They were equipped with every power accessory available on any car of the 1950′s, including: air- ride suspension system, exclusive 15″ Kelsey-Hayes turbine wheels, an electric eye self-dimming system for the new 1958 quad headlight setup, and the first all-transistor, signal-seeking car radio produced by GM’s Delco Radio.  This car has been garaged its entire life by the original owner and looks as good as the day it rolled off the showroom floor.

To answer a few questions I have added this: It has 4 brand new Coker whitewalls and is ready to go anywhere. It is ALL original. The mileage is accurate. The motor runs PERFECTLY. It has not been rebuilt. Everything works but the radio. Always garaged. It was taken to a KC car show a couple months ago and won Best in Show it's class. The Coupe De Ville emblem is incorrect. The man who bought this Seville new in 1958, and has been the only registered owner, obviously suffered the loss of the original emblem on the left rear fin and probably couldn't locate another Seville emblem (very few of these models made) and had to settle for a De Ville emblem. He probably attached this replacement with two small screws to make sure he wouldn't lose this one so easily. There is a good chance these emblems were occasionally stolen off these top of the line models and taken home for a desk top decoration.

I have a partial picture of the engine so if you want to see it please send a message. I would have liked to add to the listing but eBay won't let me do that.
