| The 1976 Cadillac Eldorado convertible is an prime example of the the last American full-size convertible. The '76 is easily the best and most collectible out of the 7th generation Cadillac Eldorados.The Eldorado underwent major modifications the previous year, so the '76 received just minor styling changes. It was given rectangular headlamps, a new grill, revised tail lamp lenses, full rear wheel openings, and overall crisper lines. It resulted in a smoother and more aerodynamic appearance, reminiscent of the '67 and '70 models: two milestones in Cadillac styling. It was widely advertised as "the last American convertible" when the '76 was announced as the final year for Cadillac's convertible line.By popular demand, Cadillac reintroduced the Eldorado convertible for the 1984 model year, but it was a completely different car. It had nowhere near the stature and majesty of the '76, and as a result, the 1976 has remained a true testament to the end of an era.Its length overall is 18.675 ft., and curb weight tipped the scales at 5400 lbs. The term "land yacht" was coined specifically for this vehicle. The Cadillac Eldorado used front-wheel drive, so GM could install longitudinally mounted V8 engines, and a highly modified Turbo Hydra-Matic automatic transmission sent power to the front wheels. This effectively eliminated torque steer, a huge accomplishment considering the Eldorado's torquey V8 engine. | |
