1968 Cadillac Fleetwood Eldorado |

With the Fleetwood Eldorado, Cadillac introduced an entirely new, and singularly successful concept in personal cars. Now, for 1968, many refinements in styling and handling - and the briljant action of the new 472 V-8 - bring to personal car motoring the most spirited performance in the luxury field. Eldorado is still the only car in the world which combines the precision of front wheel drive with the maneuverability of variable ratio power steering and the balance of automatic level control.
The retractable covers in the grille open to reveal the dual headlights. Concealed windshield wipers enhance the unbroken lines of the Eldorado's distinctive profile. New upholstery fabrics and leathers... a completely new instrument panel... new rosewood paneling... and many other new interior appointments provide all the comfort and graciousness expected of a true luxury automobile. For those seeking a most unusual motoring experience, there is no more exciting answer than Eldorado - the world's finest personal car.
