I dare say you found a Series 75 one . I ain't a limo guy but if I was I would go for it .Yeah, it's as rare as hen's tooth .As far as I know, black limos are worth more

definitely buy it, the 75 series are always the rarest Cadillac's of their perspective years. Depending on on good of a condition it is, go to manheimgold.com If it the front bench is leather and it has the partition, its a limo. If it has a regular bench and no partition it is a nine passenger sedan which is my favorite.

Condition is everything with these cars. Although Series 75 sedans are rare, they aren't worth a lot as there is a very limited market for them. The best one on earth wouldn't fetch more than $12K, and that's on a very good day. If it's been sitting for a while, it likely needs work and has the usual rust issues on the front fenders behind the front wheelwells and around the rear window, especially if it has a vinyl top. Without pics to go on or knowing how desperate the seller is to get rid of it, I'd say start at $1500 and absolutely go no higher than $3000, unless it's an absolute jewel, which I doubt. Good luck and post some pics so we can get an idea of what we're talking about.

I paid 400 for mine, but its kinda rough. needed body work and paint and stuff. now it needs new headliner and carpet and exhaust. Probably going to spend 1000 bucks to make it livable. honestly If its been in a field I wouldnt pay more than 1000 for it. unless you can jump in it and fire it up and drive it over 100 miles.
