1950s–1960s
1957 Cadillac Eldorado
1 of only 1,800 produced — the height of '50s Cadillac elegance
About This Vehicle
' The 1957 through 1960 models had distinct bodyshells and were the most expensive models Cadillac offered during those years. Finished in the beautiful colorway of Elysian Green, this Cadillac Eldorado Convertible is a lovely example from the third generation of Eldorados. Sporting classic fins in the rear, it rides on optional Saber-spoke wheels with classic wide white wall tires.
Equipped with power steering, power brakes, power windows, and an AM radio, it is powered by a 365 cubic-inch 325-horsepower V-8 engine topped by a famous gold 'batwing' air cleaner. In 2022, this Cadillac's engine was partially rebuilt at a cost of just below $10,000, resulting in it being in prime condition to drive. Since arriving at the Grand Rapids Classics Auto Museum, this Eldorado has been looked after with the utmost care and remains in largely original condition.
