1984 Cadillac Eldorado Coupe


Up for Auction: SUPER LOW FAIR RESERVE !!!

A very nice 1984 Caddy Eldorado 2 dr coupe.
This car was originally sold here in Tucson and basically never
left unless it was for a road trip or 2. What you wont find on
the car is any rust on the car. Its your typical rust free Az car
with a solid body. The car was always parked in a garage or a
carport so the Az sun didnt get to it as badly as some cars.
Best we can tell, its still the original white paint which is showing
its age and its getting faded in areas. I think most of it could be
clay barred and brought back to look pretty nice if you wanted
to and buff it out with a good wax job and it could look even better.
We may try to do that this week with a local detailer we use.

Factory V8 car loaded like you would expect from a Caddy
Some back story about the car, the car was owned by a friend of
mines dad, he bought it new in 84 from the original owner and
drove it up till about 03, when it got parked for something smaller.
Around that time w/ aprox 127k on the car he basically parked 
the car when he bought a new car, so this car as essentially sat
under cover for the last 11 yrs with an empty gas tank. To get it
back on the road, we changed some of the fluids, dropped the
tank and put a new fuel pump and screen in (just to be safe), put
in some fresh gas and with a few cranks of the key, it fired right
up. It runs and drives like an older Caddy should. The tires look 
good but I know are pretty old.

DRIVETRAIN:  the original throttle body injected V8
motor runs and sounds good.
It idles nice and runs like it should. We where going to 
do more of a tune up on it, but its been running so well
Im leaving it alone. Nice and unmolested under the hood
its almost like a time capsule there. AC clicks on using the
climate control on the dash, but doesnt get that cool.
So at the very least it will need a charge.
The hood struts are worn out and dont hold up the hood anymore
by themselves. Again, an easy fix they are available all over
pretty cheap.

INTERIOR: All original blue velour interior shows minor wear 
and actually looks pretty awesome for its age. Think the only
seat that ever got used was the driver seat. All the electronics
seem to work and the gadgets on this car for 1981 are way ahead
of its time. Impressive for its age. The pics always make the car
look better in pics, but this car the is really clean inside too.
The steering column has the typical loose feel to it, typical of
most GMs from this ERA, generally its an easy fix, but you have
to remove the SW and get to the loose nuts down in the column
to tighten it up. 9x out of 10 thats usually the all it is in these
80s GM columns.


EXTERIOR: What looks to be like the original white paint, the body
is very straight and paint could be buffed out some to look nicer
too if you wanted to restore the car. Restoring this car wouldnt take
a whole lot or just drive it the way it is and enjoy it.
As is this car would be a nice daily driver (tires would be the 
first thing I would change on it). The stainless and chrome on this
car are in amazing shape for their age too. There is alot on 
the car from front to back from the factory.


SUSPENSION: all factory the best I can tell and Im sure some bushings
are old and shocks, things where replaced or fixed as needed.
Feels normal and solid like a Cadillac riding on a cloud :)
Smooth with no weird noises, and brakes probably need to be 
bled (from sitting) the car stops, but Ill bleed them this week.

SOME STUFF I KNOW IT NEEDS ARE: power antenna broken, some plastic
filler parts between the rear bumper and body brittle and broken
in a few areas, dr door simply wont open from the inside or outside.
Flip up part of the trunk lock cover broken, chrome trim around dr side
headlight bezel cracked & dr interior door panel showing some wear, 
and the trim on the steering wheel is peeling off.  Most of this stuff is
minor and easy fixes, but you may miss them in the pics so I wanted to 
mention them


Check out ALL the pics below ----->

it may take a full minute for them all to load if you have a
slow connection, so be patient AND looks for the extra schroll
bar on the right side.
Az gets maybe 12" a yr of rain and Az very dry climate.
more info AFTER the pics etc. There are 100 large pics.

Having as much as the original steel on a restored car these days
speaks volumes.

of surprises are hidden under new paint or thick undercoating.
People are flipping cars all the time when most of the jobs are
fast, for a quick buck and quality suffers.

Doing restoration on this type of project is less labor

Cadillac to add small sedan, crossover as part of major product blitz

Tue, Jan 13 2015

Cadillac will add a small sedan and a compact crossover to its lineup in the next several years as part of an ambitious product blitz that will remake its lineup. The sedan will slot below the ATS, which is currently Cadillac's smallest four-door car. It's scheduled to arrive in 2017, Cadillac president Johan de Nysschen told Autoblog at the Detroit Auto Show. The sedan will be followed late that year or in early 2018 by a compact crossover, which will be positioned below the SRX. The crucial redesign of the SRX – Cadillac's top seller – arrives in 2016. It will switch to the brand's new naming system and change to an "XT" prefix followed by a number. The naming scheme debuts on the CT6, which launches in late 2015 and will be positioned above the CTS and XTS sedans. Cadillac also wants to add another crossover that sits between the SRX and its flagship SUV, the Escalade, at some point. Further out, Cadillac's long-awaited Mercedes-Benz S-Class fighter could arrive around 2020, and it would serve as the flagship or "showcase of the brand," de Nysschen said. Cadillac is also looking to expand its powertrain portfolio and is contemplating a wide range of options, including hybrids, plug-in electric vehicles and diesel engines. The new cars and crossovers are part of a $12-billion investment in Cadillac, which de Nysschen described as "an unheard level of capital" from General Motors. In total, the brand will receive eight new products through 2020. "Our product offensive will provide the substance for our ambitions," he said. De Nysschen has set high goals – and made major changes – at Cadillac since he took over the 113-year-old luxury brand in September. The brand moves to a separate headquarters in New York this year, away from GM's base in Detroit, and it has switched advertising agencies in a bid to elevate its image. Cadillac's sales declined 6.5 percent in the United States in 2014 to 170,750 units, and it has the smallest volume of GM's four brands. "Here in the US we continue to make progress, but we also face challenges," de Nysschen said. He added the brand's lineup "clearly limits our growth opportunities in the US market." Still, de Nysschen is taking the long view for Cadillac, noting it took years to turn around Audi, where he was president of its US operations for eight years. Cadillac's global sales have inched up five percent globally this year, spurred by a 47-percent surge in China.

Reuss says GM diesel plans are still on pace

Fri, Oct 16 2015

General Motors is not going to let Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal ruin its plans for a new line of efficient, torquey oil-burners, the company's Executive Vice President Mark Reuss said at a recent press event. "No way," Reuss responded when asked about cancelling the upcoming diesel-powered Chevrolet Cruze and other vehicles. "The Cruze Diesel is too good not to do it." Slated for 2017, the compact is just the latest member of a diesel offensive that initially kicked off with the first Cruze Diesel and most recently saw the introduction of the oil-burning Chevy Colorado and GMC Canyon. Reuss also reassured those in attendance that there was "no delay" in development of Cadillac's diesel lineup. Cadillac is working on a line of four- and six-cylinder turbodiesels for Europe. They'd make their way into the US market, too, eventually. "It's a question of timing," Reuss said, according to Car and Driver. Volkswagen's diesel emissions scandal has caused automakers across the globe to at least reanalyze their diesel strategy. Jaguar Land Rover, which is preparing several diesel-powered models for the US market, went on record late last month to reaffirm its commitment to diesel.
