That Eldorado is a dream car. Sadly, Cadillac just doesn’t offer any new cars that I would dream of owning. I keep holding on to my 1984 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Convertible as I have never seen anything that I like better - it has been with me since 1992 and will likely be with me as long as I am able to drive. I am it’s second owner, and I fell in love with it when it was featured on the floor of the St. Louis New Car Dealers’ Automobile Show in 1984 - beautiful dark blue with white leather and top.
Do you have videos of your personal Lincolns n Caddys
I like this roofline better. Reminds me of the ‘79 - ‘85. My favorite years for the Eldorado.
I bought a 2002 Eldorado ETC with 65,000 miles from Copart in Oregon. $225! Your convertible has latches that are similar to the 1990 to 1995 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme convertibles built by Cars and Concepts in Georgia.
Be prepared for big bucks when the Northstar V-8 engine goes, just look on YT or the internet...otherwise really love this car!
A few features of the Eldorado not mentioned in the video: The radio has a built-in 'reverb' feature as well as NOAA weather band (good to have in a convertible). The speedometer recalibrates to metric without having to use two sets of numbers on the dial. Look for 29MPG at 70MPH on the highway. The back seat is very comfortable for a six footer in the steel roof version. Nice tour of the car. Thanks for all of the details!
I believe it. I would get 26mpg in my bigger 4 door STS
You buy cars I have a 2004 Lincoln for sale super clean 125,000 miles it just had it's first cup of coffee with the miles lol
Funny, I have a 2004 Seville with 86,000 miles and only get 12mpg in town and 21 on the HWY. Great car, otherwise.
Nice car, though I wonder about those side boots for the convertible top. I was waiting for the moment, but seems you forgot to put them on? My impression is, are they cumbersome to deal with? To me, it looks like two open void spaces without them & they should be installed.
I had an 2001 Eldorado and I used the fuel door key fob button all the time hahahah
This car is a rare one this car is like an homage to the vintage Eldorado convertibles this is like a modern day Eldorado Biarritz 👍👍
The whole time you were showing this car I was screaming put on the filler strips for the top so we can see what it looks like!
I had a '94. I love the interior and the body lines on this car. The Northstar had great power until it started failing. But, I love it.
My only complaint with my 2000 Deville Northstar engine, is how expensive it was to have the sensors fixed. And everything was so hard to actually get to... mechanically it was a great engine. This is a stunning car.
I want a 2002 so bad! I just can't own a Northstar...
Don't be scared bro, I have owned about 10 and just bought one like this 2002 Collector series convertible. You will fall in love with the smooth power!
@@DJKadilacI was so disappointed when my '97 Eldo's headgasket went to pot in 2015. I got 3 mechanics opinion, and they all told me it would be 3 grand to fix it. I decided not to get it fixed.
I've owned a ton of Northstar engine Cadillacs, you hit the nail on the head.... get rid of the Dex Cool..... I have a trick to fixing that head gasket issue, I used to buy them a lot... but that is a really nice car.
What is the trick?
I've had head gasket issues in the past.
And don't want to spend another three grand on another engine
Odd, I've owned a 2006 STS V8 since 2019, came with Dex Cool, I flushed and refilled with (orange) Dex-Cool, no issues at all. Overall the Northstar is not supposed to be any good, car runs perfect.
@@joemannix174I had a 1997 Eldo. Around 2015, the head gasket went to pot and made it undriveable. All 3 mechanics I had check it out, wanted about 3 grand to fix it. I decided it wasn't worth it for a car that old.
Very nice ride. My mom would have liked this one
What a sweet summer cruiser! Like buttah!!!
I always love these kind of Eldorado cars which is the end of an era
Another amazing car, Anthony! I just ordered my Specialty Motor Cars License Plate and I’m so excited for it. Happy Father’s Day to you and to PapaBear!!!
I worked at a caddy dealer back then and I remember we had a couple...our owner drove one for awhile and very cool at the time...still cool. Coachbuilders did a good job...talked to them a few times...I worked in the parts department and you wouldn't believe how many vogue tires we warrantied! Look good on some cars but junk sidewalls. This car's a steal for 18grand. Gm had a lousy chroming process back then for the wheels. My 03 lesabre had the same peeling and pitting issues so I bought new ones and just taking care of them....just gotta wash them often and keep them waxed. First thing I did to my lesabre was get the dexcool out of there...complete flush and green coolant added.
What a beautiful car just needs the Godfather air horn.
This car really has me want to buy it more than any other car I’ve seen on your channel I saw one of these along time ago and it really struck me as a really impressive vehicle and it was actually the same color I could just imagine how it would be awesome to drive it
Hello Anthony & Papa Bear, this Eldorado convertible is absolutely gorgeous!!! Decades ago I had a 67 red de Ville convertible with a white leather interior that got a lot of attention. This Caddy is from Naples Florida, I can just picture Bill saying how chipper the Canadians will be in the back seat!!! Thanks for sharing this exciting video of this exciting Eldorado convertible!!! 👍👍🙂
Hello Christopher this is a beautiful car, all over. Papa 🐻 & Anthony
@@paulgozzo9178 I bet this convertible is a real dream to drive too!!!
What a beautiful ride! Hi Anthony & Papa Bear! 🐻😊🐶🐕
Thank you Pal. Papa 🐻 & Anthony
I would like to buy 5 of these cars. Wait you mean this is a one of a kind? You blew this one out of the park with quality and price. I admire your ability to bring the best of the best at a reasonable price.
🪣Hand wash only too. Neat Eldo drop top. Great color combo too, classic caddy! Hard to believe 21 yrs old. Yes. the tail lights are neat homage to bygone era.
Hi Anthony, another beautiful Cadillac and video! I love it. Love your channel. We are so much alike in terms of our tastes, OCD about details, and family values. Someday I am going to buy a Caddy from you....just waiting for the right one. BTW, a big happy father's day to you and Papa Bear. I really love and respect how you treat your dad. It's obvious that you love and cherish him. I would have loved to buy my dad a Cadillac as he always wanted one since I could remember but just couldn't get himself to splurge on himself. He was the hardest working man I've ever known. By the time I was doing very well financially and could have easily bought him one, he had passed and it breaks my heart as I think he would have cried. Love you guys and take care!!
Hello Terry hope all is good with you. Sorry you hear about your dad. Papa 🐻 & Anthony
This car will be in Houston by next Saturday.
I'M A CADILLAC MAN, LOV THIZ CAR , N ALWAYS LIKED THE EL DOG
An Eldorado Convertible, I don't think I have ever seen one of those, I love it, that would be perfect in our 100+ degree days here!
I think Stephen Tarampi in Ft. Lauderdale needs this in his vast collection. Still waiting patiently for you know what. HPB (Hey Papa Bear)
Hello John how are you? Papa 🐻
@@paulgozzo9178 doing great.
I saw one of those when I was in Mobile Alabama a little over a month ago.
Dear Anthony, I thank
you for your videos, and how they taught
Me how to buy old folks cara that were low mileage and needed less than $1000
To get them ready for sell. I have bought
43 cars near Sarasota. I can sell for 5k less, so I thank you, so.much.
Anthony, this is beautiful. Great find!!
Hey guys, as always a treat to see your thumbnail pop up! May sound crazy but I think a gold trim package on that convertible would really set it off! Call spoke wheels etc.
The pin stripe looks Great
That’s a really cool classic, very rare, and in lovely condition. A great cruiser and posers car. Just a shame it has a north star
Another Gozzo legendary car - Anthony sets the gold standard for reconditioning. Few dealers will invest in making a used car a true turnkey ready for driving enjoyment car like Anthony, sounds like he spent $4,000 to $5,000 getting it to his standard - and he still resells it for a reasonable price! If anything, I think Anthony could become even pickier and people would still gladly pay knowing that there was nothing else needed. I do have one minor suggestion: there is no need to pass your personal opinion about soft boot vs. hard boot aesthetics, the customer's eyes can decide for themselves what they think of the style. The quibble about the latch handles needing to be retracted is also a quibble that would be better presented as an emphasis on proper top operation. Specialty Motor Cars is in the premier league of vendors for modern classic cars. Bravo for another beauty!
You forgot to show how to install the 'jelly beans' What the heck LOL
Priced right,especially with all the work you had done to it.rare,clean car.
In case you didn't notice in the video when that car is driving, the digital clocks blink and stop and then blink again, this indicates that there is an electrical fault in both the blackboard console and the radio console
Love the Caddy, class act. Straight fair pricing
Hi Anthony,
I would like your thoughts...
I've owned two Cadillac DeVilles,
The first 1996 with a Northstar engine,
Had to be replaced in 2008
Leaving me with $3000
Repair bill!
I liked the overall car, and the body was starting to show it's age so I got another one identical to the first one that I owned...
I didn't plan it that way it just happened...
But now,
After owning the car since 2011....
It is my daily driver and it runs on the hot side.
I'm shopping around for a different car, because the thought of spending another $3,000 to replace another Northstar engine is not an option.
The car in your video is very nice, but the thought of owning another Cadillac with a Northstar will never happen again.
What are your thoughts on these ticking time bombs?
They didn't perfect the Northstar till the 2005 MY. They learned from the metallurgy of the LS engines primarily the aluminum heads require longer coarser bolt threads. The 2005-2010 Northstar engines should be good.
Had a 1998 model and loved it. Never had an issue with the car. Mine was crimson red with white leather. Factory moon roof. Bought it new in Chattanooga and sold it with 65k miles on it. Car was just as sound as the day I bought it off the show room floor. Wish I had it now. She was a dream car.
Been in love with this car since I first saw one around 1995.
I like it, it pays homage to the 80's Eldorado ❤️
Nice Lac Ant....
Just stunning!
I would like to see papabears dts convertible
Hey Sam maybe we can take it out soon it has been stored in side for the past winter. Papa 🐻 & Anthony
@24:06 that little key you can throw away Anthony, it's for one of those steering wheel club anti theft devices 😁
I love these cars! In my bucket list is a 84-85 ElDorado rag top and this one as well!! GLWTS!!
Nice car ! Never saw one like that before . Thanks Snthony
i remember those convertibles. i think there was a few convertibles for 1979-1985 i think were after market. i did see one Seville similar generation as your Eldorado made into a convertible 4 door convertible is very different looking. you always have good videos.
I kind of get the gas cap release button the remote key fob. You stop to get gas, get out and forgot you didn't press the dash release. Just press it on the remote. Not a terrible idea.
Looks like The Flintstones car
Oh wow that's a conversion!
24:05 It should be to turn on/off the alarm, if it's the same system as in the Opel Corsa C (another GM product). There's a specific place to insert and rotate it in the engine bay.
Gorgeous car 💯
Awesome car and presentation.
GM doesn't make cars like that any more. The conversion makes it look great.
How much you want Anthony, Would love to have it.
He is asking 17,995
Pure Elegance.
That Caddy is for a Cat daddy. Looking Good.
Hey shaggy, grab a bucket and some Lysol and scrub the shìt off my tires. There’s fvckin dog shit all ova by da entrance!

I have a 2002 Eldorado ESC, metallic Red, cream leather interior same as the white convertible, 63,850 original miles. No rust ever, garage kept, engine clean as new from the factory. No moderations.
Thing of beauty!!
Boy is that the smallest rear window I’ve ever seen. Nicely done though.
Where do you find a replacement top when it needs to be replaced?
Beautiful Car Anthony
Looking for a early 80's Oldsmobile 98 regency with a 5.7 Diesel. Doesn't have to be prestine or low low miles. But I would like to find a running rust free or very minimal rust candidate. Prefer cloth over leather. But will take what I can get. Only thing I am strongly against is mouse infestation. Small mechanical issues are fine. . Let me know if you can help. I had one in burgundy with burgundy velour when I was younger. And now I'd like one again.
Super cool ride!
Beautiful car 😀
Stunning!!!
That’s sweeeeet Anthony!!
Can't wait for the escalade video! 👏👏
Beautiful car! Received my T shirt and keychain. Both are quality. Saving keychain for when I have one of your cars. Papa bear, we need a peek at your convertible.
Thank you Kenny for your support greatly appreciated. Are you talking about the DTS it's covered in the back roll maybe we will get it now that summer is coming. Papa 🐻 & Anthony
Great for MA winters.;)
What a beautiful car!!!
Gorgeous

When are you posting the Escalade?
Keep watching Alex I'm sure it will be coming up very soon Papa 🐻 & Anthony
Nice and clean Eldo
How do you get in the back with the seat belts in the way
Did u sell it yet ? If so what price range did it sell for? .
I am looking to purchase one in the near future.
I keep watching and waiting for jet the right car for me . I have had a 1970 couple & a brougham , also a 1973 sedan deville
My last was a 1990 Fleetwood brougham
Triple White with vogue wheels and wire trims from the factory.... l miss that car . Some one stole it from me when l lived in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida in 2000
Very fairly priced ... pretty car
Like it, want it, wife needs it, well. Fly from Reno, Nv. to get it.
Beautiful car and serviced perfectly!
Hi George
Hey Al
@@bigalsbikeandauto Hello Big Al thank you for supporting the papa 🐻 Specialty tee shirt. I'm sure you have one with Anthony on it. That's all great we love your support Thank You Pal.
Hello George hope you ordered your specialty items already. Papa 🐻
@@paulgozzo9178 I’m team Papa Bear!
I LOVE that one ❤❤❤❤
Wow that is rare !
I love this generation ElDorado, but I’ve never cared for the convertibles…but I’m noticing for the first time, from the side it almost has an old school 80’s ElDorado style
What does the 91 and 85 Cadillacs look like?
Neat with the top down ugly with it up. They should have made it a hard top convertible or at least angled the back if the ragtop.
Hell yeah!
Happy Father's Day to you and Papa Bear!!!
Hello Anthony I love the Cadillac Eldorado man nice car give Papa 👴🏻👋🏾👋🏾👍🏾bear a shout out for me
Hello Steven right back to you. Papa 🐻 & Anthony
Very nice 😀
Hi Anthony that car is beautiful and if I could afford it I would be down there tomorrow from you and the North Stars are good engines if you keep up with them I had a 1988 Lincoln Mark VII LSC and only had 33,000 Miles on it and it was a Convertible and it was made by Coach Builders also and from Maimi In Florida is were the car was and they even put the Brass name on the dashboard for the owner who had it and I paid $10,000 and I never ever seen a car that I had oh and it was even Garaged since it was brand new I bought it back in 2010 and then only drove it on Sundays because I had a garage and I don't think it even had a scratch on it and the Convertible top from Coach Builders came with a snap on red cover when you put the top down and I owned it for 2 years and had like 10 coats of wax on it and the car was white Exterior and red interior with the white Convertible top and the Lincoln Mark VII LSC had the honeycomb rims and the 5.0 high output and it was really fast and the only thing I did in 2 years was just changed the oil a few times and the other fluids and I put high performance spark plugs and wires and when I sold it the car only had a little over 38,000 and I sold it for $24,000 from a retired Airforce guy who was from Maryland and I picked him up at Logan Airport and he couldn't believe it when he seen it and I even let him drive it home back to Maryland with my Plates and insurance so he didn't have to have it shipped back then but now I wish that I never sold it because right now I could probably get $50,000 for it. Goodluck on selling it I am sure you won't have a problem.
They need to make a come back
I’d snatch the troublesome NorthStar out, and put in an LS3
Nice, but not even close to the best list of top 10 Eldorado's.
I've owned 12 Cadillacs, 3 of which were Eldorado's. Never even thought to look at one of these to own.
man, i want to move to the states just for the cars
I want this gem
Hi Anthony....I own a 99' ETC and am totally in love with the car, but I don't understand why most (all?) reviews don't get into the internal design benefits that Cadillac builds into them. Perhaps its because many reviewers do not have access to the original owner's manual (I had to secure mine from E-Bay). Some examples of these included features are as follows:
Feature______________ Description____________________________
Power seat controls 8-way power front seat cushions and seat backs
adjust to fit two different drivers.
Power lumbar control Adjusts the lumbar part of both front seat-backs and
turns their lumbar massage feature on and off.

Power trunk latch Set the trunk lid down gently and the power latch
quietly screws the trunk down tight (No more trunk
slamming required).

entry systems.

is turned on. Is otherwise totally hidden.

Suspension System automatically senses road surface and
hardens or softens suspension accordingly. Also
self-balances when trailer tongue weight is added.
Engine Engine is an eight-cylinder, overhead cam,
Northstar engine with four valves per cylinder. It
produces 300 horsepower, gets 25 miles per gallon
of gas on the highway (using cruise control), and 19
mpg in town consistently.
Design Feature Dash and doors are tastefully enhanced with genuine
zebrano wood.
P.S.: Like your videos...can't say the same for the after-market soft-top on this example...it ruins the
original roof line and looks like an after-thought.
Thank You for taking the time to add this information, very much appreciated!
