Cadillac Eldorado | 1978
Highlights:
– 7.0-liter V8 engine
– Automatic transmission
– Two-tone exterior paint

The 1978 Cadillac Eldorado is an American icon from a time when bigger, more powerful, and more luxurious was the standard of prestige. Beneath the long hood lies an impressive 7.0-liter V8 engine, paired with front-wheel drive – a technical rarity in this class at the time. The Eldorado from this model year is part of the final generation before the downsizing era and is renowned for its unmatched comfort and commanding road presence. A stunning piece of Cadillac heritage.
The exterior features a two-tone paint finish in beige with a brown vinyl roof, perfectly matched to the classically styled wire wheel covers and whitewall tires. The imposing front end, chrome bumper, and bold grille emphasize the car’s luxurious character. Inside, you’re welcomed by a leather interior in dark brown and cream, accented with wood trim and thick carpeting. The wide, sofa-like front seats and vintage control layout instantly transport you to 1970s America. The warm color palette of the interior complements the exterior beautifully – stylish, grand, and timeless. Both the paintwork and interior show signs of use.
