1960 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Convertible

The Eldorado was near the top of the Cadillac line during the early part of its existence. It was part of Cadillac from 1953 to 2002 and is the longest-running American personal luxury car. The original 1953 Eldorado convertible and Eldorado Brougham models of 1957-1960 were the most expensive models that Cadillac offered during those years.

The 1960 Cadillacs had smoother, more restrained styling than the earlier cars. Changes included a full-width grille, the elimination of pointed front bumper guards, restrained application of chrome trim, lower tailfins with oval-shaped nacelles, and front fender-mounted directional indicator lamps. Externally, the Biarritz convertible had bright body sill highlights that extended across the lower edge of fender skirts and Eldorado lettering on the sides of the front fenders, just behind the headlamps. Standard equipment included power brakes, power steering, automatic transmission, dual backup lamps, windshield wipers, two-speed wipers, wheel discs, outside rearview mirror, vanity mirror, oil filter, power windows, six-way power seats, heater, fog lamps, Eldorado engine, remote control trunk lock, radio with antenna and rear speaker, power vent windows, air suspension, electric door locks, license frames, and five whitewall tires.

This car is an unrestored example, which had been in the current owner's collection since 2004.
