Lou I can't get enough of these 50's / 60's Caddy's. Champaigne over red is stunning. This era is the pinnacle for GM styling and this Eldorado with all of these options and features proves why. I'm going to have to watch this video a couple of times just to take it all in. Keep bringing us these awesome videos Lou!!
This 1960 Cadillac Eldorado with that Champaigne paint looks like the epithet of elegance! With clean and soft lines, from the large chrome grille on the front with those protruding eyebrows and double headlights, to the large boat-style tail with the beautiful fins, which even house lights, and its direction indicators positioned vertically in separate chrome pieces. How beautiful its interior looked in red, with all its chrome panel pieces and parts catching the sunlight. Excellent, as always, the collection of manuals and brochures preserved from the period with their beautiful art and photographs (special mention for the trunk closing electronically). The final beautiful and relaxing tour, with those landscapes as a backdrop; In addition, the vehicle felt very smooth, since practically nothing could be heard, giving the impression of walking on a cloud on wheels! Congratulations to Mr McConnaughay, for taking care of this magnificent car for almost 50 years! Best regards, Lou!
Hi Jaime, High praise for the looks of this car :-) Enjoy reading what you see. You're right, the tour was relaxing because you couldn't feel or hear anything. My pleasure sharing with you, Lou

If only we had cars like this these days! Shoo! Can you imagine what fun we are all missing? All we have these days, are boring ole SUV's, vans & trucks, so dull, so utilitarian. Why, oh why??????
Wow! That is a MAGNIFICENT car! Cadillacs were once very special car with design and elegance. That is just a wonderful flowing design with toned down fins and wonderful proportions. The color combination is stunning. Just when you think Lou can't find a better car, it finds a BETTER car! Awesome work, Lou!
I agree with the Cadillac designer who said they got it right with the '60. The '59 is really something, but the '60 is in my mind one of the most beautifully designed cars in history. Right there with the '41 Lincoln. Thank you Lou and John!
Gorgeous...always preferred the cleaner 60 over the overwrought 59...that delicate outline of chrome around the body side is truly elegant. Really rich color combo, buckets too. Nice to see one still on air...i have a '58 Fleetwood originally on air but currently on springs...i have all the takeoff parts tho to retro fit back to air, so encouraging to see this one where it actually works.

That stainless “C” moulding is so thin and designed perfectly. A designer “won” the argument to include that trim. The condition is just right for me since driving it is the thrill. Nice review again and thanks once again.❤
What a beautiful car. Love the Champagne paint. Not such a fan of the red interior...maybe that's because my 1990 had Champagne and an interior to match. But this is still beautiful. The 1990 trunk was electronic too. Had to get used to that. Loved it. OMG - the ride was fantastic. This was when Cadillac was still the Standard of the World. They lost it, in my opinion...but these oldies sure proved that point. Smooth, beautiful Cadillac!!!
Hi, Lou! The license plate on this beauty says it all! It's bound to elicit lots of oohs and aahs! Why, even the red-winged blackbirds are giving a shout out! I think it's also a perfect example of why Cadillac was regarded as the "standard of the world". John is so fortunate to have been able to enjoy it for so many years! Many thanks to you and John for popping out the Champagne and taking us along on this classic luxury ride!
Its bulbous! It’s loong! It’s heavy! BUT it’s a Cadillac! AND an Eldorado Biarritz! Beautiful car. Yes, I like the 1960 styling better than 1959 too. Thank you very much Lou.
What a gorgeous Cadillac! You certainly will be noticed when you arrive in this one. I love the color, the fins, and the chrome. And what a surprise it was for me to see those 3x2 carbs under hood. It's classy from every angle. Thanks, Lou!
It’s the Cadillac of automobiles! I love those big fins with the rocket taillights on the 59 but the 60 was a little more subdued. A little more classy in my opinion. I love them both.
Personally, Nothing beats a survivor....esp a Caddy with working Bags. The 1960 has a much more refined look that the 59. A beautiful Car...Thanks John and Lou.
I like the '60 and its tail fins the best. Such a great iconic car, an American classic and the Champaigne color looks beautiful. Nice video gents thank you.
Hi Leroy, Happy to read you and your Grandson "Love the old Caddy" :-) Hope he's behind the wheel of the right one for him soon. Blessings received. God bless you too. You're welcome, Lou

Harley Earl's final design for Cadillac, with Chuck Jordan and Bill MItchell. Absolutely fantastic car! The 1959-60 Cadillacs were called "Spaceships on wheels" back in the day.
So, so nice! My friend had a blue four door, came by and we took a cruise, I even got to drive it. It was so smooth! He dropped me off and headed for home, at the first stoplight someone hit him head-on and it was totaled. The middle of the hood was seven feet tall, bent double.
Omg! Incredibly beautiful Caddy! Thank You John, and Lou! Look how small, and thin that Owners Guide for this yacht of a car was in 1960. Compared to today’s Owners Manuals that are as thick if not thicker than a Holy Bible is. I used to read manuals cover to cover many times. Not today’s cars. I skim through the maintenance section.
Beautiful Cadillac Lou, I have a 1962 Cadillac Fleetwood 4 door hardtop that was my grandparents that im going to get to restore one day, have to finish my Duster and a 56 Chevy BelAir hardtop first. Never seen that color on a Cadillac before.
Fantastic baroque shark-mobile...love the indirect cabin lights on the doors and rear quarter interior too. I favor it over the '59, as I am a 1960 model myself😆
This is how you keep a Survivor, awesome, I love the 60, the 59 was a little too over the top haha which we all love though but the1960 model has just beautiful lines and styling that never goes out of "style" Love this car interesting color combination with interior, thank you Lou for the video
That's a beautiful big car love the color that's very interesting to have airbags from the factory on that car? although Cadillacs are really styling at the time😊
OMG, look at the length of that!!! What a BEAST!!!! Is that original paint and interior??? In 1960 i was barely 5 years old and i remember on Long Island Saint Patricks day parades closing down the then main highway and displaying cars like that, fire dept, etc. being in them almost new then!!!

This car is an outstanding subject for your series, The most remarkable aspect of this car is the functional air suspension system which was standard equipment on the 1960 Eldorado models for the last year, It would have been nice to have demonstrated how the air suspension system allowed manual lifting the car nearly five inches
Happy to read you enjoy this car :-) I tried videoing the air suspension lift, however it took too long to lift and I would have put everyone to sleep.
@@loucostabile If the system was working properly the lift process should be rather quick. That aside it is remarkable that the air suspension is still operable in this car.

Lou has kind of a Steve Buscemi look to him, IMO. 😉 Not sure if I saw it on this channel, but I recall seeing something about GM moving the cruise control into the spot on the driver's side where the windshield washer controls are in later models (possibly impacting other brands aside from Cadillac). That video pointed out how that essentially created a pretty significant safety hazard since the controls for both functions were designed almost exactly the same.
My mom hàd one of these in à Forest Green. I used it to go to Atlañtic Çity for our honeymoon trip in spring of 1964 while my ’63 Sting Ray was in the shop. It was a beautiful çar. (They both were)😂😅

If that third deuce carburetor were taking in gas for a while i wonder if the speedometer would get buried? The eldorado model trim sure makes a difference. Love those two chrome strips up high near the door handles and going all along the length. . . :>/
Hi Lou maybe you can let John know I think the 60s Cadillacs look a lot better than the 59 I know everybody is into the 59 Cadillacs but I think the 60s look a little better more sleeker? So he definitely has a beauty there and it's gold color Champagne.....
1960 convertible with factory a/c....you just didnt see it that often, and mostly only on the top luxury models...if you had it, it showed you had arrived indeed!

I always like the '60 better than the '59. The fins were more to scale on the '60. I had a neighbor about 15 years ago had '60 Coupe de Ville he bought new. Some car. big, When he passed his widow sold it.

I have one word, WOW! At least to my eye it’s a strange color combination. I believe the radio is not from 1960. Cadillac didn’t have AM/FM until 1963. Cars like this just aren’t made anymore. Nowadays all we can get are white, black, silver or gray SUV’s. Talk about boring!
The 1960s were supposed to be more outrageous until they saw what Chrysler (very conservative at the time) had sitting in a parking lot at one of their buildings behind a chain link fence for everyone to see. It shocked GM into changing all of their designs for 1960.
I’ve seen enough beautiful Cadillacs I can’t take it anymore. Put a hitch on it and I’ll tow a trailer. Sell the house and live in my trailer towed by a classic Caddy 😂

so my question that i have is what type of fuel do you use? and do you have to add a lead supplement for the rings? my pop had a 60 SDV and the a 65
Hi Neal, Not sure on the fuel question. Hoping a Viewer can share knowledge. Happy to read this car brings back memories of your Pops cars :-) Thank you for viewing and sharing, Lou
I always like the '60 better than the '59. The fins were more to scale on the '60. I had a neighbor about 15 years ago had '60 Coupe de Ville he bought new. Some car. big, When he passed his widow sold it.

Would loved to have known the story behind the centre arm rest which bucket seat cars never had, assume it was home made

WOW!!!

I have one word, WOW! At least to my eye it’s a strange color combination. I believe the radio is not from 1960. Cadillac didn’t have AM/FM until 1963. Cars like this just aren’t made anymore. Nowadays all we can get are white, black, silver or gray SUV’s. Talk about boring!
Hi Dave, Happy to receive a "WOW!" from you :-) Lou
Looks like a jet fighter ready for take off.
I can see why you'd say that.
The 1960s were supposed to be more outrageous until they saw what Chrysler (very conservative at the time) had sitting in a parking lot at one of their buildings behind a chain link fence for everyone to see. It shocked GM into changing all of their designs for 1960.

I’ve seen enough beautiful Cadillacs I can’t take it anymore. Put a hitch on it and I’ll tow a trailer. Sell the house and live in my trailer towed by a classic Caddy 😂
NICE!
