Why might a '86 Cadillac still not start sometimes after changing out the alternator and getting a new battery?

If it doesn't turn over and acts like a dead battery, take both battery cables off and clean both ends. Make sure there is a good ground between the engine and the body. If it still does it, go to Auto Zone and have them check the alt and battery for free. How about a starter problem ??
