These were very durable, but front floors did not hold up well at all.  I purchased one in '74 with around 60k miles, and the floors were ALREADY shot... I suspected that the flat floors were constantly under siege from front wheel road salt being propelled directly at them.  This one would provide a substantial head start on a solid restoration.  The seller clearly got his hands dirty, and has made substantial progress with way more invested than his asking price.

Through May of 1968, 7.4% of Eldorado production was this color.

It's a beautiful color. I know it's different but the FWD Eldorado wears it well. Wish it had photos of the interior.
