1976 Cadillac DeVille review from North America
"A classic mid-seventies land yacht"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had to replace numerous electrical items and switches.
I have rebuilt the carburetor.
It is developing a small oil leak.
General comments?
This car is a classic mid-seventies Coupe De Ville pimp-mobile that rides wonderfully smooth.
While nostalgic and very large at almost 3 tons, it is a pleasure to drive anywhere.
It is certainly not economical to operate with its 501 cubic inch engine.
