1972 CADILLAC ELDORADO Cabriolet 500 CI -... - Lot 63 - Osenat

1972 CADILLAC ELDORADO Cabriolet 500 CI - No reserve - Series: 61675Q406875 - Endearing configuration - Largest V8 made by GM - French registration - No reserve In 1971, Cadillac launched its new Eldorado, a revolutionary new model with front-wheel drive. Still powered by two V8s, the top of the range was assured by the monstrous 8.2-liter 500CI engine. In 1972, a slight restyling was carried out, and the 8.2-liter engine was revised to develop 230 horsepower, more than sufficient for the car's capabilities. The car we're presenting here was imported to France in the 1980s, and was used for over 20 years by a Parisian enthusiast. In 2005, he sold it to an enthusiast in the Loiret region, who has kept it ever since. Today, this Cadillac is in fair condition, although it does have a valid technical inspection, the car's cooling needs to be reviewed, as does the operation of the electric soft top. As for the bodywork, although free from corrosion, it shows the traces of its Parisian life, being rubbed in certain places. 1972 CADILLAC ELDORADO Cabriolet 500 CI -No reserve - Series : 61675Q406875 - Endearing configuration - The biggest V8 made by GM - French registration -No reserve In 1971, Cadillac launched its new Eldorado, a major revolution in that it became a front-wheel drive car for this new vintage.
