    THE 1957 CADILLAC ELDORADO

 

Cadillac's completely restyled 1957 Eldorado borrowed heavily from the lines of the Park Avenue, a hardtop sedan concept car shown at the 1954 Motorama.  A new X-member chassis contributed to structural rigidity as well as to a profile nearly three inches lower than before.

The Eldorado Biarritz and Seville had their own rear-end configuration. The work of Ron Hill, a talented 23-year-old design newcomer, it featured a sloped deck flanked by rounded fenders sprouting sharply pointed fins.  The lower rear fenders were liberally garnished with chrome.  The hood ornament was eliminated, contributing to a smoother frontal appearance.  Overall, the 1957 Eldorado was more readily distinguishable from other Cadillacs than any Eldorado since the original.  The standard horsepower was 300, more than enough power to get the job done.

 

PEOPLE WILL BE IN AWE OF ITS UNIQUE AMERICAN LUXURY CAR BIG FIN STYLING, AND YOU'LL GET MANY SIGNS OF THEIR APPROVAL!

Vehicle Condition:

 

THE INTERIOR OF THIS 1957 ELDORADO IS IN AMAZING MOSTLY “SURVIVOR” CONDITION!  THIS BEAUTIFULLY STYLED VINTAGE AMERICAN LUXURY CAR RUNS AND DRIVES WONDERFULLY!

 

 

This Eldorado is 57 years old, so some signs of age are to be expected!  Much of this car appears to be in amazing unrestored original "SURVIVOR" condition.  However, I’m sure that some items were replaced or rebuilt through the years.  Obviously the tires were replaced!  

 

This Eldorado has an amazing mostly “survivor” interior in excellent condition.  As would be expected, the clock is not currently working, very common for a vehicle this age.  The original factory radio does come on, but does not play.  I do believe the antenna is not plugged in, so that could be the problem.  The padded dash looks great and is soft and supple.  The headliner looks like new.  The glove box lock is not working and the door is temporarily being held closed with a spring, and the driver side ash tray is being held closed with silicone. 

 

The exterior style is beautiful!  The chrome bumpers have been rechromed.  The front bumpers look great, but there is an issue on the bottom of the driver’s side lower piece.  The rear bumpers and tail light housings do have pitting and some pealing.  There are three very minor windshield wiper scuffs that I believe will polish out.  The paint has a good shine but would benefit from a good polishing.  The paint does show some age as there is some cracking on the hood and one or two other spots.  The car was resprayed sometime in the past.  There is a scape and some indentations on the right rear and left rear stainless that can be repaired.  The sabre wheels show some pitting and minor chips. 

 

The trunk interior is in beautiful condition and holds what appears to be the original spare tire.  The engine bay is clean with some components being replaced or refreshed as some time.  The license plates shown on the car are not included in the sale.

 

The odometer reading above is as it reads and is most likely not the total miles. 

 

 

This Cadillac Eldorado Seville will turns heads and gets thumbs up virtually everywhere it goes!

GM puts e-commerce shopping in car dashboards

Tue, Dec 5 2017

DETROIT — General Motors on Tuesday said it will equip newer cars with in-dash e-commerce technology, betting it can profit as drivers order food, find fuel or reserve hotel rooms by tapping icons on the dashboard screen, instead of using smartphones while driving. GM's Marketplace technology, developed with IBM, will be uploaded automatically to about 1.9 million model-year 2017 and later vehicles starting immediately, with about 4 million vehicles across the Chevrolet, Buick, GMC and Cadillac brands equipped with the capability in the United States by the end of 2018, GM said. GM will get an undisclosed amount of revenue from merchants featured on its in-dash Marketplace, Santiago Chamorro, GM vice president for global connected customer experience, said during a briefing for reporters. Customers will not be charged for using the service or the data transmitted to and from the car while making transactions, he said. "This platform is financed by the merchants," Chamorro said. GM will get paid for placing a merchant's application on its screens, and "there's some level of revenue sharing" based on each transaction, he said. It is too soon to say how much revenue GM could realize from the Marketplace system, he said. The GM Marketplace will compete for customer clicks and revenue with hand-held smartphones, which offer a far richer array of applications than the GM system will at the outset. Amazon.com is partnering with other automakers, including Ford, to offer in-car e-commerce capability through Amazon's Alexa personal assistant system. For example, GM will launch Marketplace with just Shell and Exxon Mobil icons in the fuel category. The only restaurant available for in-car table reservations at launch is the chain TGI Fridays, GM said. In addition, there will be apps for parking, and ordering ahead at coffee shops and restaurants such as Starbucks, Dunkin' Donuts and Applebee's. "We will be adding more vendors," with some coming in the first quarter of 2018, Chamorro said. In addition, he said GM plans to expand integration into its vehicles of music, news and other information services. GM also hopes to use its in-car Marketplace connections to expand purchases of products and services, such as additional access to in-car wifi, from its own replacement parts business and dealer network. Customers can "expect to see more service promotions coming through the platform," Chamorro said. Reporting by Joe WhiteRelated Video:

2014 Cadillac ELR is making green sexy in Detroit

Tue, 15 Jan 2013


In terms of styling, inside and out, the ELR hits the ball out of the park.
Cadillac has pulled the wraps off of its newest family member, the long-rumored, Voltec-powered, eye-catching extended range hybrid coupe called the ELR. The car makes use of the same basic architecture as the Chevrolet Volt, but has been thoroughly layered on with design, technology and performance tuning - with the goal of being a properly situated product for the Cadillac brand.

How Cadillac improved power output in 2016 ELR by 25 percent

Tue, Jun 2 2015

Earlier this year, Cadillac announced that the 2016 ELR would come with a big price drop and a powertrain that packs 25 percent more power output. That's a lot more oomph, but it didn't sound like the Caddy engineers made any major changes to the engine or motors. So, what happened? Let's refresh our memories with the numeric details. The 2016 car is 1.5 seconds quicker to 60 miles per hour than the 2014 model (there was no 2015), down to 6.4 seconds. The 2014 put out 295 pound-feet of torque. For 2016, it will be 373 lb-ft. The specific breakdown of the various components in the powertrain has not been disclosed, but from what we can tell, the two electric motors and the 1.4-liter inline-four engine in the new ELR are not that much different than those in the old one. Sam Abuelsamid, senior research analyst at Navigant Research (and former writer here at Autoblog) said that any of the unspecified upgrades would be difficult to tell on a part-by-part basis, but the overall effect will be noticeable. "The changes to the ELR as I understand them are analogous to getting more performance out of a 1965 Mustang with the entry version of the 289 cubic-inch V8. You can replace the carburetor with a larger version that enables more air and fuel to flow into the engine, thus producing more power. The basic engine hasn't changed, but power capability is being unleashed by feeding it more." "Cadillac has changed components in the power electronics to enable more current flow into the motor and thus produce more torque. When you do this in the Mustang, you probably need to replace the rear axle gears and use a beefier clutch to transmit the power to the wheels. Similarly, the ELR probably has some upgraded clutches, bearings, and gears to withstand the increased total output." Cadillac spokesperson David Caldwell told AutoblogGreen in an email that the new ELR does indeed have more than just new lines of code. "One could not 'reflash' a previous ELR to get the performance of a 2016," Caldwell said. "If one only changed software you would not get the performance upgrade fully, as the 2016 creates higher current, more power. So these have been upgraded physically – hardware.
