Fit for royalty and radiating an aura of opulence, this 1971 Cadillac Sedan DeVille in Dutchess Gold is the epitome of American luxury. The year 1971 marked a pivotal moment for the DeVille series, ushering in a redesign that birthed the longest and largest models ever crafted. Riding on 15" steel wheels adorned with iconic Cadillac hub caps and wrapped in 225/75R15 tires (2023 except RR, 2021), this particular specimen stands as a testament to Cadillac's unwavering commitment to excellence. The original chrome bumpers and trim gleam with a luster that defies the passage of time, while the black vinyl top adds a touch of sophisticated contrast to the Dutchess Gold (Code 55) exterior.
The black leather split-bench interior (Code 351), adorned with power front seats, invites you to sink into a world of comfort and refinement. Power steering ensures effortless navigation, while power windows allow you to effortlessly showcase the hardtop profile of this extra-large sedan. The pristine dash, adorned with the original AM/FM radio and beautifully preserved wooden trim, transports you back to an era when craftsmanship reigned supreme. Functioning turn signal indicators on the top of the fenders add a touch of classic charm, reminding you of the attention to detail that defines this automotive masterpiece.
Within the engine bay lies a formidable 472 V8, a powerhouse that embodies the spirit of American muscle. Paired with a smooth-shifting 3-speed automatic transmission (TH400), this Cadillac effortlessly glides down the road. The 12-bolt rear axle ensures that power is delivered with unwavering reliability, while the power brakes provide confident stopping power. The single exhaust, equipped with an aftermarket muffler, emanates a throaty rumble that hints at the untapped potential lurking beneath the hood.
