Cadillac Eldorado Seville Background: One can only imagine the stress for the Cadillac design team after the 1959 debuted to the public. Although it is considered one of the most desired cars among...Cadillac collectors today, the 1959 model was extremely audacious for potential car buyers during the day! Its wild charisma wasnt for everyone, and may have turned many longtime Cadillac enthusiasts from showrooms. The answer in 1960 was a milder, more subdued design to woe traditional buyers back. They could not have been timelier in that decision, but sadly,1960 would mark the end of the Eldorado Seville Hardtop Coupe, tri-carburetion engines, and air ride suspension. The 1960 top of the line Eldorado models now rivals several model series as one of the most desirable Cadillacs to own today! Only 1,075 Eldorado Seville Hardtop Coupes would find garages.

The massive amounts of chrome and stainless bright work are all in excellent condition! Upon arrival to the St. Louis Car Museum & Sales, we elected to rebuild the brakes with new brake master cylinder, all wheel cylinders, brake fluid & front shoes; new valve cover gaskets, replaced the engine oil & filter, restored the HVAC dash vacuum system & converted the factory air conditioning system to R134a to be fully functional blowing cold air; replaced the transmission output shaft seal, new speedometer adapter o-ring, new transmission pan gasket & transmission fluids; front wheel oil seals, idler arm, bracket & bushings, lubed u-joints; new hood insulation, and then give this Cadillac a complete carburetor tune up and complete detailing from top to bottom. This elective service was only due to the car being used very infrequently this past couple of years and now starts, runs, and drives with total ease! Quite the head turner as well! It remains absolutely solid underneath with outstanding panel fitment and gaps! Modifications do include upgraded audio system with Pioneer CD player and upgraded speakers, along with a tachometer located in the factory dash clock position.
