I just purchased this '76 Cadillac Sedan deVille today about 30 miles from John Royark. It is an Arizona car with 86,000 actual miles, new tires, new battery, new alternator, etc., etc. Its only real issue is that, as with so many AZ cars, the door panels are crispy. Not a hint of rust anywhere. This car runs and drives beautifully.
Now here's where I feal guilty. I bought it to part out. I have been looking for a pair of rust-free fenders for my '75 Superior 54". I could not begin to buy the parts that I need off of this car elsewhere for what I paid for this complete car. Nice red dash, nice red tilt/tele steering wheel/column, perfect front clip and quarter panels, etc. It only squats a little in the rear because the previous(kid) owner has a huge wooden speaker box in the trunk(which fills the trunk). I gladly let him keep that!.
Am I wrong in tearing this car apart?
