1978 Cadillac Sedan DeVille
Good$25,995
*** Vehicle located in MI - Zoom Classic Cars presents this fabulous American classic. Offered for sale is an extraordinary, top-quality 1978 Cadillac Sedan DeVille finished in its original and elegant brown exterior over a beautiful cream interior. This is a true one‑owner survivor with only 7,800 original miles, purchased brand‑new at Prentis Cadillac in Wyandotte, Michigan. Adding to its provenance, the original owner’s father was the dealership’s master technician, and very likely the person who prepped the car when it arrived new in 1978. It simply doesn’t get more authentic than this. Engine & Transmission: Power comes from Cadillac’s legendary 425 cubic‑inch (7.0L) V8, factory‑rated at approximately 180 horsepower and 320 lb-ft of torque. This engine is known for its smoothness, durability, and effortless low‑RPM power. Paired with it is the original Turbo-Hydramatic THM‑400 3‑speed automatic transmission, widely regarded as one of the most reliable and refined transmissions of its era. Both the engine and transmission remain completely original, untouched, and operate exactly as a low‑mileage Cadillac should—silky, quiet, and confident. Condition: This Sedan DeVille is a true time capsule, preserved with exceptional care and attention. The paint, chrome, trim, glass, and interior all present beautifully, reflecting the car’s extremely low mileage and meticulous ownership. The cream interior shows minimal wear, retaining the plush comfort and luxury Cadillac was known for in the late 1970s. The car has been garage‑kept, pampered, and consistently maintained throughout its life. It drives exactly as a 7,800‑mile Cadillac should—smooth, quiet, and dignified. Known Items: Transparency matters, and the few minor issues are noted below: A/C needs a recharge - Fuel gauge reads full on startup – likely a sending unit issue: Rear filler panel beneath the license plate needs replacement – a brand‑new replacement panel is included with the sale. Other than these small items, the car is as close to a 1978 showroom experience as you will find. Tires & Wheels: The original tires were replaced due to age, but the original tires remain mounted on the original wheels with spoke caps. The buyer may choose either or both sets of tires, wheels, and caps—your preference. Summary: This is the real deal: a one‑owner, ultra‑low‑mile, beautifully preserved 1978 Cadillac Sedan DeVille with exceptional history and authenticity. Cars like this rarely surface, and almost never with this kind of mileage, documentation, and family connection to the dealership where it was sold new. *** Check out the video by clicking on "Additional Info" below the pics.
