The 1971-1974 Eldorado is a classic Cadillac that is fast becoming a collectable and appreciat ing automobile. Sadly, even though Cadillac was a trend-setter in introducing wire wheels for their cars, the current Eldorado owner has few choices when it comes to dressing their car up with wire wheels that add to the elegance of the car. Roadster introduced a line of wire wheels that will work on these cars, however, due to the very limited room in the rear wheel wells and close proximity of the fender skirt fastening hardware, the wire wheels require that there be a few changes made to accomodate the wheels. It is our opinion that these changes should be performed by a qualified bodyshop or fabricator so that there is no risk of harming your car. The purpose of these instructions are to demonstrate what modifications will be involved. None of these modifications will spoil or detract from the original appearance of your car. The modifications required are all to areas that cannot be viewed from the outside.
