They definitely did 😂 Appreciate You Guys! 🙌

Detail Dane and wd detailing should collaborate on a detail series or something.

[@dalegereaux1863]

The outside cleaned up pretty well ! 👍 I think on that interior I would have started with a rake and shovel and then use the vacuum. 😉😜

[@DetailDane]

I'll keep that in mind for the next one 😂

[@DSP1968]

Wow, quite a transformation! I did not think it would come out that good. I do hope you seal the deal so that we can see this Eldorado on the road again.

[@DetailDane]

I got the deal 😎 stay tuned to see it running soon! 💪

nice to see the Puro cameo. Great detail!

Yes I own a 67 Buick Rivera rear wheel drive ,I also owned at one time a 66 Tornado front wheel drive,love them both,but the Riv is my baby

[@BossaNossa1]

Great! Great! job! I got to say.... This type of detailing is complete and utterly relaxing therapy... I love to clean and preserve anything for that matter! And when I see how dirty and "lost" something appears to be (The interior with all those nuts!!!) and then it is cleaned and renewed wonderful!!! Keep it coming and would love to know what's in the trunk!!!

[@sefra6290]

Show the engine running

[@dalegereaux1863]

I hope you're able to get that El Dorado and make it roadworthy again. Some of my rich relatives owned Cadillacs and one time when I was 19 I got to drive one of them from Los Angeles to Las Vegas ! It was like floating down the highway.

[@DetailDane]

Stay Tuned we are gonna get it running and driving in the near future!

Nice work bringing the interior back to life ! 👍

Beautiful looking Caddie!! Well done on getting it clean for the very first time in 4 decades!!

[@wolfman515]

I had a friend who had one of those in high school, couldn't keep front tires on. Everyone knew where he'd been by the burnouts he did, helluva lot of power in them old tanks.

[@AlmightyLAC1984]

Need longer videos I’m hooked 😂

[@JamesMillis-v3w]

That Cadillac was basically a diamond in a manure pile. I hope any future plans for it won't include ruining its original looks with tires or wheels different that what it would've had when it was new.

[@rabidturnip78]

Oh ?...no 30in wheels with 1/4 inch of tire? Lol

Thanks I appreciate it 🙏

[@BenjaminLarson-n8g]

It's nice to see one of these extremely underappreciated Eldorado's. I initially thought you were wasting your time with this one but it held up pretty good, it doesn't take much neglect or damage to render one of them a parts car. The front end damage is worse than it looks, that will all need to be replaced to be perfect, it was for looks not protection. Mine got clipped by someone turning into it and catching the corner of the bumper only damaging the piece under the blinker, but it tweeked the entire bumper. I wish you the best of luck, these are great cars, but also very challenging as there is no aftermarket support and never was. The brakes could prove themselves to be your biggest challenge. I look forward to future videos.

[@mattpipes5106]

Good job! Wow, 8 liter engine and front wheel drive…. You could probably move the earth with the front wheels, I’m excited to see what happens with the rad ‘rado!

[@majortwit]

Yeah, that massive hunk of iron and transaxle sitting square on the steering wheels had to be great fun to drive, maybe even a bit sporty 🤪 I bet the wheel horsepower was better than a slushbox, driveshaft, and differential weight holding it back. Had to be fun in the deeper snow, too.

[@DetailDane]

Rad'rado 😂 I like it! Haha. Appreciate it 🙏

[@StaufferGarage]

Well done bro! This thing turned out amazing after. The critter treasures reminded me of the abandoned Fiero I did.

[@DetailDane]

Appreciate it! 🙌 you'll have to come on one of these Barn finds 😎

[@deweygill1973]

Yeah, Eldos and Toronados were GM’s front wheel drive offerings. I had a ‘68 Toronado with the 400 horse 455 and it SMOKED the front tires. Introduced by Olds in 1966, it was the first modern era front wheel drive car. Cadillac followed in 1967 with the Eldorado .

[@garyg8036]

Overall nice detail. Undercarriage needs to be done. You always should open / remove the cover to the carburator to clean when detailing the engine since rodents love to store food in there.

[@garygerbino3171]

Connect the battery, then hit the power trunk release in the glove box

[@DetailDane]

Oh now you tell me 😂

[@dave1956]

The 1970 Eldorado was a favorite of mine. It still looks great 50 years later.

[@BossaNossa1]

Dane, I have a 2002 Chrysler Town Country we bought brand new... The interior is leather and the steering wheel is leather as well... The steering wheel is really heavily layered with years of oil, sweat, and who knows what else! I really want to clean the steering wheel! What do you suggest...? Thanks!

[@Samuelfish2k]

Fellow detailer here.. To keep it simple and easy for you to source the product, you can use Super Clean diluted 10:1 [10 parts water 1 part concentrate] spray onto a microfiber towel and wrap around your steering wheel. It’ll clean it right up.

[@retroguy9494]

"It drove and rode nice but he wanted a newer one so he just parked that one." GEEZ! It amazes me how much money these farmers had that they could just 'park' a beautiful Cadillac in some barn for decades when they got a new one and not even think about it! Didn't trade it in, didn't sell it. Just 'parked' it. That's how I found my 1976 Fleetwood with only 38K original miles. When the owner got a new one, it was just parked in a pole barn for 30 years. Never started or ran. Same gas and tires from the 1980's, etc. Only mine was in near pristine condition because, of course, the pole barn was all enclosed.

[@tanyasegerstrom1886]

She cleaned up good hope you can keep her and if I remember hearing right there wasn't a key for the trunk looking forward to more vlogs with the caddy

We never got to see the engine bay cleaned up. This was a big job I'm sure it took you a while to buff out this barge with that little buffer. Yes all of the Eldorado's were front wheel drive just like their cousins the Toronados and the Riveras. That's why there is no hump in the floor.

[@TonyMancini-js2br]

The upright hood ornament isn't standard issue, it has to be an add-on. The front emblem is factory issue. I had a '68 and there was only one emblem.

I'd like to see a video of it underneath on the lift. It's nice that it's a front wheel drive! But wouldn't the hoses be brittle and chewed on?

[@jakereal3604]

If you restore please remove those added on rear marker lights that some “genius”. Added at some point. They look terrible. Seal up the holes and put a new vinyl top on. I believe the correct grain for this year/model was called Tuxedo grain.

[@wilsixone]

Man, he doesn't fool around detailing does he? I'm a little surprised he uses a wheel that spins that fast, but it worked. Chemicals I guess. The car is pretty nice. A decent way to present it if he's tryna sell it. Sometimes cleaned up is better. It's a good start for a restoration and all the body panels look str8 and rust-free which is amazing. I don't get that roof-mounted Cadillac wreath. WTF is that?? Weird. Nice interior too. Anybody note the original mileage on the odo??? It can't be much, they made them to wear out fast back then and the interiors look pretty ratty typically over 100K. So I think it's significantly lower than that. Guy Dane does a nice job, like to see more of his work. I'll subscribe and see what else he comes up with 😉

[@jeffrobodine8579]

Had to watch this since I have a 1970 Eldorado. Unfortunately, someone gave it an Earl Scheib Gumby Green paint job back in it's past. I have finally gotten it mechanically sound now I want to have it sprayed back to its original Firemist Green.

Good flat on the bottom joke... I learned that one from Burt Reynolds.

[@IvoPoblete]

Please, do not do burnouts with this car. I know it can be tempting. That must be the 500 CID V8 with the W-34 engine option which makes it go up to 400HP. The owner said it had that horsepower rating, btw. With the 8.2 litres badge I can tell it's a '70 model, also.

[@anthonybianchini5144]

W-34 is an 455 engine code for the Oldsmobile Toronado. This Cadillac 500CID/400HP is the standard engine in every 1970 Eldorado.

[@IvoPoblete]

@@anthonybianchini5144 Yes, you're right. I got sidetracked by that 400HP rating the owner mentioned. So did the 8.2 litre for '70 got as standard that horsepower number??

[@anthonybianchini5144]

@@IvoPoblete Yes. Keep in mind gross HP vs. net. Net ratings came in 1971, along with reduced compression ratios.

That car was a family of squirrels’ whole world. Generations of building, saving, caring and fighting for the territory with other squirrels only for it to be vacuumed up, erasing every trace of their existence and putting their home into someone else’s hands with no one to remember them. I’ll remember them.
