Lot #331.1 - With a mere 65,000 original miles, pride of ownership beams from this always rust-free and restored "new generation" Eldorado. Famous General Motors styling chief Bill Mitchell was the inspiration of this totally new model with its razor-edged coupe styling, hide-away headlights, front wheel drive and brisk handling, marked it as a major departure from Cadillac tradition. An instant hit with buyers that included very prominent business persons, notable Las Vegas mob members, casino personal, as well as famous Hollywood actors and celebrities including members of the Rat Pack. Showered by overwhelming media attention, this new Eldorado was labeled as, "The Worlds's Finest Luxury Car". An immediate compliment to the Cadillac badge with a base price at the time significantly greater to the base price of a Corvette. This impeccable first year new body Eldorado is powered by the original and one-year only 429/340hp V8 engine and TH400 automatic transmission. Finished in the rare and factory correct shade of Sherwood Green with original black leather interior, this example is also fully loaded with all available complimenting convenience options. Not only a stunning model, but rarely seen available in this condition. No disappointments, this special Cadillac is assured to continue to pride its future owners and collectors. Documented with a copy of the General Motors Build Sheet and General Motors Heritage vehicle identification decoding certificate.
