Vehicle Description
Draft, Subject to Change
A rare, classic 1950s luxury car complete with modern running gear,
a combination found only in your dreams or is there really such a
unicorn out there?
Come to MotoeXotica Classic Cars to see this 1957 Cadillac Eldorado
Brougham Custom Sedan for yourself.
Dressed in Maroon with a brushed stainless-steel roof, this car's
paint and trim are in overall excellent condition. The car's glass
panels and lights look great. The bodywork is straight and solid,
the engine bay is extremely tidy, the cargo area is clean and the
chrome bumpers fit tightly to the body.
GM boss Harley Earl and designer Ed Glowacke combined features from
the best GM show cars in this vehicle, including the panoramic
windshield, the pillarless four-door hardtop and suicide rear door
configuration and a brushed stainless roof.
Besides a roof trimmed in brushed stainless, the car had
self-leveling air suspension. The exterior ornamentation included
wide, polished lower rear quarter beauty panels extending along the
rocker sills and rectangularly sculptured side body "cove"
highlighted with five horizontal windsplits on the rear doors.
Tailfin styling treatments followed the Eldorado pattern.
This custom Cadillac rolls on BFGoodrich Silvertown white stripe
radials, size 215/65R16 at every corner. Each one is mounted to a
forged aluminum wheel topped with a factory wire wheel cover. The
wheels are in excellent shape while the tires are in very good
condition. Underneath the body is an X-frame that was developed to
work the industry's first production self-leveling air-ride
suspension, in conjunction with America's first production
four-link rear suspension.
Under the hood is a modern LS-series V-8 engine from Cadillac
V-series sedan with electric cooling fan. The motor is backed by a
four-speed automatic transmission. Driver convenience features are
plentiful - vintage air-conditioning, power disc/drum brakes, power
steering, power windows including the ventipanes, power locks and
power sideview mirrors. It also had the first six-way power seats
with automatic two-position "memory, automatic trunk opener and
closer, high-pressure cooling system, polarized sun visors,
electric antenna and a dual heating system. Other unique features
included an automatic starter with restart function, E-Z-Eye glass,
Autronic Eye, drum-type electric clock and forged aluminum
wheels.
Inside, is a custom interior, trimmed in black and coated fabric.
The front and rear bench seats, complete with fold-down center
armrest, are in excellent order. The black mouton, or lambskin,
carpet shimmers. The two-spoke steering wheel, black-and-white
inner door panels and maroon metal dashboard look fantastic, the
last part replaced with a Dakota Digital gauge system. There's a
Kicker Bluetooth stereo hidden in the trunk, with controls on the
transmission tunned and under-dash speakers.
Every Eldorado Fleetwood Brougham was delivered with a full vanity
set, including metal drink tumblers and magnetic tray in the glove
box, and many other luxury accessories, including an Evans
leather-trimmed cigarette case and vanity kit containing a lipstick
holder, ladies' powder puff with powder, comb, beveled mirror, coin
holder, matching leather notebook, gold mechanical pencil and
atomizer filled with Arpege Extrait De Lanvin perfume. There are
even dual cupholders in front.
