1960 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz
Wearing the signature design of Dave Holls, in an era where no design was too wild, the nineteen-foot-long Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Convertible is a more reserved version created for 1960. Powered by a 390 cubic inch, 345 horsepower V8, wearing three carburetors, and riding on a 130-inch wheelbase and chock full of power equipment, this is the ultimate American convertible, Cadillac style.
Cadillac assembled 1,285 Eldorado Biarritz convertibles in 1960. Costing $7,400 (two-and-half-times the average new car price), the car came very well equipped. Equipment which includes air suspension, a fiberglass parade boot, fog lights, autronic eye, electric trunk pull down, power vent windows, vacuum door locks and Florentine leather. The car touts a new taillight design with thin red lenses replacing the bullet style lenses used earlier, but retained much of the 'finfully' over-the-top styling that debuted in 1959.
