The Eldorado's front wheel drive eliminates the
transmission hump and drive shaft housing, providing
a perfectly flat floor throughout for more
passenger comfort, front and rear. Vertical forward
mounting of the spare tire and a flat trunk floor
mean a spacious, unobstructed, load-carrying luggage
compartment, especially useful at vacation time.
Door Panels
Eldorado door panels are essentially the same as for
all models. The instrument panel extension or wing
houses the windshield wiper-washer controls.
Power window and door controls are conveniently
located on the armrest as is the remote-control knob
for the outside rear view mirror. The driver's door has
one door latch for driver use. The passenger's door
: has dual door latches, one for the front seat passenger
and the other for rear seat passengers, encouraging
them to exit on the right or curb side.
Rear Vent Windows
The clean, simple lines of the rear quarter windows
contribute to the Eldorado's overall distinctive
styling. For the convenience of rear seat passengers,
the windows are power operated and retract straight
rearward into the upper rear quarter or sail pane!.
Switches on the left door are for driver operation of
all windows and a single switch beneath each
quarter window is for passenger operation.
