That thing looks like it was stored in bubble wrap for 40 years. Absolutely beautiful car!
Back in the day when owning a Cadillac really meant something
It still does.. not going along with the unfortunate trend of buying an import.
@@VinylToVideo Most New Cadillac sales come from Asian countries like China, so for them, the Cadillac is an import
Looking at it makes you think back to watching Let's Make A Deal & hearing Jay Stewart hawking it & Casa de Cadillac in Sherman Oaks CA!!!

James Sawyer i thought it was Monty Hall on that show. No?

You could spot a Cadillac 4 blocks away,nowadays I can't tell car makes if my life depended on it 👍
Same car different badges brother... In the 21st century Attention to detail has gone out the window ..
What a beauty ! 76 was the last of the Big Boy Caddy's !! I bought one in 85 from a one owner senior couple ! Kept it for seven years before my growing family forced sale !! Had some great cruise's in that rig ! Had the big 500 GM engine so it wasn't too good on the MPGs ! About 17 mpg on the freeway and maybe 10 mpg city driving !!! But with the 24 gallon gas tank you could usually do Spokane to Seattle without refueling but that was cutting it close !! One finger steering and LEANING on that armrest !!!
I normally hate these clunkers from this era of Cadillacs, but this thing is beautiful. I remember these growing up and I still can't get over how big they were.
This is what I see in my mind when someone says "Cadillac" to me! I miss the '70's so much!
🐇
One of the best I've seen in years!
I like how a Supertramp song from the 70s came on when you switched on the radio. :)
very appropriate for the time, I was thinking the same thing :)
Sweet ride so much detail and a real trunk not the tiny trunks you get with the small plastic crap toy cars you spend a bundle on today.
How many times did the guy say "absolutely beautiful car"? It is very nice. I so long for the days when a car was really a car. 1976 was the last year for the GM really large cars. Most cars were downsized for the 1977 model year. The Cadillac Eldorado, Oldsmobile Toronado and Buick Rivera went on two more years as large cars then we're downsized for the 1979 model years. The 1st generation of the downsized large cars are still pretty big by 2019 standards. I enjoyed the video. Nice the go back down memory lane a see what cars used to be like. There's nothing special about today's cars. Just a bunch of plastic parts with a lot of electronic gadgets.
If you were standing in front of it like I was you would agree all 13 times I said it lol
The downsized versions proved highly successful, though, and they were quite large by today's standards, as you aptly pointed out. I had a 77 an 81 Olds 98, and a 78 Buick Electra Limited. Riding in them was very enjoyable, and they swallowed a lot of cargo, too. Very good-looking cars, too. I agree that today's cars are undistinguished (and indistinguishable!), and full of plastic and unnecessary electronics.
My first car was a 76 Coupe like this on charcoal grey. Passed to me from my dad.
Hey Anthony, I realize this video it's 2 years ago, but I am seeing it for the first time, and I am happy that you shared it with me. I had a 68 Firebird convertible, just a 350 2 barrel carb, but it had a tired looking factory green metallic that alot of the Pontiac's did back in the day. This is in 76, and I saw a Caddy like this at a dealership, loved the Firethorn Red Metallic color with the White Landau top, got my paint guys to change that Firebird to exactly that color, I remember that the paint was pricey, but after we painted it, put a new white top on it, that car popped, but I always wanted to have a Caddy like those colors, thank you for putting a smile on my face, I got let go from my job of 30 years yesterday and I was feeling low, you perked me up a little, thanks!
a guy gave me this car in 1986 for painting his house. i got it painted the above color and drove it for a year on all my dates. women loved it. then my father borrowed it and dented it trying to pull into a gated parking lot. then the electrics started to go, the transmission fluid seemed to drain out when parked. a black guy i worked with had to have it, so i sold it to him for $850. it was a really great car, with miscellaneous problems. i was hardly driving it at the time, old triumph motorcycles, a van, and my pickup replaced it.
My Mom had this Very Car but it was a Maroon Color with white leather Interior. Beautiful Car. Rode so Nice!
My first car was a 1976 Fleetwood Brougham sixty special and it had every available option for that year including the fuel injection system, Trackmaster anti-lock brakes, and the air cushion restraint system. That was quite a car especially for the mid-70s. I bought it in 1987 and drove it into the mid-90s and the fuel injection system, mine was all still original, never gave me any problems
BEAUTIFUL 76 ANTHONY THANK YOU FOR YOUR GREAT VIDEO STANDARD OF.THE WORLD FOR SURE
This will always be my kind of Cadillac. I may have been too young to drive when this was out, but I still hold a place in my heart for it!
one word- GORGEOUS!!
One of the last truly great American cars.
Unbelievably beautiful, could not be more beautiful or in better condition!!!
I just wish he commented on how absolutely beautiful the car is. Otherwise, great video.
It’s wicked beautiful! 😂
He did comment on that. Did you watch the video?
MegaBakerdude *Sarcasm*
I love the ship to shore radio!
Clean example of the spirit of 76’
Wow!!! The trunk looks big enough to store a mattress.
John Dyer I do airport transportation and in the business we call that a mafia trunk! “Ya could fit ‘tree’ (3) bodies in ‘dare’! “
Wow true luxury! That is one gorgeous car!!
What a beauty last of the real Cadillacs!
Stunning vehicle
I had the same car back in the day and i got my local body shop to paint halfway up white......this caddy is Immaculate!
Beautiful Cadillac Anthony Last of true coupe DeVille in my opinion nice presentation
that's cleant! I remember washing cars like that to make my prom money when I was a teenager. love how they drove and rode!
You washed that? Talk about work, lol!
Sir you have beautiful Cadillacs
Such a classic....I have a 2008 CTS and I bought it new and still love it...has a little over 30,000 miles...I don't drive as much as when I was a young guy. Cadillac is still a fine car....and still stylishly designed. You have a nice one!! Good luck on selling it....you'll sell it !! 👍 👍
A dream car!
That hood alone probably weighs more than most modern cars! I remember when these cars were all over the place. Finding one now, especially in that condition, is a very big deal. Cadillac lost its way about 20 years ago and has not come out with anything stately since.
Cadillac had some really nice cars 20 years ago, a lot better than the wannabe import trash they make now. actually lost their way when they started shrinking their cars and giving them hard seats, rock hard suspensions, and tight handling. I wouldn't touch a Caddy made after the 2011 DTS.
@@hakeemsd70m All American cars are import wannabes now, and that's why they are pretty much garbage.
@@paulparoma Yes indeed. But you're totally right about this classic 76 Coupe deVille! So much ornate detail and chrome, I'm a big chrome bumpers, to the chrome trim, to the hood ornament, to the wire wheels, a beautiful car! This car is a work of art. Today's cars are soulless appliances in comparison.
@@hakeemsd70m I know. They are so unremarkable today and catering to a completely different type of buyer. American luxury cars used to be about comfort, grandeur and style, made for people who wanted exactly that. Today, luxury is all about "performance and handling" as if we have more room on the roads for all that nonsense. And style? Everything has to be aggressive, not elegant. Pretty pathetic, isn't it?
1992 was the last big body v8 rwd cadillac then Northstar hell staarted
Stunning!
Firethorn Red. So that’s what it’s called. I saw a 74 sedan DeVille with the same color. Very nice.
Gorgeous I love that ❤️ Love the CB radio
Absolutely beautiful, I love cadillacs, this a great a example, beautiful condition no flaws from what I can tell.
I know it is not exactly the same thing, but I had a 1977 Sedan De Ville as a daily driver in 2006-2008.
You'd be styling in dis. Breaker Breaker, any Smokies on up ahead? 😆
If they went back to this bodystyle it'd probably sell pretty well
That is absolutely beautiful!
Now that is a real Cadi!!!!!
A perfect example of the final year of the full size Coupe & Sedan De Ville/ Fleetwood Brougham Cadillac's. Extremely comfortable seating, glove like leather. Today's cars look like clones of the toy cars from Japan and Germany.
The 4 dr is my favorite car. Awesome coupe though.
i'm heart broken i've looked for one like this , I really want a convertible but would've gladly bought this one !
Legendary King of the Road
So Fresh So Clean 1976 Coupe Deville Cadillac Red and White top.⭐💰👑💯
ME & THIS CADDY BOTH WERE BORN IN 1976 !(70'S BABIES)
….where's Uncle Junior???...he gotta see this ride!!...A BEAUTY!!!...….
Anthony you know how to torture Cadillac lovers right ? Lol looking at this beauty is torture I want it ! I was driving around NY in one of these in 1979 spectacular car.
This is just like the Mayor's car from Jaws, except for the headlamps. Even the color is the same.
I was born in 1977. How in the word does it have such low mileage. It's looks beautiful
Very nice & well taken care of, plus seems not driven much since new with very, very low miles on a car this old. I like. I was 9 years when this car was around & now 52 & still around.
Holy shit she isn't even broken in yet.
Nice ride my mom used to own one same color interior and exterior too. I miss the big block power in it .
POWER HOUSE! before GM went crazy !
Made my day to see this!
Do you find these cars in a garage driven only in the summer or what? its amazing
Amazing!
Beautiful condition, these were the real Caddies... the panel gaps are a bit scary by modern standards though ;-)
DM to think that we accepted panel gaps as normal, and today we see it and go "this is terrible" how things change.🤔
Aaron Lopez The body gaps were necessary considering the amount of body flex that was normal to luxury size cars of this time period.
@@aaronlopez3585 If you're talking about gaps near the bumpers, they were on special springs so would go inside you hit something so the gap was necessary.
I had one that was chocolate brown with camel interior. Loved that car so much!
Why did you get rid of it?
I am not worthy... I am not worthy!!!! Dude I love this car....
My favorite year Caddy
I have a dark blue 74 Fleetwood Brougham d'Elegance that's in just as good a condition little more miles mine's got 36,000 but it is an awesome car and I will never part with it my son will get it
GORGEOUS
Nice! I have a 1963 Coupe Deville.
Beautiful land yacht 500 V8 probably burned tank full of gas while this was filmed
V8 Power Agreed! With a 500 cid V8 it would pass anything but a gas station!
The 500 V8 would get better gas mileage than the 460 Ford engine
@@bohemialite6371 It should had got about 10+ mpg on hwy
@@jaybee2344 I own one : get a little bit more , but have to burn a higher grade gas 89 - 91 octane !
@@thenov1944 My 75 Fleetwood 9 passenger sedan gave 12 mpg city, driven gently.
Super clean car I had one just like it in green with a white top 76 and that CB radio is aftermarket because mine was built into the radio and on the antenna it had the built-in CB antenna! But that's a awesome car!
Back when you could smoke in Your lac
Why would you smoke in such a beautiful car
Stunning Caddy !
It has '74 or '75 horizontal tail lights and backup lights. The '76 model had chrome outlines around the lenses.
I did notice. The fillers were replaced.
That is beautiful!!!! A rolling living room lol
Clean car Anthony👍
Where is the main mast??? This car is an absolute BOAT! But don't get me wrong. I love it.
My favorite car ever is the 76 Sedan deville
You need to specify the engine cubic inches...472...500, etc. My eyes are not able to see tiny sticker.
Looks like the tail lights are from a 1975 Cadillac. 1076 had Crome around the horizontal lights
Interesting exterior color
Where you find all those beauties..? Super dream cars.. Love all.. In special the Pontiac Parisienne
They find me somehow. I think I am a magnet for them really.
الله يبارك لصاحب السياره 😍اعشق الاكلاسك وخاصه الأمريكي 😉
Feel like a pimp just watching this lol, got to love the red leather 👌
where are Chrome bezels around the taillights
Good catch
Previous Owner replaced the fillers, so I don't know where they went.
I noticed that too.
Fuel injection in these big Cadillacs during the 70s was very rare. I believe it is a Bosch EFI system.
It was some Bosch components, TPS, Fuel pump (bosch), married to an analog Bendix ECU (analog fuel injection). Used a coolant , and MAT sensor which were interchangable. Injectors were Bendix too as I recall. It was a mixture of components and the Caddies I owned with it none of them really ran that good , and got awful fuel mileage to boot. Lots of rough running, and you would just be chasing an endless loop with that fuel injection system. Also it ESC (electronic spark control) which further made a mess of things on those cars. I did have on Caddie that ran strong though with it, and it was a 1979 Seville with the olds 350 - last version which had also added an o2 sensor for improved MPG. I was lucky to get 24 on some long cruising road trips in that car - which was a fluke. The very last Caddy I had with this system, was a 1979 Eldorado , and I actually took the time to convert to run on a more modern-ish ECU , injectors and TPS which was Megasquirt EFI. That car ran remarkable but 18 MPG was about all it could swing on highway runs. But it sure ran strong.
nicer look than the Eldorado in my opinion
Motor City Baby!
This car is a classic cathedral on wheels and modern cars are like the stupid glass bubbles modernists call architecture these days.
Still a beautiful land yacht
1976 had chrome around horizontal lights in back
Wow...rare find
Nice Thank You for posting.
Ernie McCracken had this car in King PIN.
Where ever this Cadillac was stored they should have placed the 57 Plymouth instead of burying it.
Stunning! Wonder what happened to the original floor mats and trash receptacle?
Trash receptacle was accidentally left behind for the filming 😂 original mats were awol, so these were from stock interiors
Beautiful..... I love it. How much did you sell it for? I would have bought it.
Big Enos & little Enos brah 👍
Its a 1975, not 1976. Rear brake lights in '75 were non-chrome surround; '76 were chrome surround. I had the '76 CoupeDeVille with 500cid. [top speed was only 11mph shy of the Dodge w/440cid police package]. I had 4 different Cadillacs in the day. Those hubcaps came out in 1977; 1975 brake light surround; 1977 hubcaps;1976 car. Nice car... but something does not add up.
Cool car
Did it have the 501 motor or 472?
centervilletn it has the 8.2 liter 500 cubic inch Cadillac V8. Last year for it. The last year for the 472 ci or 7.7 liter was 1974. Then in 1977 - 1979 the big Cadillacs had the 7.0 liter 425 ci Cadillac V8.
By attributing this car to me is priceless
Bullshit
