Cadillac’s Eldorado model was introduced in 1952 as the brand’s entrant into the personal luxury car segment. Twelve generations were produced during a fifty-year production run that ended in 2002. Whilst the Eldorado was a rear-wheel-drive vehicle from inception, 1967 was a watershed year that saw drive sent to the front wheels, a trait that stayed all the way until the end. Named after the Spanish words for ‘the gilded one, here’s a 1985 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible from the tenth generation up for sale. It’s a first-owner car that’s got just 2,500 miles on it, making this Florida-based, garage-kept car not only a great classic but a savvy future investment too. Receipts for all work done on it are provided with the sale.
Whilst the tenth generation of the Eldorado was a rebadged Buick Riviera / Oldsmobile Toronado, this didn’t stop it from setting a sales record in 1984 of 77,806 units, which amounted to over a quarter of Cadillac sales that year. This 1985 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible wears a clean white paint job that’s reportedly in good shape, and sports a matching white convertible top, with convertible top boot included in the sale. It’s got a set of lovely wire-spoke wheels to match the Grand Touring ethos, and the spare wheel is mounted at the rear, Continental-style. All brightwork looks to be present and correct in good condition as well. The interior is also white with lashings of wood trim and offers seating for four occupants on plush upholstered leather seats. Reportedly in good shape, the original fittings appear to be present, including the power windows, electronic gauge cluster, and electronic climate control. A Sony radio/CD head unit from a slightly later era constitutes the musical options on offer.
The tenth generation Eldorado came with a choice of V6 and V8 engines that ranged from 4.1L to 6.0L. 1982 saw the introduction of a new 4.1L “High Technology” V8 which is what this 1985 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible is endowed with. This engine put out 125hp to the front wheels via a four-speed automatic transmission with electronic overdrive, enabling a top speed of 106mph when new. Engine tune-up work has reportedly been recently conducted on this car.

The Cadillac Eldorado is a well-known luxury car from renowned American automaker Cadillac. In fact, the brand itself has become the representation of American luxury vehicles. When it debuted in 1952, the Eldorado was a full-size luxury car, and continued for fifty years, across twelve generations. With its sizable dimensions, comfortable interior and the latest technological innovations of the time, it’s no surprise that the Eldorado was an aspirational item for many. So, you can imagine how the first owner of this ninth generation 1975 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible must have felt when they went to receive their brand-new Cadillac. Now, the car has done 87,000 miles, and comes to you with a few refurbishments to keep it running at its peak. So why not acquire this quintessential Seventies Land Yacht as your next (or first) classic car?
Manufactured by Cadillac, the Eldorado spanned over twelve generations from 1952 to 2002. It was marketed as at or near the top of the Cadillac lineup, with the first generation Eldorado Brougham models being the most expensive models offered by Cadillac. However, the Eldorado was radically redesigned for 1967 as a front wheel drive hardtop coupe like the one we have for sale today in Ong, Nebraska, clocking a mere 27,000 miles on the odometer. It became Cadillac’s entry in the burgeoning personal luxury car market, sharing the E-body with the second generation Buick Riviera and the first generation Oldsmobile Toronado. When it comes to our featured car, it's reported that all servicing and maintenance has been kept up to date with a brand new set of white wall tires on this 1967 Cadillac Eldorado while also being kept mostly original apart from a few minor modifications such as the new Holley Sniper fuel injection system and the front headlights having received an electric conversion.
Creativity and style are the perfect recipe for standing out, and no one does this better than a classic American motor. Packed with personality and style, cars like this 1968 Cadillac Eldorado make for machines that make their custodian feel special. Get behind the wheel of this classic cruiser, stand out from the crowd, and cruise in style on your weekend drives.
Late 50s Chevys and mid 60s Cadillacs have always been popular candidates for restomod projects. However, not all of them are tastefully done like this fully restored 1965 Cadillac de Ville convertible restomod. 1965 was the first model year for the 3rd generation De Ville. It retained the same wheelbase as its predecessor, but the frame was a new perimeter frame (rather than the old X frame). The horizontal headlamp arrangement that had been standard since the late 50s was dropped in favor of a vertical arrangement, which also resulted in a wider grille. Gone were the softer lines of the old car, replaced by a sharper, more boxy design. The tailfins that had started shrinking since 1960 were now lower and slanted slightly downwards rather than slightly upwards. The new straight lines in its design make this car just as good looking with the top down as it does with the top up.
Cadillac is well-known for producing some of the most opulent and prominent full-size luxury cars of the ’50s and ’60s. These quintessentially American machines were instrumental in bringing about the term Land Yacht. The Series 62 nameplate was made between 1940 and 1962 across seven generations. Yes, in those days, model cycles were quite short, sometimes as short as two years. This 1959 Cadillac Series 62 Sedan comes from the seventh generation of the Series 62, which was made only for 1959 and 1960 before the de Ville took over. With 98,000 miles on the odometer, this car has been fully restored and sports a fresh coat of paint as well. Hence, it’s a great classic car and a symbol of American automobilia to own and drive.
Among those who enjoy driving about in good-looking cars, there is a small group who prefer the look of a mundane car with a classic historic flare. If that is your cup of tea, this 1993 Cadillac Allante is an excellent choice for you. While it blends well with day-to-day traffic, it boasts a stately personality. After all, it is a Cadillac. It was marketed as a two-seater luxury roadster, so it looks even classy with its top down. The Allante model saw a seven-year production run and the bodies were built in Italy by iconic coachbuilder Pininfarina. Our subject example only has 65,000 miles on its clock and is currently residing in Florida. Its owner claims that it comes with 3 keys and all the service is up to date.
