Description
1954 Cadillac Eldorado Cabriolet Manufacturer: 1954 Cadillac Eldorado Cabriolet Vehicle registration document: German registration certificate Chassis No.: Chassis No. 546236549 - Only 2,150 built! - Beautifully restored, original colour - The epitome of luxury in 1954!   The Eldorado was the most luxurious version based on the 62 Series; its high specification and opulent finish made it the car of choice for the very wealthy. Cadillac updated its models every year, and certain model years stand out, such as 1954. With its spoked wheels, distinctive body panels and removable metal soft-top cover – not to mention power steering and an electric soft-top – the 1954 Eldorado offered a more flamboyant style than the previous model year. The example shown here is part of this highly sought-after series. Sold new in the USA, it features a superb black paint finish (code 1A) combined with a black and cream leather interior (code 30 Y), which lends it a rare air of distinction. Imported into Europe in 2008, it subsequently underwent a restoration spanning four years, documented by numerous photographs. The bodywork and underbody have been restored, the soft top fabric has been replaced and its mechanism has been refurbished. The beautiful two-tone leather upholstery, faithful to the original specification, has been restored whilst preserving as much of the existing material as possible. The powerful original V8 engine, paired with the Hydra-Matic gearbox, is running satisfactorily. This superb Cadillac, ready to hit the road, comes with a 2025 valuation report and numerous documents detailing its history since 2008. Complete with its badges and trim specific to the ’54 model year, the black bodywork, against which the gleaming chrome stands out, is impressive and resembles a work of art. A car like this is hard to come by in Europe!
