    '57 Eldorado Brougham, the most beautiful Cadillac ever! IMO!!!

    Truly the most beautiful Cadillac ever built.

      rp carrier Yes. I fully agree. Even better than the 58. Clean lines, not drowned in chrome. Just enough. Perfect balance.

    WOW! I swear of all my years of loving cars, I have never seen a Cadillac this beautiful. I was born one year before this debuted and I just saw this model today for the first time!!! Where TF have I been? I am going to pursue one of these babies until I get one. Maybe. We'll see. Hey! Even my wife would love this one.

    When I see cars like this, it makes me wonder what happened to the auto industry,especially the American auto industry. This Caddy represents pure art when a Cadillac meant you were the top of the line! Heck a Rolls as wonderful as they were couldn't match this at the time period. This is as good as it gets pure Americana. Wow just absolutely amazing.

    ...one of the most stunning expressions of the Harley Earle design group at GM.
    It's suicide 4-door design would later be mimicked by the Lincoln/Mercury Division at Ford for the 1961-69 Lincoln Continentals.
    This was also the first American car to feature an auto trunk-pulldown latching mechanism;and a feature that was shared with Imperial by Chrysler; a brushed stainless steel roof...
    This lovely and original example will certainly excite a number of high-end collectors worldwide...just anazing!!

A masterpiece. 58 offered the Executive model which had a stainless steel roof and only came in midnight blue and the reg model like the one in this video.

It Had a 365 cid engine with 2, 4 barrel wcfb carburetors, that's when gas was still. $0.19 cents a gallon !!!, We cruised Sunset and Hollywood blvds on the weekends and hung out at Tiny Naylors drive in, at Sunset and LaBrea.

      I thought so at first also because of the dual headlights. But then I remembered that the Eldorado models often had features of the next year's common models. I liked the final placement on the 57, on following years, the fins looked like an afterthought and just added at the last minute. I was a junior in high school in 57 and I remember fondly seeing one.

      @dj33036 8 лет назад +1

      +michael cerza It's probably not a matter of being set too high. Cars with carburetors had an automatic choke and as the engine warmed up the rpm"s would climb. You had to goose the gas pedal a little and the engine would idle down to normal. I think they just started it up and let her run on high idle. You could damage the transmission and engine if you were to drop it in drive at this high an rpm.
