You are about to see one of the nicest, original unrestored Eldorado Convertibles in existence.

The car had one owner a Mrs. Susan Skankus who received this Eldorado as a gift for a late birthday present on July 4, 1972. Mrs. Stankus babied this car and it has never seen rain or snow. She drove it a total of 79,000 miles by 1979. At that point the car was put away in the garage and only received use a few times a summer until a few years ago when she unfortunately passed away in 2009. Her husband sent the car to Cadillac at that point for a full service ($5,000) and the car was once again ready to go. The car has always been started regurally and never sat for any extended period of time. The car is completely and utterly rust free and in impeccable condition with not one door ding or thin spot in the paint. For the paint being as old as it is, its almost blemish free! The three imperfections in the paint are on each side where the parade boot would be installed and are too minute to photograph. The third blemish is a touched up 2" long minute scratch on the bottom of the passenger side quarter panel that would not photograph. The chrome is as close to being flawless as it can possibly be for 1972 vintage, with no dents, dings or pits.

The interior is impeccable and completely original. The seats look like they have never been sat in. The steering wheel looks like it was never touched. The carpet is stain free. The only blemish you can find on the interior is a tiny crack in the drivers side door panel too shallow to see and about 1" in length. All lights, gauges, signals, horn, air conditioning work as it should. The car drives perfectly flat as a pancake and starts on the first flick of the original set of keys.

The top is power and the top is brand new, the original top has some minor shrinkage issues and a top of the line OEM replacement was used with a glass rear window.

In short, this car has no excuses and makes no excuses. It does not smoke or use oil, the trans shifts great and the car drives like it is on a cloud.

I encourage local inspection and it should be known that the car is for sale locally and this auction can and will be ended in the event of a local sale.

The first person that sees and drives this car will buy it...it's that nice that words, pictures or video could not express.
