Cruising in Jönköping last night

That IS a special one. Its a '57 or '58 Cadillac Eldorado Brougham. They were very much factory customs, with 4dr hardtop styling, suicide doors, air suspension, and brushed stainless steel roofs. They only made 704 of them during those two years of production. Why so exclusive? The cars listed price in 1957 was $13,074! You could have bought a Coupe DeVille for the wife, a Bel Air hardtop for yourself, and a Vette for weekends for about the same total money.

They made Cadillac Broughams for two more years, but they were substantially redesigned. They made about 200 during '59/'60, with final assembly farmed out to Pininfarina. Same $13K nosebleed price.

Neat cars Anders! I may have to visit one of these years. I like the mix of a foreign land with this hard core American car culture, both musclecars and 50's rods. Thanks for sharing!
