The top of the line were the Eldorados. Developed from Cadillacs fantastic Motorama cars of only a few years before they were exotic luxurious and priced to place them within the reach of only a few discriminating buyers who would accept only the very best and wanted to be recognized for their style and means. The four-door hardtop Eldorado Brougham set the tone but it was matched in drop-top form by the Eldorado Biarritz convertible uniquely styled with a rounded tail and distinct shark-style fins. The Eldorado Biarritz cost $7286 more than $2000 more than a Series 62 convertible putting them in the stratosphere of Fifties automobiles yet Cadillac found buyers for 1800 of them. Loaded with every imaginable power assist and convenience they are the aristocrats of American automobiles a quality and distinctiveness that is evident in this 1957 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz convertible.

It is a #s matching car.and Yes I would agree a 1 of a KIND in all of the 1957's that i have touched this is a first for me. 2 The car is super solid no rust 3 We drive it around 3 It is really unmolested other then where it was shortened 4 No interior since the final design was for buckets. i have spoken to a top notch interior company with many award Cars under them. Quote from Owner (What a car Never seen one of these) 5 Only selling because i bought a 1958 Eldorado or this would not be for sale for any price until it was done. 6 It is a true convertible and it is a factory A/C car that is all in tact. The car was stored indoors for over 30 years hence the fantastic condition The metal work is pretty impressive and would cost at least $20k plus today to duplicate The guys had some serious vision back then but since custom mods are now here now is the time to grab this rare piece. le.
