The Tallest Cadillac Tail Fins Ever
Eldorado is a French resort town on the Bay of Biscayne, north of the Spanish border. The Eldorado Biarritz Convertible, introduced in 1953, was the top-of-the-line prestige vehicle in the Cadillac line.

The 1959 Cadillac was an all-new car and its towering tailfins have made this flamboyant Caddy one of the best-known icons of the 1950's. The Eldorado added to this sensational shape with unique sweeping chrome trim that decorated the side of the car.

The 1959 Biarritz was a limited-production car - only 1,320 were built. This Eldorado is one of 99 with the optional front bucket seats. Powertrain specifications include a 390 cubic-inch, 345 horsepower V8 with triple two-barrel carburetors and a four-speed Hydra-Matic automatic transmission.
