For sale here is a very nice 1976 Cadillac Eldorado convertible. This Innsbruck Blue Eldo runs and drives great. The top is in excellent shape and works well and fast. The top has a real glass rear window with rear glass defrost. The 500 CI V-8 runs well and the car has front-wheel drive. The trans shifts smmothly. This one is a real pleasure to drive as onlookers wave and gawk.
The body is in good shape and the Innsbuuck Blue paint is nice but not perfect. There are a few minor scratches. The undercarriage is solid as is the trunk. The trunk has new weatherstrip and a new trunk kit. No spare tire or jack. The bumpers are presentable and shine well. All of the glass is good. The radials are very roadworthy with correct Cadillac hubcaps. The doors shut well and the power latch on the trunk works well.
The interior is really quite nice. The leather seats are still decent and comfy. The door panels have been redone and carpet replaced in the correct colors by a professional shop only 2 months ago. The dash is near perfect and the guages are clear. The steering wheel is very nice.
This '76 Eldo is equipped with factory A/C but needs a compressor. The power antenna does not work. The aftermarket radio/cassette does work. Has cruise but not working. Clock not working.
The exterior stainless and brightwork shines nicely and both exterior remote mirrors are working well. The headlights work, taillights, turn signals and dash arrows, horn, courtesy lights, etc. As far as we know all guages are working (temp, oil, odometer, trip, speedo,amp,etc.).
This is a very nice and ready-to-go, driveable and enjoyable 1976 Cadillac Eldorado convertible. The top works great and the car runs well. This is truly an impressive mass of metal going down the road. Please feel free to ask any questions. Sold As-is. Personal inspection is encouraged

GM considering new powertrain options for large SUVs
Tue, 15 Oct 2013Aside from the new General Motors offerings, there's not a whole lot of action going on in the fullsize SUV segment. That doesn't seem to be stopping GM from pushing the envelope in the market as Automotive News is reporting that the automaker is looking to introduce some new powertrain options into the Chevy Tahoe (and Suburban), GMC Yukon (and Yukon XL) and the Cadillac Escalade - all have been redesigned for the 2015 model year.
Now, we already know that GM and Ford are collaborating on nine- and ten-speed transmissions for a broad range of applications (including the big SUVs), but this new report says that GM is also considering other options as a way to one-up the competition and, of course, to optimize fuel economy. AN quotes Jeff Luke, executive chief engineer for GM trucks, as saying that "interesting powertrain technologies" are coming including a return of a hybrid SUV and possibly even a diesel engine. Although it sounds like the latter could come down to how customers respond to the 2014 Jeep Grand Cherokee EcoDiesel.
Mercedes leads in US luxury car thefts
Wed, 31 Jul 2013Mercedes-Benz makes some fine automobiles. The Silver Arrow'd cars are so good, apparently, that thieves can't help but try to steal them. The German brand is at the top of the charts for luxury car thefts in the US, according to the National Insurance Crime Bureau, with New York City leading the way. (And those New Yorkers complain about Detroit being bad!)
The C-Class was the most stolen model, with 485 ganked between 2009 and 2012 in NYC alone, while the E-Class and S-Class (which also boasted the worst recovery rate, at 59 percent) both finished in the top ten. Following the C-Class was the BMW 3 Series and Infiniti G. Not surprisingly, each of these were the most common models in their respective lineups. Los Angeles and Miami are also prime hotspots for luxury car thefts, according to the Detroit News report.
While getting your car stolen is pretty awful, there was one inspiring statistic compiled by the NICB - the average recovery rate across the board was 84 percent, with the Cadillac CTS getting recovered 91 percent of the time.
Cadillac sales chief fired over policy violation
Sun, 21 Jul 2013Amidst a good year for Cadillac, which is experiencing higher sales gains than any other US brand this year, the US sales chief has been fired over a policy violation, Automotive News reports.
The sales chief, Chase Hawkins, "has left effective immediately," GM spokesman David Caldwell told Automotive News. Caldwell went on to say that Hawkins' replacement would be chosen soon.
Hawkins became the US sales chief in June 2012, and before that was the regional sales director for Cadillac in the Northeast US, overseeing 168 dealerships.
