My 1976 Cadillac Eldorado convertible. 21 feet long, 7 feet wide, 500 cubic inch engine. So smooth-riding, it was like cruising on your living room couch. I sold my four-year-old 1994 F-250, and bought this. The car was 22 years old when I bought it, and had maybe 40,000 miles on it. Everything worked, even the air conditioning. The horn was really something. There were maybe four horns wired together, to give a rich, full, "Move, you peasants" sound.
Old men love it, because they remember when this was a new model.
Young kids love it, because they have never seen anything like it.
I was driving one day, when a little girl, maybe 10 years old, saw me.
She stared, and then yelled out "Rock Me Baybee !"
I almost wrecked, I was laughing so hard.
I loved that car, and the top and windows were always down, except when it was actively raining.
This car is the namesake of the blog.
