Being classified as at or near the top of the production line at Cadillac, the Eldorado is known for its luxury prowess. Initially debuting in 1952 and manufactured until 2002, with over twelve generations of vehicles, this model has created its own trademark among the Cadillac family. As a contraction of two Spanish words, the Eldorado translates as "the gilded (i.e., golden) one" and there is no debate that these vehicles are uniquely special.
Noted as part of the ninth generation, the 1976 model was the final year of the Eldorado convertible and was heavily promoted by General Motors as "the last American convertible." Documentation mentions that some 14,000 would be sold, many purchased as investments, and the final 200 convertibles were designated as "Bicentennial Editions." These special edition models were identical, painted white with a dual red/blue pinstripe along the upper bodyside and inside as well as had a commemorative plaque mounted to the dash.
When Cadillac reintroduced the Eldorado convertible for the 1984 model year, many customers who purchased the 1976 convertibles as investments felt that they had been deceived and launched an unsuccessful class action lawsuit against General Motors. Regardless of whether the claim of the 1976 Eldorado being "the last American convertible" is true or not, this specific model year is an icon. With only minor styling changes from previous models, the 1976 Eldorado received a new grille, a small Cadillac script on the hood face, revised taillamp lenses and new black painted wheel covers. Additional standard features included power door locks, a 6-way power adjustable seat, AM/FM stereo radio and steel-belted radial tires.
Presented here is the final year of the Big Body convertible Cadillac Eldorado. Configured in a black over tan color combination, this Eldorado is equipped with tons of options that all Cadillac owners are accustomed to, like a power convertible top, power steering, power brakes, power windows, and power locks. Under the hood is a 500ci V8 with automatic transmission that provide ample power to get this cruiser down the road. The previous owner notes that this convertible has also received a recent service which included new tires, a new top, and new brakes.
Whether you are looking to add another investment to your collection or are looking for a drop-top luxury cruiser, this Cadillac is ready for its next adventure. Although it might not be the extremely exclusive "Bicentennial Edition", the Eldorado available here is special none the same. We hope that you consider this Cadillac as your next purchase.
