Virtually better than new with 2016 base/clearexteriorrepaint! Just awesome! Beginning in 1979, the Eighth Generationof Cadillac Eldorado was introduced and carried through the 1985model year. It was a smaller, slimmer vehicle with severaldrivetrain variants used along the way in an effort to meetstricter Federal emission and fuel economy requirements from yearto year. To help maintain interior and trunk space, Cadillacintroduced an independent rear suspension system. They shared thesame E-body chassis platform as the Buick Riviera and OldsmobileToronado with front-wheel-drive.
