Description: About this vehicle Up for sale is this beautiful 1973 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible Indianapolis 500 Pace Car Edition. HD walk-around video: https://youtu.be/d4Q4rGQH3-c Only 500 were made of this pace car and even less around today. so it's an extremely select few people who can say they have owned this iconic car. 500cu in v8 engine that runs great! My family has had this car for around 8 years and has been garage kept. This cars previous owner loved and cherished this vehicle, he loved take this car to car shows and it was his baby as it was ours as well. It is white exterior and all red interior, I've been told its the model the Shriners use as their parade car. This car was vinyl wrapped almost immediately after purchasing it, it was used as a parade car and would be parked in front of the store we owned at special occasions or used to go get ice cream etc. You can remove the vinyl or simply cover the wording with vinyl pieces as the graphics are really fun and draw a lot of attention driving around. Everyone honks and takes pictures and waves as you pass by, you always feel like your in a parade without even being in one. I would estimate we have put less than 250 miles on it each year since purchasing it. With only 112k miles the engine runs strong! The vinyl seats were reupholstered around a year ago and have probably only been sat in a handful of times We paid to have a really nice sound system added to the Cadillac and it really makes this car a dream to ride around in and blast music as your driving in the parade or around town! The sound system cost a little over 5k for parts and labor, they used ultra premium speakers such as (6) alpine type r speakers in the cabin. Two in the front in the custom head unit console, 2 in the custom box in the floor middle of the back seat, and 2 near the side panels in the back seat pointing back at the front for a full sound. It also has a custom subwoofer setup with 2 huge high quality JL audio 10in subwoofers for a nice tight and punchy bass that really makes the music shine. Equipped with 2 JL Audio amplifiers, a 6 channel 600w for the front speakers and a 1000w premium JL Audio sub amplifier along with a BOSS 2.0 farad power capacitor. Head unit is a pioneer, with radio tuner, usb connection and AUX connection. My phone no longer has a AUX port so I use a AUX to usb-c cable and it works like a dream. Bluetooth was not an option on this head unit, but a simple $20 bluetooth adapter will make it be bluetooth compatible if that is important to you Has a good bit of the vehicle dealer candy such as: maintenance schedule pamphlet, ECS information card, owners manual, and 1973 salesman's merchandising guide (extremely rare book with dealers fabric and vinyl swatches and all options etc. For the showroom salesmen to refer to) Brand new items have been installed recently including: -New battery less than a month old with easy to use kill switch lever for conserving the battery when not in use, making it harder to hot wire, or doing electrical repairs without going through the frustrating process getting tools out to remove terminal from the battery post every time -vinyl seats reupholstered -new air filter -new coolant reservoir overflow -went around and replaced any light I noticed out with brand new bulbs so all lights should be in good shape Issues to fix: *since taking this video of the car running the carbonator is acting up and wont work correctly when i went to do my latest monthly crank on the car to run it a little to make sure everything stays healthy. I've reduced the sale price $1,000 to give you plenty of room to compensate for fixing this issue with new parts or your time to repair. I'm considering getting a mobile mechanic to come and look at fixing the carb and If so the car will be put back at the old price once fixed* If you also don't want to deal with this issue i can have this issue fixed for you at the regular retail price -Ac has never been looked at to see if it will work, doesn't currently seem to do anything when turning the air on. We've always driven it In nice weather only so it hasn't ever been an issue for us. -Cracked vinyl on dash, door arm rests, sun visor - After seats were reupholstered and reinstalled they didn't hook the plugs back in for the electronic seat controls -Carpet on door panels pulling away -stop engine temp light on dash. Light turns on when door is opened even when cold and not running. Temperature on radiator doesn't run hot so it seems like it's a bad temp sensor stuck on ground or that wire is touching some metal and sending a Grounding signal. It's a pretty "dumb" sensor so it can easily be triggered by a bad ground etc. Doesn't effect anything, only a quality of life fix -Fuel gauge not working -Old gas line has recently developed a small intermittent drip leak near the back probably a vinyl line that will need to be repaired or most likely replaced. -Rearview mirror will come with the car but needs to be reattached as it has become detached -Driver and passenger windshields roll up and down as normal, back windshields need to be adjusted as they need help going up and down by pulling them a bit up or down to help the motor out or are possibly misaligned -1 hubcap is damaged and off the car, replacements are not terribly expensive or you can repair the damaged one -Weather seals need to be replaced if you plan to drive in the rain (we only used it on nice days with the top down so it never saw rain with us as it was covered in the climate controlled garage and we almost never put the top up as its a lot more fun to drive with the top down) -Clock doesn't appear to be working -brakes need work, has a little bit of stopping power but not much, seems like the brake booster is bad or needs maintenance as its pretty hard when pushing down. Fluid was dark and needed to be changed when I looked at it, so it could just need the brake fluid flushed and replaced. Was stopping fine a little while back so I don't think it's a major issue -Cut on the side wall of 1 tire will need to be replaced as well as brakes fixed before driving on the road would be safe -Convertible top was partially working when we first got it, you would have to help it get going but now seems to be in need of adjustment as I can hear the motor working to lift the top but isn't lifting. I'm not sure if it mechanical or hydraulic but could be a simple fix. The top itself has 3 rips, 2 small and 1 large in the middle. We never drove this vehicle in the rain so we never used the top, possibly repairable as the rest look to be in good shape, but maybe is easier to just put band new vinyl on it. back window is Ultralite, a see through clear vinyl window, has some scratches and marks but overall is plenty usable still. -Trunk closes but needs to be adjusted as you have to push it down to latch it 2 Box of random parts will be included as well with the sale from the previous owner. These parts appear to be old parts that were possibly replaced such as antenna and motor, door panel controls, bolts, nuts, screws, seatbelt parts, small interior pieces, 2 headrests. Etc. They seem like old parts that were pulled but may have been saved to be fixed later or used for donor parts etc. This is the car you've been looking for, an incredibly rare collector car with minor issues left to sort out that will keep the price reasonable. This car will surely increase in value as less and less are on the road. I've added as many pictures as the listing would allow and an HD video showcasing it running with the sound system going! Ebay will only allow a certain number of photos on the listing but if you message me directly on Ebay requesting more pictures they will allow me to send as many pictures to you in messages!

If you are at all interested in the car, please reach out so I can get you any information you need as I believe this car is priced to sell, and with the extremely rare nature of the vehicle wont last long. This car is located in Ruston Louisiana in-between Shreveport and Monroe I would be happy to show you this car in person if you would like to set up a time and day to view this vehicle in person so you can review every detail and make sure it's exactly what your looking for! I highly encourage and welcome viewings of the vehicle Vehicle can be paid for in cash (preferred method) with title and keys handed over at the same time, or cashiers check, but must go 1 minute down the road to my bank to make sure money clears before handing over title and keys, or finally Ebay's Escrow option of payment (0.89-3.25% is the fee charged via this method, and is why i recommend and prefer cash for both of us) .
