A 1962 Cadillac had, automatic, headlight dimmer electric eye . It sat on the dash On the floor a button auto tune radio too

My Dad had one. This was after his Maserati Quatro Porte phase, a car that burned to the ground in our driveway!

Eldorado convertibles were amazing looking machines. If I ever get rich I'll be looking for one. I wonder if anyone ever got more than 10 mpg.

perfect example why caddies were one step abov lincolns

Is it for sale?

I believe it was also available with ABS and an airbag system, both as options. I remember seeing the maintenance details in a Chiltons or Motor repair manual from ‘67

I recall when these came out- definitely the best looking cars on the road that year.

got one sitting in the driveway right now, next to an AMC Cherokee

Amazing they had high-beams figured out in 60's. What happened to today's cars/drivers

The 1967 Eldorado was so cool that it was chosen one of the original Hot Wheels!

GIGITTY!

Beautiful car!

'57 Imperial & '62 Lincoln would each run away and hide from the '67 Eldo with its utter junk sealed beams hiding in shame under 50 pounds of machinery. At least '57 Imperial & '62 Lincoln could take proper high intensity Euro-bulb replacements that made high speed on a country road safer. Hotrod Lincoln. Demo Derby Imperial. Eldo? Old Banker Buggy.

Alpine and Tiger were built on the Commercial Commer Cob van and Hillman Husky estate chassis and bulkhead which was a shorter wheelbase version of the Hillman Minx (Audax) . The sports car had extensive additional strengthening added to compensate for the removal of the roof

Cool looking, but at 18'5", who has the garage space? And parking this beast is fun. I've driven one.

While these cars do look nice, it’s worth noting that the first cars were SUVs.

Coolest Cadillac Ever ... ?

The largest wings and fins in automotive history were added under Bill Mitchell's guidance and leadership in 1959.

Cadillac Toronado

In comparison to British automotive designs from the same era, this is a stunning vehicle. Stone-age blobs versus "cars of the future". But which ones are truly the most modestly functional and affordable?

The Cadillac Light Sentinel started in 1962.

I had one these back in the 70’s. I never thought much of it and rode it hard. I ended up entering it into a crash up derby and the guy said I shouldn’t enter my car cause it was nice. I didn’t care - I just wanted to drink beer and have a good time. My car wasn’t in too good a shape after that derby but I had a good time drinking beer and watching it die.

One of the most stunning and clean design of the time. Not sure about being meant also to be a sporty car, the ride of these cars I heard is not that great, the rear suspension a bit of a let down. But it is an iconic car never the less. To my knowledge, the GMC's Mobile home used the Olds 455 front wheel drive power train.

copy of the olds toronado which was first in 1966

A magnificent American automobile, it has aged gracefully.

My Mom had a '73 Eldorado, red with a white landau half top, and red leather interior. It was a sweet sweet car.

When I see these monstrosities, I think they were designed by Exxon. Seriously, what were these "designers" thinking?

After all that, what is the engine size

Elegant sophistication built to last! Love it!! I realize that mpg is not relevant to the enjoyment of such a beauty, but I am very curious. What’s the mpg? 8?

Compare to a Buick tornado, Pontiac gran prix

In a Mercedes trunk of the era, had a medical kit

Why was the switch-😮pitch transmission created

In 67 I wanna bet the Chrysler Newport had diamond cut crisp lines 1:19

The system to automatically dim the high beams (autronic eye) was actually introduced FIFTEEN years earlier in 1952, and the signal seeking radio was introduced even earlier, in 1951.

When GM really was the mark of excellence.

I simply love that brutalist style. The Lincoln Town Coupe, the Monaco, the Imperial... I was there and I know bloody full well what quantitatively horrid rattletraps they were, but damned if I don't just love that "Armored luxo-barge" look. You felt like the captain of a torpedo boat when you were at the helm of those things. And it really was boat-like. ZERO road-feel, smooth, slow, linear acceleration, smooth, slow, linear braking. Waterbed floaty suspension. They even had a burble-blurble boaty exhaust note. The 74 Lincoln Town Coupe in particular had a very "Atomic Submarine" vibe. Greenish gauges set in deep sockets, and a very weird/cool speedometer that looked like a reactor core temperature gauge. Not a needle. It was a solid red bar. Hard to describe. (It was a cylinder with a diagonal red stripe refracted through a thick half-cylinder prism to make it look more like a giant sideways thermometer. Coolest thing ever)

Remember going to the Cadillac dealer with my Dad to pick up his 68 Eldorado. Always loved that car. Don't know why I didn't get one until 3 years ago.

1967 was the first year of Cadillac's front wheel drive and it was the worse car I ever bought. I have had over 10 caddys in my life and I traded it back in to Peter Fuller's Cadillac in Boston three weeks after I took it off the showroom floor......Bad Bad design.. NEVER BUY THE FIRST YEAR OF A NEW IDEA FROM ANY CAR MANUFACTURER.....

Had one of these in1970.What a marvelous auto.Major style and faster than you would think

I remember those cars, it was great.

A favorite of pimps that had them pimped out with furry seats, gansta white walls, diamond accent window, t.v. antenna...etc.

Cadillac forever.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

She's a beauty!

I slept in the back when my dad went to the horse races in LA. an absolute dream car. could still be built today if there weren't any greenies.

'67's are very specific.

Oh god how I hate all those insipid looking SUV's these days. Today's Cadillacs and Lincolns just are not inspiring. Now THIS is a land yacht.

If I could get it into my 4 car garage, I'd buy one.

@6:12....the 1967 Ford Thunderbird, a much better looking fast coupe, had a tilt telescopic, and slide away, steering column. I owned one. A much more Buck Rogers interior as well.

These El Dorado's were really beautiful but i think the Toronado was a smidge better looking.

Do a side by side on these two cars. 73’Monte carlo 67 Caddy diab
