced.
The car that you see before you is a car that has always
been kept by the most fastidious owners and the car has absolutely minimum
wear. While the pictures make the
car look like it is brand new, of course there is some slight wear here and
there but as you can see it is not even picked up by the camera.
So this is the car that made the two-tone brown color scheme
the trend for the next five or six years on all cars from Detroit and also is
the color scheme of the car used for the 1978 Cadillac Eldorado sales brochure.
Everybody loved the subtleties’ of
the colors and this is by far the favorite color scheme for the 1978 Cadillac
Eldorado.
Most car collectors love a big, long hood and certainly the
1978 Cadillac Eldorado used that formula for its great success. You can drive this car over the
roughest road and think you are on a newly resurfaced highway, that is how
smooth these huge cars roll out the bumps.
We know that Cadillac Eldorados of all years are especially
popular in Australia, New Zealand and Sweden and we do require that foreign
bidders get permission a head of time to bid but we do work with all out of
country buyers to make a smooth transaction.
Today many of the options on this car were just coming out
on the luxury cars of the 1970s; such as electronic level control,
thermostatically controlled air conditioning, rear window defoggers, four wheel
disc brakes and Twilight Sentinel along with a security alarm system, tilt
telescopic steering wheel, sunroof and CB radio just to name a few.
This car also includes new tires, new battery, owner and
shop manual along with a CB manual (during the 1970s having a CB radio was as
close to a cell phone as you could get).
To top all this off the original car has only 33,425
original miles.

Saturn Vue ignition switch leads to new group of GM recalls totaling 312k
Fri, 08 Aug 2014General Motors has another spate of recalls to announce. This time they cover 312,280 vehicles worldwide, including 269,041 of in the US, in a total of six campaigns. In 2014, the automaker has recalled 29,079,765 vehicles worldwide, with 25,754,356 of those in the US.
The largest among them covers 215,243 units of the Saturn Vue from 2002-2004 model years worldwide, 202,115 in the US. It's possible for the for the key to be removed even when the ignition isn't in the OFF position. The company knows of two crashes and one injury caused by this problem. Dealers are checking the parts and replacing the ignition cylinder and key set, if necessary.
Next is 72,826 models worldwide (48,059 vehicles in the US) of the 2013 Cadillac ATS four-door sedan, 2013 Buick Encore and 2013 Chevy Trax in Canada. It's possible that the for lap belt pretensioner to retract but not to lock, which could increase occupant movement during a crash. Both front, outboard lap belt pretensioners are being replaced, and a stop-sale is in effect on unsold models until the problem is repaired. There are no known crashes or injuries, though.
Cadillac CTS-V spotted with big exhaust, new grille?
Thu, 20 Feb 2014If you thought Cadillac was content to leave its twin-turbocharged Vsport as the range-topping CTS, think again. Behold, our first good glimpse at the next-generation Cadillac CTS-V sedan, sporting more aggressive styling (somewhere under there), meaty quad-exhaust pipes, and what very well could be a new face for the V-badged Caddies.
Creating an all-new grille design seems like an awful lot of work just for a prototype, so it's very possible that the vertical-bar treatment you see here could make its way into production. Our spy photographers have pointed out that they've seen this same sort of grille treatment on prototypes for the smaller ATS-V sedan, and we've heard V-series models may soon have greater differentiation from the standard vehicles that sired them - that seems especially necessary if Cadillac insists on expanding this whole Vsport range.
Regardless of how its front end looks, the CTS-V ought to be a real monster. Industry sources say we can expect to see a supercharged version of General Motors' 6.2-liter V8 under the Caddy's hood, and considering the current car already makes 556 horsepower and 551 pound-feet of torque, we wouldn't be surprised to see a decent increase in both of those numbers. After all, one of the CTS-V's main competitors, the Mercedes-Benz E63 AMG, is currently putting out 550 hp and 590 lb-ft of torque. Could this mean a 600-hp Cadillac is on the horizon?
Cadillac shows dealers convertible rendering
Tue, 28 Oct 2014Cadillac is getting serious about revitalizing and expanding its lineup, and to that end, a new report claims that brand boss Johan de Nysschen has been showing plans for several new models to the marque's dealer body - among them, a new convertible.
The droptop which Cadillac reportedly showed its dealers in sketch form, would be based on the same platform as the ATS and CTS, those it's unclear to which (if either) of those model lines the new convertible would be added, or whether the design features a canvas or folding hardtop roof. One way or another, it would be the first time Cadillac would offer a convertible since the Corvette-based XLR roadster was discontinued more than five years ago.
Quoting an unnamed brand spokesperson, Cadillac would "like to introduce an open car to the portfolio at some point," however, "it's not likely to be one of the near-term portfolio additions."
