1967 Cadillac Eldorado Coupe Grey FWD Automatic

1967 Cadillac Eldorado Description:

Now, for those of you who are connoisseurs of Cadillacs, my friends, I know what you are thinking, “This ain’t no ’67. It’s got to be a ’68with front fender corner signals.” Rest assured my astute compadre that it is indisputably a 1967 as indicated in the VIN number and dashboard. The dashboards were given a slight redesign for 1968. Why does it have front fender corner signals and trim elements that were introduced in 1968? I don’t know. However, I like to imagine that the original owner, Mr. Hansen, liked some of those elements when the ‘68 came out, so he had his dealership in Pennsylvania install them on his ‘67.It’s possible.Speaking of Mr. Zenon C.R. Hansen, he was the original owner of this car, delivered to him on April 20, 1967. Mr. Hansen, at the time of the purchase, was the CEO of Mack Trucks, Inc. He was elected to the Automotive Hall of Fame in 1983 being accredited with turning the Mack Trucks company around.THE BAD:It needs a new paint job, not horrible but there are spots where the paint has started to flake off. The car has been repainted sometime in the last 25 years. The automatic locks don’t work, neither does the cruise control. There is no major damage to the body, but there is a dent on the trunk and a dent on the front passenger fender that is hard to see on the photos. The heat is not working and a seam has come apart on the arm rest. Lastly, the power seat is not working. I did purchase a new motor for the seat and installed it, but haven’t had a chance to trouble shoot why it isn’t working with a new motor.THE GOOD:The car starts without a problem and runs very smooth. It has 92,000 original miles on it. Last year I had the carburetor rebuilt. The air conditioning still blows cold. All the electric windows work and the headlight covers are still in working order. The interior is in great shape; including the headliner, upholstery and dash. I have a few spare parts for the car including new sill plates. I have a copy of the build sheet that I obtained from GM that I would be happy to share with the buyer as well. It has a Bluetooth stereo in the glovebox that works great and allows for hands free phone calls.Overall this has been a really fun car, but I need to make room for something else. Would love to see it go to somebody that will appreciate it. Hagerty values this car at 23K, asking $19,000.
