- 1977 Cadillac Coupe Deville As New getting suspension upgrades, wire wheel and tires.
Just a display vid of a nice low mile totally original triple black astro leather car and some of the things getting done. - Auta a dopravní prostředky
My mom had 77 Cadillac coupe de ville she gave me the car when I turned 16 years old in 1986 I drove the car until 1992 and then parked it in my garage for years I just had the whole car restored to the original condition I love this car
That Coupe Deville is gorgeous. I really like the wheels. I have a '77 Coupe Deville in Jennifer Blue, mostly all original and in really good to very good condition but with 93,000 miles it is nowhere near as nice as the one in the video. The previous owner put a set of American Racing wheels on it, they look ok but those wire wheels would look far better.
Again one of Cadillacs best most favorable designs and personal favorites, looks great in most color combos, good engine for the car , would also go down the highway like you want ....
What a beautiful car!
Beautiful caddy, I have a 80 coupe deville elegance
Those suspension mods are essential for driving enjoyment.
Two of my favorites, 77-92 RWD De Ville/fleetwood and the 79-85 eldorado

My favorites as well.

Just bought a REALLY NICE 78 coupe Deville.
I love the eldorado but was advised by my mechanic to avoid the HT4100 and 4-6-8 engines - so I searched for the coupe.
I’m not disappointed at all - the ride and power is amazing
Sharp Cadillac DeVille 1977 Good Good Car Strong GENERAL MOTORS ❤❤❤
I love this Caddy 😊😊😊😊😊
Absolutely beautiful. Great video.
Thank you very much!
I remember the A/C in that model could keep ice cream frozen.
Beautiful!
Thanks Matt. The suggestion is very much appreciated. I'll check it out and see if it improves the handling. It won't hurt it at any rate. You were very kind to reply. I appreciate it very much.
I regret selling the one I had. It was a 78 basically the same body style. Great automobile.
First time watching your videos and i must say i like how honest you are a d direct you are and teaching as you go, i was reminded of alot, and i enjoyed your point of view, and yes thise Cadillacs could have came with a more stirdy suspension to stop how frisky they would get and lose they were ,they still was soft ride just not stirdy as they coukd have been to keep control over them at highway speeds or anything above, 25 mph i woukd say, but mostly everything you already said is spot on ...thanks
I think GM did a good job downsizing here. My parents bought a 79 White on white with all the options and powder blue interior. They drove it a few years then gave it to me. My first official car. I loved it. No problems except at 100,000 miles the carburetor was acting up a bit.
Our '77 Electra was sprung so softly, they sagged after a few years and had to be replaced so we could carry luggage again. It handled pretty well--compared to our '68 Electra and '56 Olds.
You did it the way GM should have done it from the beginning. And I think they would have sold more units if they only did it the way you did it.
Very nice car very pretty and sweet it is what you call a sleeper
just got my hands on 77 Sedan deVille. Can't wait till I can make it shine like and roll nice
Beautiful caddy you have thanks for sharing. I love the way you've added hidden modifications to car without changing the originality of it. A little suspension modification, a little more power under the hood with the flipped up air cleaner. Nobody would suspect that the car has been modified unless you have a really trained eye. Do you still have the early 80's red brougham with the 501 engine?
Nice Caddy!!
Love the rims! The '78 taillights were a much better design.
would love to see more of that 94-96 cadillac in the back
Matt, thanks for showing us this Cadillac. I have a '72 Eldorado that I absolutely love, but it certainly lays over on itself going around curves! Glad you mentioned the sway bar. I'll look into changing mine with a beefier replacement.
There is actually a rare rear sway bar option and some aftermarket applications that can go on the 71-78 eldo, toro platform. I’m not sure if it will let me send this link or not but I will do it in the next comment

Just a random link that is avali at this time. Helps those cars a lot
Love to drive this with the 2.73.
I put '81-'85 Seville center caps on my wires. They are roughly 1.5x larger diameter than the factory center caps. Gives the car a bolder look. Only problem with doing suspension upgrades on these cars is that it exposes rattles. My friends hate me because "let's go for a ride.. tell me where this rattle is coming from!"
Just put a really loud exhaust system on it. All the rattles just seem to go away.
@gm-classics ha! Did that, too. 415cid with 2.5" true duals with DynoMax Super Turbo mufflers. Nice and quiet at cruise and idle but sounds like an animal under heavy throttle. Fixt some rattles but not all.
AWESOME!!!
Thanks, Matt, for the presentation of the 1977 Cadillac Coupe Deville. It's a beautiful car. I have a 1978 Cadillac Coupe deville and I want to have a better ride. Besides the CA 1 sway bar and the gas shocks, what front end suspension modification were completed? Thank in advance
I get a kick out of hearing Matt Garrett talk about Matt Garrett...lol. Great car sir...beautiful.
I have a 77 Coupe in Soverign Gold & could use some help finding the sway bars you used.
I just have wire hubcaps.
Thank you.
This video is making want one of these
Hi Matt
Thank you for sharing your video and thoughts on the coupe Deville.
Would you mind replying with the tire size, sway bar, and shocks that you upgraded to?
I want to improve the handling of my 78 coupe without destroying that Cadillac ride. 😊 11:47
Raw as hell!!💯💪🏽
Damn that car is cool Cadillac Black Jack!
While you're on the subject of suspension. My 98 feels like your riding on tires that are filled with 90 pounds of air. Yes, it has airbags but they were bypassed. And there are 4 new shocks and struts. It just sounds and feels so stiff. Your opinion please. 1998 Devile.
Hello Matt, I love that black 77 coupe Deville that you have. It’s if it’s for sale please let me know.
Do you do these types of things for other Peoples cars would love to know. I am definitely looking for a Cadillac of this year. And would love to have it done the way this Cadillac is done. Please call comment back, thank you.
Is it for sale??
so hard to find. ive been looking for a low mileage 77 to 79 coupe for a few years now
They are out there, the only issue is now cars of this age in nice shape are no longer the theoretical discounts they used to be.
Are you selling Is this car I would really love to know what you would be asking for it. My father had one like this and I would love to have 1 for myself. Please comment back thank you very much
Not for sale, all my youtube videos are for preservation and knowledge information only.
Factory wheels are garbage and looks cheap! These wheels gives this Caddy class❤
