Wait a minute, I thought, Biarritz name was dropped in early '60 and since this model was named just Eldorado Convertible? |

Was still used in 80s, but I do not know for the 70s... /vehicle_10344-Cadillac-Eldorado-Biarritz-1980.html |

Yes the term "Biarritz" was also used in the 70's only for the super luxury Eldorados. Belive me, if I know one thing then this, because it's my dream car! |

I do some search,and yes, Biarritz returned in '76 as top of line model... Sorry for disturbance. |

1978 Fleetwood Eldordo (not Biarritz - the "Biarritz" was a custom Eldorado model in 1978) |

It's just an Eldorado. Fleetwood was its own model. |

And it's certainly not a '78, since the last convertible was built in '76 and that's exactly what it is. |

No, there are "Fleetwood Eldorado" models (I do not know what is the model on the picture above, though, but I guess that MrCadillac knows what he says ) |

Ok, You convinced me I guess. I thought I would know. But 2 things are still worrying me. 1. Is it right, that the last convertibles were made in 1976? 2. Why does this car have a 1978 grille??? |
◊ 2006-04-11 04:03 |
That is correct, that no American manufacturer sold a convertible from 1977 until whenever Chrysler launched the LeBaron in the 80's (unless you count the Jeep CJ). As for the grill, customization? |

1.All '67-'78 Eldos was "Fleetwood Eldorado" so they all must be renamed. 2.As for Biarritz, check out this site: http://www.100megsfree4.com/cadillac/cad1970/cad76e.htm |

I just had a closer look: The designation "Fleetwood Eldorado" first appeared in 1965 and lasted until 1975. From 1976 onwards, they were just Eldorados again. P.S.: This is indeed a Fleetwood Eldorado, just because it's a 1975. -- Last edit: 2008-12-29 00:10:29 |
