1956 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Convertible
This Eldorado was with the same owner from May 2001 to 2016, and over the 2001 to 2002 timeframe, this car was professionally and beautifully restored by Harbor Auto Restorations in Pompano Beach. It is presented in factory Alpine White with an Ivory, power-operated soft-top and red and white leather interior. It is unsurprising that this fine car (Antique Automobile Club of America Class: 29 Car #: W15003) has a show pedigree that is commensurate with its presentation. Among the awards are an AACA First Junior in Hiawassee, Georgia (June 1, 2002); Cadillac and LaSalle Club Grand National First Primary (100 of 100 points earned), and AACA Grand National Senior, New Bern, (May 15, 2010).
It is powered by a smooth 365ci, 305hp V8 engine that features two Carter four-barrel carburetors and the factory “batwing” air cleaner. Among the many standard features that the Biarritz exhibits, you will find numerous courtesy lights, remote driver's side mirror, power windows, power six-way front seat, power steering and power brakes. Among the optional accessories on this particular car is the quite rare and very desirable air conditioning (code K). It is quite worthy in noting that it is reported that less than 20 similar cars also had the factory air option in 1956.
