The car was reportedly delivered from the factory in Crystal Blue Firemist (90) and was refinished when the front fenders, front and rear fender-extension fillers, taillight bezels and rear license-plate housing were replaced as part of an overall refurbishment conducted in 2017. Additional features include a power-operated white soft top, quad headlights, fender-mounted turn-signal indicators, chrome bumpers, and a rigid parade boot that was refinished as part of the 2017 refurbishment. A replacement power-operated white soft top has been installed along with a replacement driver-side handle for the roof latch.
The Dayton Walther Corporation was involved in the development and manufacture of cast steel wheels for pneumatic tires for decades, and it is said to have manufactured the GM-stamped 15″ chrome wheels that were mounted on this Eldorado in 1976. The five-lug wheels feature chrome tri-eared spinners and are mounted with 235/75 Ironman RB-19 NWS tires showing 2017 date codes. A lug nut is missing from two of the wheels. Braking is provided by power-assisted front and rear discs.
The cabin features Dual Comfort seats trimmed in blue leather, with fold-down armrests up front. Woodgrain trim accents the dashboard, steering wheel, door panels, and side panels in the rear seating area, and amenities include cruise control, tilt and telescopic steering, Twilight Sentinel automatic-dimming headlights, power-adjustable front seats, power windows, power locks, automatic climate control, three-speed windshield wipers, and an AM/FM radio with an eight-track player.
Instrumentation includes a horizontal 100-mph speedometer. The five-digit odometer shows 8,100 miles, approximately 700 of which have been added by the seller.
The fuel-injected 500ci V8 delivers power to the front wheels through a Turbo Hydra-Matic three-speed automatic transmission. The engine and fuel-injection system (including the latter’s electronic control module) was rebuilt in 2022, and copies of estimates and invoices from Whiskey’s Auto Distillery in Las Vegas, Nevada, detailing the engine rebuild are provided in the photo gallery below.
The fuel tank was flushed and sealed and the fuel-gauge sending unit was replaced as part of the engine rebuild. Additional photos of the underside are presented in the gallery.
Original ownership documentation, manufacturer’s literature, and service records are included in the sale.
