The 1969 Cadillac Eldorado was restyled without hidden headlights with new dual headlights and the previous years razor thin taillights were replaced by larger lenses. Other changes were minor in nature. One of the most interesting cars of the late sixties and essentially Cadillac's heavily re-engineered version of Oldsmobile front wheel drive Toronado. An exceptional road machine considering it's size with outstanding handling and impressive acceleration. Drive one like this particular example and you will see why - its hard to believe that this car was built over 45 years ago! These cars bristled with the latest in modern appointments and had few rivals in the luxury coupe market and were purchased only by the very privileged elite.
The all new 472/375HP V8 engine with 525 foot pounds of torque was introduced in 1968, it was the biggest and smoothest engine built by Cadillac to date and it proved unsurpassed in the industry as the largest engine ever put in a production passenger motor car and provided both sparkling acceleration, yet also quiet and effortless highway cruising, almost like having two engines!
This particular example was originally ordered new at the 'Utter Motor Company', the long time Cadillac dealership of Spokane, WA and sold to its original WA state owner in 1969 and who owned the car until recently when it was sold with a reportedly original 20K miles. The car oozes pride of ownership with the the floor boards, trunk and all the typical rust-prone areas completely original, solid and rust-free and the car has absolutely no signs of any accidents and seemingly mostly all original paint - obviously an always cherished 'Garage Queen' since new.
The 472/375HP 4 barrel V8 engine is extremely strong and powerful and sounds absolutely magnificent and this particular car drives absolutely magnificently - must be driven to be believed - does not miss a beat and purrs like a kitten - drives straight as an arrow with no strange road wobbles, shakes or rattles - a truly remarkable daily driver that still drives as it must have the day it left the showroom floor in Spokane, WA in 1969! The transmission shifts smoothly through the gears and the car is an absolute pleasure to drive! The car has always obviously always been well maintained and all the options work as they should including all the power options, the power windows, power seats and the factory air conditioning! The car boasts its original spare wheel and jack in the truck!
This is an extraordinarily rare opportunity to own a great daily driving example of a mostly completely original 1969 Cadillac Eldorado 2 Dr Hardtop Coupe showing pride of ownership throughout in great driving and looking condition with almost every possible factory available option installed and with believed to be only 20K original miles!
