The first Cadillac Eldorado was available only as a convertible with crome wire wheels standard and the most powerful engine in the industry, 210 hp.
Although each had to be practically handmade by Cadillac, these were the production cars, and more than 500 were manufactured selling at $7,750 a copy. Aimed at a younger buyer than the traditional Cadillac customer , the car introduced the wraparound windshield and had unique sliding handle door openings.
