1960 Cadillac Eldorado

This 1960 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz convertible is finished in Champagne over beige leather upholstery. It features a bullet-style chrome grille and tail panel along with a beige power-operated convertible top and a rigid three-piece parade boot. On the inside, the front bucket seats and rear bench are trimmed in beige leather and accompanied by air conditioning, cruise control, a push-button AM/FM radio, a clock, and an automatic headlight dimmer. Power is from a 390ci V8 and shifting is through a Hydra-Matic four-speed automatic transmission. Additional equipment includes power steering, power-assisted drum brakes, and 15″ steel wheels with full covers. This Biarritz was purchased by the owner in 2023 and subsequent service included overhauling the suspension and installing a stainless steel exhaust system. This Cadillac is now offered on behalf of the owner with spare parts and a clean Texas title. The car was repainted in the factory Champagne at some point and is equipped with a beige soft top and a rigid three-piece parade boot. Additional equipment includes Quad headlights, stacked taillamps, rear fender skirts, tail fins, and a bullet-style chrome grille and tail panel. Spare body seals and convertible top seals are included in the sale. Steel 15″ wheels wear chrome covers with Cadillac crests and were mounted with Auburn Deluxe whitewall tires in 2023. The car is equipped with power steering, and braking is handled by power-assisted drums at all four corners. Service in 2023 included replacing the front and rear coil springs, front and rear shocks, upper and lower ball joints, upper and lower control arm shafts, stabilizer links, outer tie rod ends, sway bar bushings, idler arm, pitman arm, front suspension bumpers, rear trailing arm bushings, upper control arm bushings, and rear center ball joint. Spare brake lines are included in the sale. The front bucket and rear bench seats are trimmed in beige leather that extends to the door panels. Further equipment includes an Autronic Eye automatic headlight dimmer, cruise control, air conditioning, a heater, an electric trunk release, and power windows. The seller notes that one of the power windows was repaired in preparation for the sale. The two-spoke steering wheel fronts a horizontal-sweep 120-mph speedometer and gauges for coolant temperature and fuel level. The five-digit odometer shows 75k miles, approximately 300 of which were added under current ownership. The seller notes that the speedometer cable is noisy. The 390ci V8 was factory rated at 345 horsepower and 435 lb-ft of torque. Power is delivered to the rear wheels through a Hydra-Matic four-speed automatic transmission. A stainless steel exhaust system was installed in 2023. The underside has been dry-ice blasted and laser-cleaned, and photos are provided in the gallery. The seller notes rust in the inner rear wheel wells that continues into the trunk.
