I am Listing this car here on ebay on behalf of its true owner. He is the third owner, and has been since 1999. The car has been off the road since 2003.
Some of the HISTORY:
This car was purchased new in a dealership in Ft. Myers Florida in 1975. The car was purchased as an investment and stored in a warehouse until 1984. In 1988 This car was sold to the second owner In Garfield New Jersey. The car was purchased at that time with 4,300 Miles. Since then it was utilized until early 1994 and it was parked in storage until 1998 when it was purchased by the third and current registered owner. The car at that point was in need of restoration due to lack of use and being exposed to some elements. in 1999-2000 It was restored with new paint (oem color), and it was brought up to driving conditions. (New fluids, wires, plugs ect.) It was registered and kept in a garage in the owners home. It was taken off the road in 2003 and sat some months inside a garage and some outside the garage. I was contacted by the owner in order to get it ready to be sold last year in 2012. I have had this car in my possession ever since. The owner and I have put a new top on the car (due to 1-2 inch tear on the back of the top) and I have had it in storage on my property for almost a year my garage. (I have a clean clear NJ title) I have driven the car sporadically and have put some work into it while it has been in my possession, I fixed a few minor glitches (electrical) and It received a new convertible top in 2012. The car is ALL ORIGNAL I have not replaced anything besides the top, engine oil, and brakes (rear). It starts runs and drives very well!! Like a cadillac should. The miles on the Cadillac read 12,568. The odometer works, However I do not know if they are supposed to be 12K or 112K. I am told by the owner, it had 8900 when he bought it in 1999. Sorry for any inconvenience! They are believed to be true miles however I cannot verify!!
Up for sale is this Beautiful 1976 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible. Let me start by saying that pictures dont do it justice. It truly looks better in person than in the pictures.

Playboy reveals its 2013 Cars of the Year
Thu, 20 Dec 2012Vaunted men's magazine Playboy knows that its readers are nearly as interested in cars as they are in the female anatomy... sorry, we thought we could write that with a straight face. Anyway, the buff-book does occasionally fill some of its spreads with sexy metal, to accent all the rest of the sexiness.
To wit, the magazine has unveiled its feature on the 2013 Cars of the Year. Without giving us much in the way of criteria for the awards, nor a clear framing of the categories ("Responsible Ride" is a particularly challenging concept, especially when you consider that the Mazdaspeed3 was the winner), Playboy has nevertheless highlighted what we assume to be it's favorite 12 or 13 (depending on how you count) cars from the 2013 model year.
Headlining the class is the Porsche 911, which Playboy writers single out for having "remarkable electronic voodoo." BMW M5 is named "Slickest Sports Sedan" though the Cadillac ATS then follows on because "we couldn't resist giving the new Caddy a shout-out." The rest of the picks are pretty conventional (save, perhaps, the Honda Fit EV as "Ace Electric"), even if the categories and methodology are fairly wonky. Cruise through or gallery for a taste or check out the full list, here. The site is safe for work, and you can legitimately (this time) say that you were reading it for the articles.
Cadillac toned down ATS Coupe design due to customer feedback [w/poll]
Tue, 02 Sep 2014Automakers always face a difficult decision when it comes to styling their cars. Design them too blandly and nobody will get excited about them. But style them too aggressively and they'll often end up turning off potential buyers.
Cadillac, for its part, is no stranger to aggressive design, but when it came to the new ATS Coupe, it elected to tone things down a bit. Speaking with The Detroit News in a wide-ranging interview, Cadillac design director Bob Boniface revealed that the original design for its compact coupe was edgier - closer to that of the CTS Coupe - with a wedgier profile, a more steeply raked beltline and a more severe grille. But potential customers surveyed in clinics apparently didn't like it. They found it looked heavy, inefficient and not fun to drive. So Boniface and his team literally went back to the drawing board and "took as much visual mass out of the car as [they] could." The resulting coupe, while handsome, looks far more similar to its four-door companion than did Cadillac's CTS.
What do you think, does the new ATS Coupe look just right, or is it too conservative? Voice your opinion in our quick online poll.
2015 Cadillac ATS Coupe priced from $37,995*
Thu, 15 May 2014Cadillac has released pricing details on its new-for-2014 ATS Coupe. The new model, which will be available with buyer's choice of a 2.0-liter, turbocharged four-cylinder or a 3.6-liter V6 (the ATS Sedan's base 2.5 won't be making the trip) can be had with optional all-wheel-drive in place of the standard rear-wheel setup, while customers can also snag a six-speed manual or six-speed auto.
Prices start at $37,995, which represents a $2,900 premium over the 2014 ATS Sedan (pricing on the 2015 four-door isn't available yet) with the same 2.0-liter engine. Still, the ATS Coupe starts at just over $2,500 less than a base BMW 428i, which is also less powerful and offers less standard equipment. The Caddy is also less costly than the Mercedes-Benz C250 Coupe, although only by about $200. It's even cheaper than the Audi A5, which starts at $38,105, but that model includes all-wheel drive as standard. It should be noted that these prices are without their respective destination charges (*$995 for the Caddy, $925 each for the BMW and the Mercedes and $895 for the Audi).
Unfortunately, Cadillac hasn't released any additional pricing information beyond what we have here, so we can't tell you how much things like all-wheel drive, an automatic transmission or the 321-horsepower V6 will cost. That makes it difficult to figure out just how reasonable the ATS Coupe will be relative to its challengers, but so far, the value equation looks to be in the car's favor. When those full details roll in, though, you know where to look. Scroll down for the official press release from Cadillac.
