Competitors included theLincoln Mark series and the lower-priced Buick Riviera and Oldsmobile Toronado. The Eldorado was at or near the top of the Cadillac line during early model years. When GM'sfull-size cars were redesigned for 1971, the heavier-looking Eldorado regained both a convertible model and its fender skirts. Although the door glass on all Eldorados remained frameless, the hardtop rear quarter windows were deleted, replaced by a fixed "opera window" in the widened "C"pillar. With model year 1973 the Eldorado was removed from the Fleetwood series and reestablished as its own series. This generation of Eldorados produced between 1971 and 1978 were sometimes customized as seen in films like Dolemite, Superfly, Highwaymen, The Mack, Willie Dynamite, and even the James Bond film Live and Let Die. 1971 was the first year since 1966 that a Cadillac bore the Eldorado Convertible name. Convertible model would continue through 1976, and became the last American-made drop top model (for a few years). Image Gallery About Vanguard Motor Sales started 25 years ago as a part time hobby.
