1979 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz

Description

This 1979 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz is quite a unique machine. It's a well-preserved/presented survivor with some rare features - including a diesel V8 and a sunroof. It makes for the ultimate luxury classic Caddy that will have people talking at the car shows for far more than just its looks.

The Biarritz is pure elegance. That stainless steel roof panel is an amazing tribute to the 1957 Cadillac Eldorado Brougham, and it tells you just how much of a personal luxury vehicle this top-of-the-line coupe really is. The odometer is believed to reflect the actual mileage, and the well-kept originality you see all-around this car reinforces that feeling. The factory Cerulean Blue Firemist looks clean and retains a nice metallic pop when the sunlight hits it. Plus, the dark blue pinstriping and a blue vinyl half-roof coordinating so well with the paint that this Biarritz's full appearance feels is downright European. Then again, this Caddy also takes full advantage of classic American style. These coupes have just the right amount of brightwork as the chrome bumpers seem to almost connect with the rocker trim to encircle the lower part of this coupe in a mirror-like finish. And we know you've taken note of the Biarritz's exclusive bright accent piece that starts at the headlight and has an artful design as it runs across the body and up the roofline. Oh yes, this is detail-oriented elegance.

The interior demonstrates what personal luxury is all about. The plush blue leather seating is intact and rivals the best living rooms for comfort. And the full wood-like trim is a great-looking glossy contrast. Everybody has their own individual space separated by an armrest, and the front wheel drive layout means a flat floor and limo-worthy legroom. Everything you'd expect from Cadillac's flagship model comes in this coupe, including power seats, power locks, power steering, cruise control, tilt steering column, and original AM/FM/cassette premium sound system. There are power windows and a power moon roof, and so you can really open this Caddy up to the world without ever leaving the driver's seat. Plus, the automatic climate control is blowing cold with modern R134a, so this classic really delivers the features you're looking for even in a brand new car.

Under the hood is a 350 cubic-inch V8, but not necessarily the kind you were expecting. This is from the few years when diesel power was available to Cadillac. Since this is such a distinct setup, it's also nice that the motor is believed to be original to the car. The engine bay shows the signs of the right maintenance and an overall tidy presentation. So you'll be able to talk about this unique motor and show it off. Plus, the high torque nature of a diesel makes it nice for a big cruising Caddy. And a car like this was really made for the open road. You have all the right comfy driving features, like a three-speed automatic transmission, a fully-independent suspension, and four-wheel power disc brakes.

This is the premium Eldorado Biarritz that is outstandingly preserved and has some truly memorable features. So when something this distinct is also so affordable, you know you need to hurry to catch this deal. Call today!!!
