Cadillac produced 1,800 examples of the Eldorado Biarritz convertible for 1957. This car’s Fleetwood-built bodywork was delivered from the factory in Dakota Red (50) and was repainted. Chrome trim accents the bumpers, wheel arches, grille, window surrounds, and tail fins, while additional features include hooded headlights, gold badging, dual side mirrors, a power-operated white convertible top, and dual exhaust outlets that exit through the rear bumper.
Gold-finished Sabre 15″ wheels wear Cadillac center emblems and are mounted with BFGoodrich Silvertown whitewall tires. A spare is stored in the trunk. The car has power steering and power-assisted drum brakes.
The front and rear bench seats are upholstered in red and white leather complemented by color-coordinated door panels and red carpeting. Equipment includes a power-adjustable front bench seat with a folding center armrest as well as power windows, a remote-operated trunk, air conditioning, a heater, a push-button AM radio, a clock, a dash-mounted Autronic Eye headlight dimmer, and red rubber floor mats.
The white two-spoke steering wheel features a horn ring and frames a 120-mph speedometer and gauges monitoring fuel level and coolant temperature.
