These two look like they could be for 1974-1976 de Villes or maybe for 1970-1973 de Villes.  They appear very close to my 76 CDV but they could apply to the other years.  I would bet they are for any one of those years, 70-76. EAM

The latch design for sure fits early 70's.    Was the Eldo and C car skirt the same?  For some reason I am thinking the eldo ones were wider on the short (rear) end but its been a while since I looked at them laying on the ground.
73 Eldo convert w/FiTech EFI, over 30 years of ownership and counting
Somewhat recently deceased daily drivers, 80 Eldo Diesel & 90 CDV
And other assorted stuff I keep buying for some reason

the 69 ,70 had their own unique skirt design and those will not fit 69 or 70 maybe 71 to 76 but those ones are 75,76 as can be seen by the double stainless trim strips

Those are 71-74 el dorado skirts, Deville/Fleetwood skirts don't have that sharp crown line.

Just to clear up some misinformation above, all 71-76 deville fleetwood skirts DO have double molding on the front edge. 71-73 also have a single molding on the rear edge. All will fit 71-76 but you would need to add or remove that rear molding.
