From 1953 to 2002, the Eldorado represented the pinnacle of luxury in Cadillac's inimitable style. Named after the mythical golden city of Lost Gold or 'El Dorado,' you can imagine what Cadillac's positioning strategy was. The fourth generation is arguably the most prolific, but later generation vehicles, such as this ninth-generation 1974 Cadillac Eldorado, continued to be formidable land yachts that wafted their lucky owners in peaceful comfort under V8 power. This car features just 38,155 miles on the clock and awaits its next lucky owner.
The red paint job, white-striped tires, chrome hubcaps, and dainty 'Eldorado' script all embody the spirit this 1974 Cadillac Eldorado boasts in spades. It's a convertible, too, with a powered tan convertible top. The front features quad headlamps with chrome surrounds, a quintessential Seventies icon. Moving to the rear, you'll notice the long and flowing trunk boasting a power trunk release. By now, you'll probably glean that the average Eldorado owner didn't want to expend energy on mundane tasks. With the top dropped, you really appreciate how long this car is; for those interested, it measures just over 224 inches from tip to tail. Inside, you'll be treated to a white leather-trimmed interior with plush seats for four adults and plenty of wood trim. Creature comforts include power-adjustable seats, power windows, power mirrors, and climate control. We also observe an 8-track AM/FM stereo with 'Captain & Tennille's Greatest Hits' that's reportedly functional, so you can enjoy a period rendition of 'Do That To Me One More Time' if that's your thing. For those seeking a bit more modernity, the current owner reports that an aftermarket Bluetooth-capable head unit is also in place.
A V8 powers this 1974 Cadillac Eldorado, and it's a monstrous 500ci unit. However, the Malaise Era had taken a firm grip over the American automobile market by 1974. This means that the V8's once-potent output was strangled to a mere 205 horsepower. Torque stood at a respectable 380lb-ft at just 2,400rpm, enabling you to keep up with the traffic as the 3-speed automatic transmission sent the power to the front wheels. Yes, this car is front-wheel-drive, and boasts power front disc brakes to help bring all that mass to a halt.

Cadillac’s Eldorado was born in 1952 as a personal luxury car. Since then, it sat at or near the top of Caddy’s hierarchy and was produced until 2002 across twelve generations. Today, it’s the quintessential classic Cadillac, and even Generation Alpha might have heard of it from their grandparents or parents. Yes, these cars were aspirational to many hard-working Americans who, one day, envisioned themselves treating their family to an Eldorado. Today, we have a 1974 Cadillac Eldorado for sale from Louisville, Kentucky. This all-original car comes with a super massive V8 under the hood and just 71,471 miles under its belt. So, it’s an excellent buy for a discerning collector to own and, most importantly, drive. After all, these cars love the open road.
Cadillac’s most popular model has got to be the Eldorado. Introduced in 1952, it enjoyed a fantastic fifty-year production run across twelve generations. The name Eldorado is inspired, as you may guess, by the Spanish term, and means ‘The Gilded One’. It’s also based on the Colombian lost city of Gold, namely El Dorado. With such nomenclature, you’d expect the Eldorado to be something, and those who have sampled one wholeheartedly agree that it could be the defining feature of Cadillac’s brand proposition. Today’s 1984 Cadillac Eldorado comes from Greensboro, North Carolina and has covered under 51,000 miles to date. It’s a fine tenth generation example, and a perfect embodiment of the Eighties as a result.
This fully restored 1985 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz is a prime example of luxury and elegance from the pinnacle of 1980s American automotive design. With only 53,000 original miles, this stunning coupe offers both pristine condition and authenticity. Powered by Cadillac’s refined 4.1L V8 engine and finished in an eye-catching red exterior over an equally luxurious red interior, it effortlessly blends vintage charm with modern touches such as Bluetooth radio connectivity.
The Cadillac de Ville series is a full-size luxury car from Cadillac, made between 1958 and 2005 across eight generations. The term de Ville means “of the town”, indicating that Cadillac intended the model to become the talk of the town, literally. Offered in sedan, coupe and convertible forms, early generations are renowned for their flamboyant styling. Take this second generation 1963 Cadillac Coupe de Ville as a prime example. With a 390 under the hood and a lovely Nevada Silver paint job, this machine awaits a new owner in Santa Rosa, California. Grab it while you can because cars like this don’t stay on the market for long.
Based on a Corvette although you’d never guess by merely looking at it, the Cadillac XLR was a two-door luxury grand tourer made between 2003 and 2009. It came with a Northstar V8 under the hood, a power-retractable roof, an instrument cluster designed Bulgari, and all the luxury trappings you’d expect for something from Cadillac. While sales were modest, with just over 15,400 units sold during its time, the XLR is now becoming a future classic of sorts. It’s modern enough to drive in 2025, yet has that sort of lasting aura that ensures it will be around even in two or three decades time if maintained correctly. So, we’ve got a 2007 Cadillac XLR-V for sale from Andalusia, Alabama if you feel that an XLR belongs in your life. This particular car is particularly appealing because of its mileage of just 24,000!
Cadillac’s full-size luxury sedan for twenty years, the Fleetwood served as the pinnacle offering from this iconic American luxury automaker between 1976 and 1996. The actual origins of Fleetwood are hazy, as it was used as a trim line on other Cadillacs since 1935, since Fleetwood was actually a coachbuilder who built bodies for automakers, most notably, Cadillac. The first proper Fleetwood model was actually front-wheel drive, with the second generation switching to rear-wheel drive. However, the Fleetwood Brougham remained rear-wheel drive, as is this 1986 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham from Ford Collins, Colorado. The car has got a 307 under the hood, and just over 25,000 miles on the clock.
Ford’s Torino is a midsize car that was sold between 1968 and 1976. It also dabbled in the muscle car segment, with a prime example being this first-generation 1969 Ford Torino Cobra Jet. For buyers who wanted something tamer, there was a host of straight six or V8 powerplants, but the ultimate was the massive 428ci Cobra Jet V8. That’s what this Thousand Palms-based car offers, along with a Marti Report and just 21,000 miles on the clock. In fact, 1969 Cobras like this one are quite desirable due to their rarity since many Torino’s didn’t survive due to a variety of reasons. Perhaps they weren’t quite seen as preservation candidates way back then. Now, a car like this one isn’t a common occurrence, so if you wish to own this Cobra, contact us right now.
Chevy’s second-generation or C2 Corvette has got to be the one with the shortest production run! It was made between 1963 and 1967, and just under 118,000 units were produced during this time. However, the C2 brought us many Corvette features such as pop-up headlamps, only V8s under the hood, and the Sting Ray badge. That’s why getting your hands on a C2 is a smart idea, albeit not one of the easiest. Happily, we have this 1964 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray Convertible for sale from Newtown, Pennsylvania. The car has just 5,764 miles on it and looks fabulous!
Falcon is one of Ford’s best-known nameplates, because its been used for cars in North America, Australia and Argentina. Today’s 1964 Ford Falcon Sprint Convertible comes from the North American line-up and is a second-generation example. With a healthy 119,104 miles on the clock, this fine Ford hails from Chula Vista, California and is a nice, sunny drop-top too. It’s got a 289 paired with a four-speeder, and some fetching aftermarket wheels as well. And that’s before we get to its rather nautical color! In short, this is the perfect first classic for someone looking to try out the American cars of the Sixties, but if you need more convincing before calling us, read on.
