1957 Cadillac Eldorado Brougham - One Of The Best Worldwide!! on 2040-cars
Alphen aan den Rijn, Netherlands
LaSalle Classic Cars proudly presents this totally restored 1957 Cadillac Eldorado Brougham! LaSalle Classic Cars is specialized in high quality American cars of the forties and fifties. We are located in the Netherlands, Europe, near the Amsterdam Airport.
This 1957 Eldorado Brougham is in like new condition and is complete with all the vanity items! Body number 155, in the original color of Deauville Gray (paint 118) with a lovely new interior by SMS fabrics in the factory correct Bayou Gray Cloth and White Leather (Trim 138), the carpet is "Mouton" (sheepskin). This Brougham was fully restored in Sweden and is complete with all the original vanity items that belong with this particular Brougham! A unique Cadillac as the experts know. For many it is the ultimate Cadillac! There are only 704 of this first series made in 1957-58. Equipped with all possible options then available, including; a 325 hp dual carburettor V-8, a stainless steel roof, memory seat, power everything (even the vent windows and trunklid!), air conditioning, transistor radio (for the first time, instead of tubes), cast-aluminium wheels, automatic starter system etc., etc. All these features are in working condition! These Broughams featured a problematic air suspension when new but like most Broughams this car has long since been converted to coil springs. The new price was astronomically high; $ 13,740. In comparison, a Ford Fairlane Sedan would cost you only $ 2,200. So you could buy 6 for the price of a Brougham! The so-called "vanity items" associated with the Brougham consist of the following: 6 magnetized drinking cups with a cylindrical plastic holder, a plastic case for cigarettes, a beveled vanity mirror, a notepad with Silver Cross pen, a bottle of Arp`ege by Lanvin perfume with gold atomizer top and a lady vanity case made by Evans. The vanity case was especially made by Evans for the Cadillac and features the famous Cadillac "V" on the outside and has the same color leather as the top of the dashboard. Inside you’ll find a comb, lipstick holder and powder puff. The notepad and mirror are stored in the rear armrest compartiment and are therefore color keyed to the upholstery (in this case white leather). The Brougham runs and drives great! It is extremely difficult to find a properly restored Brougham, let alone find one with all the original vanity items complete!! This is truly a unique opportunity for the enthusiast /collector! Dutch registration papers.

40+ cars that barely avoid the gas guzzler tax
Thu, 24 Jul 2014
The Gas Guzzler schedule, with mpg ratings and charges that haven't changed since 1991, lays out which fuel-swillers owe what to Uncle Sam.
I started thinking about the "Gas Guzzler Tax" - considerably less well known as The Energy Tax Act of 1978 - when I was driving Dodge's new Challenger SRT Hellcat last week. Unsurprisingly for a car that can burn 1.5 gallons of gas per minute at max tilt, theoretically able to empty a full tank of premium in about 13 minutes, the Hellcat will be subject to the Gas Guzzler Tax schedule when it goes on sale.
Sunday Drive: An automotive flavor for every taste
Sun, Feb 25 2018Last week was flush with interesting new vehicle debuts, led by the new 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe. This crossover is entering straight into the heart of one of the world's most competitive automotive segments, and it's doing so with a fresh sense of style and a brace of new technologies. Our readers are clearly intrigued – the Santa Fe was the biggest news story of the last week on these online pages. It's fitting that a crossover generated a lot more interest than a traditional wagon, though we don't really have to be happy about it. Still, the completely new, fully redesigned Volvo V60 is worth taking another look at. First of all, it's pretty, in a traditionally Scandinavian way. Second, it's quick, with a 0-60 time of as little as 4.8 seconds. And finally, it's practical, with all kinds of room for cargo without the dynamic penalties of an unnecessary lift kit. Moving on from new vehicle debuts, we took another long look at the Honda Ridgeline. It's definitely a non-conformist pickup truck, based not on a body-on-frame platform but on a more carlike unibody design. That means it can't tow as much as some other trucks, but it also means the Ridgeline drives better than any of its more truckish competitors. It's the Swiss army knife of pickup trucks. Rounding out our coverage from last week are three sets of spy photos, each showing the interior of a hotly anticipated new model. One is a truck, one is a crossover, and the last is a sportscar. All of them are worth another look. As always, stay tuned to Autoblog this week for all the most important news in the automotive world. 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe unveiled 2019 Volvo V60 | Sleek, swift new twist on the Swedish wagon 2018 Honda Ridgeline | Pocketknife pickup is up for anything 2019 GMC Sierra interior looks just like the Silverado's 2019 Cadillac XT4 interior has actual buttons, no more touch-sensitive panel 2020 Porsche 911 992 spy shots show interior and manual transmission Cadillac GMC Honda Hyundai Porsche Volvo Truck Crossover Wagon Luxury Performance Sedan hyundai santa fe
