Description
Lot #1051 - In '53 the Eldorado Convertible was a very expensive Luxury automobile as the listing price was $7,750. A quite rare and sought after automobile as there were only 532 Eldorado convertibles built for 1953. The featured cllassic is #188/532 as documented on the cowl tag. Numered rare cars are in high demand and short supply. The car was purchased as an actual mile car. The odometer reads: 53,587 although being sold as "mileage exempt." One must really consider over the past 52 years how many have disappeared for various reasons: rusted out, wrecked, destroyed etc.. The rule of thumb would be that only 10 - 20% exist today and how many become available for purchase... This fine automobile is equipped nicely: 331 c.i. V8 with 210 horsepower, power steering for ease of driving, power windows, original AM radio, hydra-matic transmission, power top the fabric replaced with the German harts-cloth to add the perfect elegant touch, black and white leather interior compliment the jet black exterior finish, glass windshield washer jar and gold plated emblems. Opportunities to own this type of a rare piece of precious metal do not come every day. This fine Cadillac is a real investment that you can enjoy parading around. Own a real American icon.
