1959 Cadillac Eldorado Seville

T he twin rocket ship taillights help to tell it all. Here was a car inspired by technology, but destined to be one of the most luxurious American automobiles of its time. The 1959 Cadillac Eldorado Seville was an upper shelf cruiser, with enough power and amenities to drive any well-to-do out of this world.

Although the original cost was lofty, at almost $7,500, there was plenty of wow that went with it. Standard equipment included air suspension, electric door locks, fog lights, heater, power vent windows, power windows, radio with a rear-mounted speaker, remotely operated trunk lid and six-way power front seat.

Powered by a 345-horsepower engine, which made use of a 390 cubic engine and four-barrel carburetor, the Eldorado Seville cruised effortlessly, in the city and highway. The use of air suspension was a clever idea, but was frequently a problem. On the other hand, the very, very cool lines of this Cadillac, especially those razor-sharp taillights and miniature rockets, and the curvaceous outline of the streamlined body, are captivating.

Despite all it had going for it, the Eldorado Seville, or Biarritz as it was called in convertible form, when new did not sell as well as you would think. That has changed considerably in the classic car market. Because enthusiasts are crazy about these wildly finned Cadillacs, expect to pay anywhere from $45,000 and up for a top-notch Eldorado Seville.
