Aviator glasses, sleeves rolled up three inches, hair slicked back, arm on the door, cigar, 'green onions' song playing loud. Enjoying the fruits of a seven figure net worth. And finally, that smirk you give yourself as you turn the wheel cruising around a bend slow😏.
I love it! Those old Eldorados really had style and an unmistakable road presence. Not like the crap that Cadillac is building today. Thanks for sharing with us!
This has to be one of the best ride alongs I've seen on UA-cam . This guy has a very classy and informative way of describing this car!
Just picked one up yesterday. So excited to bring it back to it's full glory! Seeing this video made me want it even more
“You can ride around with the heat on and the top down” F yeah man!!! That’s my type of dude!!!!
This drive along made me buy this car!!!
beautiful car with plenty of power. My friends parents had one in high school, he would drive it to all the band practices, and it was a great ride.
I had a 1969 Eldorado.. 472 CI.. 7.7 ltr.(375 hp 535flb torque) FWD... rode so nice.. Factory light purple/pink.. Wisteria.. was a limited GM color back then.. Driving it down the street when the Lexus craze came about.. I would get the nods even from those owners.. Just a Majestic car well made... but 8mpg city 14-16mph hwy and no parking became an issue.. You do need space to own and drive these.. Today's parking spaces are too short and too narrow .. You can't open the doors with a car parked next to you.. I remember once after a snow storm, people were digging out their 4x4s..I cleared the snow off the car.put it in drive and plowed right out..If I only had the storage space..
I had a 1956 like the white Eldo. The standing joke was that it would pass anything on the road except a filling station. About 8 MPG in town. Gas was cheap then. My wife said I had to plan at least a block ahead to turn a corner. BIG BLUE how can we forget you?
Man. I am going to get a Convertible Eldorado. I have restored two Broughams. But That Eldorado is King Cadillac baby. Cool video. Thanks for posting.
Ken and I used to ride up to Canada in my 64 Buick Riveria in 1967. Maybe, just maybe I rubbed off on him alittle. As for riding around in the winter with the top down, we would ride in Cliff Elliott's 1958 Chevy Impala freezing our fannies off, but that at the time in 1967 was fun. Ken and I would drive to Ohio so we could buy beer at the Twlight Bar. Those were the days. He was a damn good drummer. I will miss him and have often thought of Ken for a number of years and the good times we had. He drove a nice car there. Rudy Warren
I love and have had many Eldos and have always dreamed of having one of these beasts with a snow plow and a set of Goodyear M&S Eagles in Chicago plowing the streets with the top down and please don't forget to mount the yellow tinted rotating gum ball machine to the center top of the windshield frame !
Great video, love the way it way shot and edited. You guys should do more owner videos like this. It's great to hear the owners stories and let them show off their cars. I'm sure it wouldn't be hard to find owners willing to show off their cars, I would sign up. Keep up the great work!
+Robert Morales Very impressed with the smoothness, especially the follow shots taken from a moving vehicle. The cameraman must have had some sort of stabilizer.
heartpursuer Yeah, probably using a glidecam or a 3 axis gimbal.
heartpursuer and some suction cup car mounts
Real beauty!
Flawless
I have a 1976 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible, also white. Mine has black interior! LOVE this car!
***** well good thing you're not my boyfriend...I'd have to leave you at home and cruise without you...since you don't like my car!
Definitely, top down,all windows down
Of course, anyone who expects this to be a cornering car misses the whole point.
It's meant for comfy, relaxed cruising, where part of the pleasure of the trip is the ride.
A lovely way to drive to, say, a vacation in the Florida Keys in December, in the middle of that long bridge of U.S. 1 with the top down, the sun up, and your lady by your side.
Absolutely. People today just don't get that driving shouldn't be about getting from point A to point B as quickly as possible. Take your time and enjoy the ride!
Well now Detroit makes 6,000+ pound SUV's to drive one 150 - 200 pound person around! At least this car has STYLE and gobs of GLAM!!😋
Great Cadillac owner. Props.
Super nice vid for a détournement.
Love it
Nice ! Def wanted to hear the engine too.
I have the same car... Red on red interior white convertible top. 55,000 miles on her. My dream car.
I have the exact same car in red!
I have a 75 eldo in red conv,wite interior.
That's a beauty
You do look Cool
Whats the name of this song?
Crazy to think that this cars is as long and weighs almost as much as a new Cadillac Escalade. And it has only two doors.
The best an beautifullest Cadillac Convertibele ever build!!!!!!!!!!
:-)

+Albrecht8000 your welcome and yes 500 Cubic inches V8 3 speed auto front wheels drive land yatch
Nah, they’re nice but I’d say they best looking Cadillac would be the 1966 Eldorado. Clean lines, great shape, great interior with minimum vinyl and plastic and lots of chrome placed well. Not too gaudy.
@@LaDivinaLover I think the 1966 Eldorado has REAL wood veneer inside! And heated seats were an option in 1966! That was a great year. The only strange thing about the '66 models, is the lower level DeVille convertible had this fabulous thick wide chrome molding over the doors and B pillar window while the Eldorado did not. Usually the Eldorado model had the more bling!
Beautiful. Joe Foerster Tom Bombaci

what happened to cars
Asian cars being reliable, !!CHEAP!!, and compact. Now that Asian cars aren’t cheap anymore American manufacturers don’t want to take a chance with great styling and comfort. It’s all about “performance and power”.
How big are those white walls 2inch? I’d go with 3 1/2
"This video is about Untitled Project"? What's that supposed to mean?
Jason Carpp It means our web editor forgot to hit "save" when she typed in the video description.
***** I figured that. Hopefully in future videos, they'll do that. Sweet looking Cadillac Eldorado. I've never owned one, but I've always admired them. :)
Does anyone want to buy mine 75 white red interior white convertible top 40 some thousand miles. Supposedly owned by man who put dance floor in Saturday night fever movie. Please let me know. Mike. Cape Coral, FL.
It would be cool to put some Longhorns on this car and ride
The 67s were cool but after that the Eldorado got ugly.
