The car’s black paint, is in good shape, with minor blemishes visible at close range. The car’s bodywork is straight, the engine bay is very tidy, the battery appears new and the car’s body-colored bumpers are in good, original order but the fog lights are not functional and some new emblems are included. Inside is a black leather interior. The front buckets and rear bench are in great shape and so is the matching carpet. A four-spoke, leather-wrapped steering wheel faces the driver while the instrument panel and inner door panels are in decent condition. The center console and leather shift lever plus a factory Delco-Bose AM/FM stereo with cassette deck completes the interior.” |

1997 Cadillac Eldorado Touring Vehicle Information VIN: 1G6ET1296VU604525 Stock: 200600297C Mileage: 87,206 Color: Black Trans: 4-Speed Automatic Engine: 4.6L V8 32V Title: Clear Interior: Black Video Description 1997 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible conversion
• Convertible conversion by Coachbuilders Limited • Coupe conversion; there were no factory Eldorado convertibles in 1997 • 4.6L Northstar DOHC 32-valve V-8 engine (code L37) with SMPI • 4T80-E electronic four-speed automatic transmission with a 3.71 final drive • Dark Adriatic Metallic exterior (code 39) and black leather interior • Automatic climate control, power steering, power disc brakes with anti-lock, cruise control, tilt steering column, power windows, power locks, power mirrors, power seats and power antenna • Stabilitrak, dual front airbags, leveling suspension, alloy wheels, Rainsense intermittent windshield wipers, fog lights and dual zone climate control
By the late 1990s, Cadillac’s Eldorado had seen many different iterations – rounded styling, square-edged and upright and everything in-between. This example was made in Cadillac’s Hamtramck factory in Detroit, Michigan and features General Motors’ Northstar V-8 engine.
As a Cadillac fan, you already know the factory didn"t make any droptops in 1997. Instead, the people at Coach Builders Limited created this for well-heeled clientele that were willing to pay a handsome premium over the luxurious Eldorado coupe price.
The convertible conversion was performed by Coachbuilders Limited (now Droptop Customs) in High Springs, Florida. Drop Top Customs was originally founded in 1976 as “Coachbuilders Limited,” has over 41 years of experience. All of their conversion projects are completed in-house, from the moment you drive in until the moment you drive away. Their facilities include complete metalworking, upholstery, painting and fiberglass equipment.
The car’s Dark Adriatic Metallic paint (code L37), is in good shape, with minor blemishes visible at close range. The car’s bodywork is straight, the engine bay is very tidy, the battery appears new and the car’s body-colored bumpers are in good, original order but the fog lights are inoperable.
The car rolls on whitewall radials, size 225/60R16 at every corner. Each one is mounted on a factory chrome alloy wheel. The tires and wheels are in good, original order.
Under the hood with counterbalanced struts is a 4.6L Northstar DOHC 32-valve V-8 engine (code L37) with sequential multi-port fuel injection. The motor is linked a 4T80-E electronically controlled, four-speed automatic transmission with a 3.71:1 final drive. Driver’s convenience features include automatic climate control, power steering, power disc brakes with anti-lock, cruise control, tilt steering column, power windows, power locks, power mirrors, dual zone climate control and power antenna.
Safety features include dual front airbags, a leveling suspension, Stabilitrak and Rainsense intermittent windshield wipers.
Inside is a black leather interior. The front buckets and rear bench are in great shape and so is the matching carpet. A four-spoke, leather-wrapped steering wheel faces the driver while the instrument panel and inner door panels are in decent condition. The center console and leather shift lever plus a factory Delco-Bose AM/FM stereo with cassette deck completes the interior.
In 1997, the Integrated Chassis Control System was added. It involved microprocessor integration of engine, traction control, Stabilitrak electronic stability control, steering, and adaptive continuously variable road sensing suspension (CVRSS), with the intent of improving responsiveness to driver input, performance, and overall safety.
Competition to this Eldorado in 1997 included Acura’s RL, Buick’s Riviera, Cadillac’s own Seville, Chrysler’s New Yorker and LHS, Infiniti’s Q45, Lexus’ SC400, Lincoln’s Mark VIII, Mercury’s Cougar, Oldsmobile’s Aurora and Toyota’s Avalon.
