I'm a sucker for a boat. My dad had a 66 Lincoln Continental convertible with suicide doors. He was a machine salesman and machine shop owner. I remember taking my drivers exam in a 73 Lincoln Continental, it's the one I learned to drive in. We took it into empty parking lots and thats where I learned how to park it. He said if I could park it, back it into a spot, I was ready to take my exam. I passed my exam the first time. I own a 2016 Lincoln MKZ, nice car, but nothing like driving the old Lincolns. Brought back some memories on this one Randy!! Thanks! By the way, I'm all for watching a rebuild on this one, the Caddies have a huge following! I think you can bring this one back Randy...go for it!

From a distance, the Cadillac looks good, and I like the black exterior and white leather interior. However, the interior is in rough shape, and the exterior could use some work. However, with some work into the car, I'm sure it will look better. Even though you may not have the money or time, changing the door panels and front seats, getting a pair of taillights, and patch up the exterior scratches, will make this Caddy look slick.

There hasn’t been a video that I haven’t enjoyed watching from your channel Randy. This one in particular was very entertaining and enjoyable, especially with Monkey Wrench Mike. That old boat hasn’t been on the road for who knows how long, it just needs some TLC, something that it hasn’t experienced in a long time. This car is worth fighting for and I’m glad to see you aren’t throwing in the towel on it, this car really deserves a second chance.

My brother bought one of those from an estate sale many years ago. It was metallic pea green with a white top. He drove the car to Juarez and had the interior redone with red leather. We nicknamed the car "The Watermelon". The ride was cushy, the torque abundant, and the fuel consumption comparable to a small ship.

In 1976 my parents bought a brand new Eldorado. White with a 2 tone blue and white interior. Absolutely gorgeous car, the leather was baby butt smooth, and smelled so nice. It drove beautifully, was quicker than you would think. We had it 6 years it was very reliable, and so comfortable to drive and travel in. We drove it form Southern California to Wilmington North Carolina 3 times and never an issue. Its to bad you never knew these cars when NEW. Dont jump to conclusions that things are this or that, you're not familiar with the car and are making some mistakes. You dont press on the CENTER of the steering wheel to blow the horn, you press on the rubber area to blow it. Radio may work, but wont with antenna down. You guys are definitely doing DOUG DEMURO negative saracsm to the max. Good luck with it.

The turn signal and high light indicators on the fenders are fiber optics from the light itself. Kind of cool tech for the day. I had a ‘73 with over 200k miles that looked like it had maybe 10k on it. You used to be able to find those “rubber” bumper spacers for them in the classified section in Hemmings. There are a lot of NOS parts for them.

Wow! My second car I bought in 1990 was a 76 Cadillac Eldorado coupe with that 500 V8. It had no problem easily going up Cajon pass at 90 MPG. If I remember right, I got 14 MPG on the highway. Being 'only '15 years old at the time, it was in pretty good shape other than the paint which was garbage. I took a auto body and paint class and painted it white. Sold ir 2 years later and bought an 84 Ramcharger 4x4

Randy, get a new flasher resistor/relay. With a good battery the old one might even unstick (it's a cheap part, or used to be) itself however I think the headlights not shutting off could be the twilight sentinel. (I enjoyed a '75 Fleetwood in 1984 and this puppy is an Eldo!). Body and frame looks fantastic and this would make great with the proper vinyl wrap!
