429ci OHV V8 engine Single Carter AFB four-barrel carburetor 340bhp at 4,600 rpm Three-speed Turbo Hydra-Matic automatic transmission Independent front suspension with coil springs and rigid rear axle with leaf springs Four-wheel power-assisted drum brakes *Same ownership for close to 50 years *Great example of the 1960s elegance *Iconic Fleetwood design THE CADILLAC ELDORADO Another Bill Mitchell masterpiece, the all-new 1967 Eldorado introduced the sharp-edged styling motifs that Cadillac successfully returned to three decades later. The perfect long-hood/short deck proportions belie the Eldorado's 221-inch length. Under that massive hood is an equally massive 429 cubic inch, 340 hp V-8, used for only one year. GM's innovative front-wheel drive system, which pairs a classic Hydra-Matic TH400 transmission with a planetary gearbox, turned out to be sturdy enough to drive the 12,500 lb. GMC Motorhome of 1973-1978. Cadillac sold 17,930 Eldorado in 1967, three times more than any previous year. THE MOTORCAR OFFERED This Eldorado was purchased by the current owner's father in the early-70s and stayed in the same family until today being under his daughter's ownership. The car stayed in the same house until now which made it a Car Icon of the high-end residential area of Hancock Park in Los Angeles. Having sat for few years, the car just received the required service to take it back on the road, notably including a full carburetor rebuild and a new battery. Despite some paint flaws, the car appears to be rust-free and original. Old service stickers can still be found in the door which vouches for the low-usage and untouched condition of the car. From the Trim Plate we understand that the Red color of the body was a special order from the original buyer, which adds to the uniqueness of the car. As a basis for restoration or to be used as is, the car is ready for a new owner and a new life.
