The 1976 Cadillac Eldorado is best known as the ultimate "land
yacht" and carries a unique piece of American automotive history.
The 1976 convertible models are highly coveted by collectors
because General Motors heavily marketed them as "the last American
convertible". Because of this, it is highly sought after as a piece
of cultural and automotive history.Specifications & features-
