The 1960 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz represents one of the most
exclusive open-top American luxury cars of its era, combining a
refined evolution of Cadillacs iconic tailfin design with advanced
power features and the 390-cid, 345-horsepower V8. With only 1,280
examples produced, the Eldorado Biarritz is a highly sought-after
model for collectors. Originally restored in the early 1990s, this
Eldorado Biarritz was subsequently displayed at the Blackhawk
Museum in California before being purchased by the current owner in
2005. This Cadillac was purchased as a birthday gift and "Nelli
Bell" has been well loved through the years by the whole family.
Over the past two decades, the Cadillac has been carefully
serviced, maintained and driven regularly. The Eldorado Biarritz
has 60,000 miles, is in strong mechanical condition and is a great
fit for enthusiasts who enjoy driving these wonderful Cadillacs.
The exterior of the Eldorado Biarritz is finished in Sienna Rose
Metallic that has a smooth and bright presentation. The paint
exhibits remarkably consistent lacquer checking that gives it a
distinctive, almost deliberate character while still presenting
well. The prominent chrome bumpers, bullet-style front and rear
grille accents, and Cadillac badging are in overall excellent
condition. The iconic 1960 tailfins retain crisp definition with
integrated taillights that showcase the design shift from the 1959
styling. Ivory white convertible top and rear fender skirts
complement the sleek profile, and the 15-inch wheels with
Cadillac-crest covers are fitted with newer Firestone Deluxe
Champion wide whitewall tires. This Eldorado is a beautiful example
that is perfect for frequent driving and to present at local shows.
The interior features white leather seating for six, with a six-way
power-adjustable front bench and a rear bench in similarly
preserved condition. The front seating surfaces show creasing and
seam separation near the drivers side, with cracking on the
seatback pockets. The door panel leather remains in good condition.
Dark Rose carpeting is in good overall condition with some wear
consistent with age and normal use. The two-spoke steering wheel is
finished in white that does have some cracks. The factory
instrumentation is in good working condition with power windows,
power vents, power antenna, factory air conditioning and
aftermarket radio system. This is an Eldorado that is in good
overall condition with some cosmetic imperfections. The Eldorado
starts right up, has a smooth yet powerful feel, provides a strong
braking response and is overall a wonderful driver! Powered by its
original 390-cubic-inch V8 engine (stamped with 60E041206), the
Eldorado Biarritz produces a factory-rated 345 horsepower paired
with a 4-speed Hydra-Matic transmission. With 430 lb-ft of torque,
a 060 time of 10.8 seconds, and a 124-mph top speed, the model
offered notable performance for its class. This Cadillac has a
Holly Sniper electronic fuel injection with a keychain battery cut
off. This Cadillac has been regularly serviced under current
ownership and has a clean safety inspection. This Eldorado is ready
to be enjoyed! The Cadillac comes with a custom pink car cover,
service record documentation and build records. For more
