I would say the worst thing to look for would be rust, on the frame and the floors. Convertibles are much worse. Every car I have seen seems to have some form...
Stay away from anything rusty. If you are talking about surface rust, that's one thing. If it needs floors patched, or more serious structural work, it's NOT...
Check the drive axles - Torn or loose boots (especially the outers) are fairly common. They can be repaired / replaced, though. Also, the rears of the front...
I've got a 1971 convertible with rusty undercarriage for sale in Kansas City. However, it would likely need more work than you describe ("one that is good...

Are you a member of the National Cadillac club? If so, you could probably use their registry to locate someone to look at the car for you. My rule of thumb on...

Excellent idea re the National Cadillac Club. Thanks. I've been passively looking in my area for a few months but never did an intense local search. I am about...
Hi 76 Eldo...your car sounds like a creampuff in superb condition. I bet it's beautiful. But it's not for me most likely because A: I don't have that Lincoln...

Hello all, Approximately 4 years / 10000 miles ago I had Uniroyal Radial A/S's installed on my 76 Eldo. Shortly after this I replaced all the tie-rods, pitman,...
The big FWD Eldos (as well as their cousin Toronados) do tend to chew up front tires. They're big, relatively powerful and, most importantly, _FWD_. Lesser...
