Time Capsule, only 51k Miles, Powder Blue over Blue 1978 Cadillac Coupe Deville
This 1978 Cadillac Coupe DeVille embodies classic American luxury with just 51,525 original miles. Finished in a striking blue with a contrasting dark blue vinyl landau roof, it boasts a chrome grille, trim, and bumpers that reflect its timeless elegance. Powered by a recently rebuilt 425ci V8 engine paired with a smooth-shifting three-speed automatic transmission, this DeVille offers a robust 180 horsepower and 320 lb-ft of torque, enhanced by taller rear gears for improved acceleration and an upgraded dual exhaust for a rich, satisfying sound.
The suspension has been refreshed with new springs and shocks, ensuring a smooth and composed ride. The exterior features quad headlights, power-adjustable mirrors, a power tilt tinted sunroof, and a signature hood ornament, all adding to its vintage appeal. While the rear filler panels have been replaced and painted, the power retractable antenna is non-functional, and some minor dents are visible along the lower sides.
Inside, the cabin exudes luxury with light blue leather upholstery, a matching headliner, dashboard, and door panels. Faux wood trim accents the dash and strap-style door handles, elevating the refined interior design. This Coupe DeVille comes well-equipped with power-adjustable front seats, power windows and locks, automatic climate control, cruise control, an AM/FM stereo, and a nostalgic CB radio.
Service under current ownership has included a comprehensive overhaul, with the water pump, thermostat, master cylinder, belts, hoses, and air conditioning compressor all replaced. The transmission and rear differential have also received attention, ensuring this Cadillac is mechanically sound and ready for the road.
