Well maintained Cadillac Eldorado Convertible in original condition
For many, the years from 1960 to 1969 represent the pinnacle of Cadillac design.
The design excesses of the late 1950s gave way to clean lines and a more thoughtful, conservative design. The success was resounding and with record sales achieved, there was no doubt as to which luxury car would be America’s favourite.
Comfort and luxury along with sophisticated technology were at the forefront. The interior, with its bench seats and abundance of space and freedom, evokes an almost genuine living room flair. In addition to a standard stereo radio system with automatic aerial, there is fully automatic air conditioning, cruise control, hydraulic power steering, electric seat adjustment, heated seats, electric windows and automatic level control on the rear axle. The Cadillacs of the late 1960s are increasingly delighting collectors despite the thirsty V8 engine and the sometimes somewhat complex engineering. The 1965 Eldorado was still only offered as a convertible. Internally, it was a sub-series of the Fleetwood, so that it was occasionally referred to as the “Fleetwood Eldorado Convertible”. On German roads, luxurious Cadillacs were always exotic.
