When the Seville debuted in 1976, it was the smallest Caddy on sale, which is really saying something since it was still classed as a mid-size luxury car. Seville is derived from the name of a Spanish province that's renowned for its rich history and art culture. You can see where Cadillac was going with this, especially when you cast your eyes upon the opulence that this 1978 Cadillac Seville Grandeur Opera Coupe exudes. With just 63,000 miles on the odo, it's quite lightly used and ready to serve its next owner with grace and dignity.
Sporting a mid-blue paint job and white vinyl-wrapped top, this 1978 Cadillac Seville Grandeur Opera Coupe does exude a bit of an over-the-top persona, particularly with the twin spare wheels nestled on the front wings. It may be small, but it's still a Caddy, with those quad headlamps, sheer chrome grille, and lovely wire wheels wearing white-striped tires. This Caddy may be small in size, but it's super-large in persona and presence. Why go for the humdrum when you can have this and turn heads wherever you go? Inside, it's a rich labyrinth of white leather and proper wood trim that looks and feels as real as it is, free from the multiple layers of varnish or lacquer that today's wood trim comes with. Being a Caddy, creature comforts abound, including climate control, power door locks, power windows, and power seats. There's a period-correct AM/FM radio as well, replete with a power antenna, and you'll even find cruise control to make highway driving that little bit easier.
It may be a small Caddy in a relative sense, but this 1978 Cadillac Seville Grandeur Opera Coupe still sports a proper, American, grumbly V8. It's a 350ci Oldsmobile unit that delivers 180hp to the rear wheels via a column-shifted 3-speed THM400 automatic transmission. If the power output sounds low, blame the Seventies and the Malaise Era for that. That, plus the significant weight meant that zero to sixty was an 11-second affair when new. Still, you don't want a car that'll shake you out of its plush seats each time you breathe on the gas, but something that'll carry you in a comfortable and stately manner.
The Cadillac Seville was Caddy's stab at the personal luxury car segment, and they took it to new levels altogether. Debuting for the 1976 model year, you could buy an Seville all the way up to 2004. This 1976 Cadillac Seville Bicentennial Edition is from the first generation and was made to celebrate America's 200th Birthday. Up for sale with 70,300 miles on the clock, it's a great symbol of Americana for you to purchase and drive, as well as a savvy investment.
Cadillac may have been renowned for gargantuan land yachts in the Fifties and Sixties, but by the Seventies, the Malaise Era was in full swing, and customers were downsizing. America's best-known luxury brand knew that they needed a smaller car. Cue the Seville, which debuted in 1975. Named after a Spanish province rich in history and art, Cadillac would keep the nameplate going until 2004, when the STS replaced it. This 1978 Cadillac Seville is a fine first-generation reminder of what a relatively downsized Cadillac was like at the beginning of its life. This car has seen 100,000 miles, but the current owner reports it to have undergone some freshening up.

The Cadillac De Ville was introduced in 1958, as a full-size luxury car from America’s top luxury automaker at the time. De Ville means “of the town” in French, meaning that Cadillac intended the De Ville to be the talk of the town. The first generation is the most popular, naturally, thanks to its iconic shape and rear fins. In 1961, the second generation was introduced, with fresh styling and more body styles. Buyers could now pick from a four-door hardtop with four or six windows, a 2-door hardtop, or a 2-door convertible. If you’ve been trying to get your hands on a De Ville, check out this 56,435-mile 1964 Cadillac De Ville Sedan that’s up for sale right now. The current owner reports it to have been restored, hence its pristine appearance.
The De Ville name was first introduced as a standalone model range in 1959 and would remain a significant part of the Cadillac lineup up till 2005. The 4th generation came in 1971, and every subsequent year brought styling changes until the smaller 5th generation was released in 1977. 1974 brought changes to the front end (like a new grille and a new headlamp layout), and the introduction of a new option; the Air Cushion Restraint System (what is now known as airbags) for both front-seat occupants. It was, however, a costly option that didn’t prove popular among buyers and was discontinued after 1976. A 1971 Coupe De Ville reportedly came 3rd in the Cannonball Run, averaging 84.6mph and 8.9mpg.
The Cadillac Eldorado is a well-known luxury car from renowned American automaker Cadillac. In fact, the brand itself has become the representation of American luxury vehicles. When it debuted in 1952, the Eldorado was a full-size luxury car, and continued for fifty years, across twelve generations. With its sizable dimensions, comfortable interior and the latest technological innovations of the time, it’s no surprise that the Eldorado was an aspirational item for many. So, you can imagine how the first owner of this ninth generation 1975 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible must have felt when they went to receive their brand-new Cadillac. Now, the car has done 87,000 miles, and comes to you with a few refurbishments to keep it running at its peak. So why not acquire this quintessential Seventies Land Yacht as your next (or first) classic car?

The fourth-generation Ford Fairlane of the ‘60s offered a happy middle ground for those who wanted a large sedan or coupe but didn’t want to stretch to the levels that the Galaxie offered. Our featured Ford Fairlane has been on the receiving end of some loving restoration work and reports an all-new interior along with other key components. With a 260ci V8 engine, the owner reports a mileage of 47,200 on the odometer.
Say hello to the 1968 Chevrolet Camaro SS. You may be familiar with the name; after all, it’s one of the most iconic cars out there. It was a proper performance car that took the Camaro name to new heights. One of the downsides of this kind of fame is that imitators are aplenty — not all Camaros bore the SS moniker when they left the showroom. However, our featured car is reported to be a true SS. Moreover, it’s undergone a complete restoration to bring it to its current condition.
