A somewhat rare beast, great find, as usual, Dinh!  The red and white interior is classic 70's Cadillac and was quite desirable when this car was produced.  I had heard somewhere that the white exterior paint used on Cadillacs of this vintage was extra durable? 

I would caution any potential suitors to this car to check the vinyl top replacement very carefully.  Reach up in the rear of the trunk/ body corners to look for any tell-tale vinyl top rust damage.

So would white sun visors and white A pillar trim with a red headliner be a normal treatment?

Mine was originally white, but diesel soot soiled it. Replaced with red. White interior and diesel fumes not a good combo.
