1977 Cadillac Eldorado Fleetwood review from North America
"One of the best cars I've owned"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The power steering tube leaked. New one ordered from NAPA. No problems.
Hood hinges and springs need lots of grease and should be replaced if rusted. Hood is very heavy.
Doors are very heavy.
General comments?
The car is wonderful. Rides like a dream. Comfortable like none other. The only problem is the doors and hood is very heavy. Parts are very cheap which makes this car great to own. 27 gallons makes it a bit high to drive every day.
