Early in the ‘76 model year, Cadillac announced the end of the Eldorado convertible. On April 21, 1976, Cadillac PR made a gushing press release about the end of the line for the last American production convertible. With a typo in its second paragraph “employe,” the three-page letter announced a run of 200 final Eldorado convertibles.
