tail fin which once more set the trend in automotive
styling for nearly two decades.

automatic electric
door locks, transistor radio, a brushed
stainless
steel roof and low profile tires.
The Eladlorado, introduced in 31953, was redesigned for
1967 as the first front wheel drive personal luxury car.
The 472 cu. in. V8 engine used in all1 Cadillacs in 1948
and
1969 was enlarged to 500 cu. in. for all 1970
through 1974 Eldorados. The Track Master
computerized
slud control braking system option
debuted on 1970 EBdorados.
A driver and passenger Air Cushion Restraint
system (air
bag) was available on all 1974, 1975 and
1.974 Cadillacs.
Analog Electronic Fuel Injection was available, on
1975 Cadillacs and standard on the new international
