CAR HISTORY:
This car came with no documentation. All the information and history for the car is what I was told by the previous owner. The extent of his video and picture documentation was enough for me. I'm a car guy. I purchased this car completely impetuously this past June with the intent of just keeping it for hte summer. Always wanted one. Unfortunately I live in New York City and quickly realized that storing and dealing with a 20 foot car was going to suck all the joy out if its ownership. I've put about 1,000 miles on the car. It has been sitting garaged in New Jersey since late September. Originally I wanted to hang on to it until 2016 when it would be a 40 year anniversary, but it's just too much of a hassle. The follks who've been letting me store the car, sold their house, and it's just become too much of a pain in the a**. The following is the history of the car as told to me by the previous owner. This car was purchased new in
a dealership in Ft. Myers Florida in 1975. In 1988 the car was sold to
the second owner In Garfield, New Jersey. It was utilized until early 1994
and it was parked in storage until 1998 when it was purchased by the third
and previous registered owner, a member of the North Jersey Cadillac Club (sticker still on car). The car at that point was in need of some refreshing. In
1999-2000 It was restored with new paint (oem color, Calumet Cream), and it was brought up to
driving conditions. New fluids, wires, plugs etc. It was registered and
kept in a garage in the owners home. Since 2003 the car has had limited use and has largely been garaged by the owner at his house. In preparation for getting the car ready for sale, the previous owner, put a new top
on the car and fixed a few minor electrical glitches. The car
is ALL ORIGINAL. 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 car read 13,468.
Ok, so that's from the previous owner, and this is from me. I do not believe the car is 13000 miles. It only has a 5 digit odometer, which reads 13,468, but i believe its actually 113,468. I believe that the vast majority of the '76 Eldorado Convertibles for sale on EBay are 100,000+ miles cars and not the super low mileage cars their owners misrepresent them to be. If that was the case it would seem that all 14,000 convertibles made in '76, were all immediately put away and never driven. I believe the odometer has not been tempered with or that it has rolled over more than once. In addition to the work done by the owner, i have relocated and rewired the convertible switch, replaced the convertible motor and replaced the muffler. Other than that the car is good to go. The 1,000 or so miles that I've put on it this summer were exclusively highway miles. I took it on a 350 mile round trip. The car ran like a champ and cruised at 75-80 effortlessly. I also had a chance to take the car on a private race track. Hey when do you get a chance to take a 76 Caddy on a 9 turn, banked, 1.5 mile track? I figured I had this chance and took it. Video shows car in action. I was incredibly surprised as to the responsiveness of the steering and how well this boat cornered You can see 100+ photos (taken by previous owner) and 3 videos of the car. The first video is the car on the race track. The other two were video provided by the previous owner. The previous owner took incredible care to document the car and, to be honest, did a much better job than i could have. Thats why I used his pictures, videos and description.

The car is very clean and quite nice for its age. The interior is
complete and is ALL original, with the original parts buttons,
leather, carpets and radio. The carpets and panels are all intact. All of the
glass is original and in great condition. The car does show its age a bit in
the leather, (has faded a bit, and look old. see pictures) but I believe can be reconditioned with a little elbow grease and Leather Honey. This car has a new convertible top, new convertible motor, recent oil, coolant and brake fluids, new rear brakes
(calipers), new filters. This car starts, runs and drives GREAT. It is very
smooth and quiet. The car idles smoothly,
has a new muffler, and the carburetor has been tuned. The
transmission shifts well, tires are in excellent condition, the
A/C blows but needs to be charged. The AC has been converted to 134A Refrigerant. The windows all
work however they need to be adjusted (not sure how to do this) the rear
windows especially. The AM/FM stereo system works well!! It is OEM and automatic search functions work. The heat works great. The Power Seats motor works (you can hear it) but does not move the seat front and back. I'm 6 feet, and its perfect for me. The
interior lights are 100%, The windshield wipers and window washers work
well, but the wipers need to be replaced. The speedometer and all of the warning lamps are also up to par. The
floor pans and undercarriage is SOLID. Under the hood, it looks good, someone
painted a few things (i.e the inner fender wells, fire wall and radiator
support. The hood liner is OEM and everything is good but does show
some age. This car also has a new battery. The chrome looks
great, has only one spot where it could use attention (see pictures). The lights
and all electronics work. The trunk is self closing and it works. It has
all of the jacks and spare tire with covers. Its a complete car. This car is
NOT museum quality, but it is a bargain at the reserve price which I WILL NOT
disclose. It is Ready to be driven and put on the road. YOU WILL NOT BE
DISAPPOINTED..

With their chrome grilles and oversized wheels, it's hard not to notice a Cadillac these days. But this one is even more blingtastic on account of the 23.75-karat gold-leaf bodywork.
The 1931 Cadillac Golfer's Drop Head Coupé is said to have belonged to the inimitable performer Liberace, who didn't just have it covered in gold - he also had the exterior door handles plated in silver and the inside handles in 24-karat gold as well. It's also got a white leather interior and headlights that - well ahead of their time (if you'll pardon us, Mr. Tucker) - pivot with the steering wheel. All that bling is powered by a 5.7-liter V8 mated to a three-speed automatic transmission that pales in comparison to the seven, eight and even nine-speed gearboxes appearing on luxury sedans today.
The project was undertaken over the course of three years in the 1970s by one Jack Smith from Kansas. Smith (if that was his real name) sold it at auction in 1975, and it was most recently displayed for 12 years at a museum in Germany which claimed it was Liberace's own. The car is now going up for sale by Barons' at the Sandown Park horse racing track in Surrey, England, on September 17, when bidding starts at 85,000 pounds - equivalent to over $130,000 at today's rates.

General Motors has announced yet another sprawling recall campaign, with six separate elements covering 717,950 vehicles on US roads. At this point in 2014, it's starting to seem like there are more days with a GM recall than without. Perhaps most troubling about this latest volley, though, is that every vehicle is from the past few years, indicating that GM's quality woes may not be limited to pre-bankruptcy vehicles.
The largest element of this latest campaign covers 414,333 units, and includes the 2011 to 2012 Chevrolet Camaro, 2010 to 2012 Chevy Equinox, GMC Terrain and Cadillac SRX and the 2011 to 2012 Buick Regal and LaCrosse. Only vehicles with powered, height-adjustable seats are covered. In these particular cars and crossovers, the bolt that secures the height adjuster actuator may loosen of its own accord and in some cases fall out completely. If this happens, the seats will be able to move both up and down. GM claims the vehicles are safe to drive, provided drivers don't vertically adjust their seats. This particular issue has caused one crash and three injuries.

When reporting on recalls, Autoblog generally tries to focus on the US market. However, a recent campaign in Canada seems important enough to be worth mentioning because it could eventually affect American drivers. General Motors is repairing 17,481 Canadian examples of the Cadillac SRX from the 2010-2015 model years because of the possibility of a loose nut in the rear suspension. For the moment, the automaker hasn't yet announced whether the CUV in the US would require a similar campaign.
The notice was dated September 18, 2014, on the website for Transport Canada, similar to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration in the US. It says, "the rear suspension toe link jam nuts" might not have been sufficiency tightened, which could allow a rear wheel to turn "inboard or outboard" while driving. If this happens, it could cause a sudden change in handling. Canadian Cadillac dealers are inspecting the parts and replacing the toe link if necessary.
This campaign isn't listed on the GM's running recall tally from September, which includes exported models, but it does list four other campaigns for the SRX this year - three in this range of years and one for the 2004-2006 model. Autoblog reached out to the company to ask about the possibility of this recall expanding to the US and were told "We have not publicly announced US recalls" for the issues affecting the SRX. The New York Times was given a similar quote. Scroll down to read the notice from Transport Canada.
