Vehicle Description 1978 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Car History We have a 1978 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Coupe here at Adventure Classics that is a stunning Survivor car that is an unrestored original car.
It has the original paint and interior with only 33,230 original miles on it.
In 1978, Edward C.
Kennard, General Manager of the Cadillac Motor Division and Vice President of General Motors, offered a special edition Biarritz package in five colors and easily recognized by its unique, padded vinyl roof, wide body moldings, opera lamps, distinctive Biarritz script, special accent stripes, color coordinated wheel disks and plush interior appointments with 50/50 pillow type leather seating.
It had a list price of over $13,000 when appropriately optioned.
Engine & Drivetrain 1978 was the last year for the large, front-wheel drive Eldorado and was truly the end of an iconic automotive era, when bigger was always better.
The engine is a cast iron block and head 7.
0 litre 16-valve, 425 CID V8 engine equipped with a Rochester 4-bbl downdraft Quadrajet carburetor.
This engine produced 180 hp @ 4,000 rpm with 320 ft-lbs of torque @ 2,000 rpm.
It uses GM's Turbo Hydra-Matic THM-425 3-speed automatic transmission driving the front wheels.
The engine compartment also maintains the original factory appearance and is immaculate.
It is like brand new with components only replaced or repaired as needed and the air conditioning blows cold.
Interior The beautiful Desirable Biarritz package deluxe pillow seat interior of bronze leather twin bucket seats is completely original including the factory plush tan carpet.
The trunk area is complete with the space-saving spare, jack, tools and felt-style liners.
No description here will tell you how nice this interior really is, but I will sum it up in one word.
exquisite! This Eldorado is loaded with factory options.
We love the factory AM/FM 8-track tape, signature interior features which include sumptuous button-tufted contoured pillow-style seating with glove-soft leather and 50/50 dual comfort front seats.
Exterior Our survivor Cadillac retains the original paint in what has to be the most desirable color combinations or Ruidoso Saddle with Antique Dark Saddle interior trim offered for the 1978 model, and for 1978, the Biarritz option added a convertible-like padded vinyl top, unique script, body chrome moldings, and accent stripes.
The exclusive Cabriolet Roof is tailored in a richly textured elk grain vinyl with French seams.
The heavy padding is designed to change the lines of the car and it changes the shape and size of the rear quarter windows.
It has a stylish rear window treatment.
Special accent striping, stainless-steel moldings, color-keyed wheel discs with bright chrome Cadillac factory hub caps and white wall tires, and Biarritz scripts affixed to the rear sail panels distinctly mark it as a Cadillac special edition.
The Custom Biarritz is unique, even among other Cadillacs.
Conclusion The 1978 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Coupe time capsule car here at Adventure Classics is extraordinarily well cared for and still maintains the factory showroom appearance.
It is simply an investment grade automobile as the photos do not do justice to what it really looks like.
Preserved Cadillacs in this condition simply do not come to the market very often.
Here is your opportunity to own one of the finest 1978 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz's in the country.
