Dream Car Giveaway

 

External variations on the Seville two-door hardtop and Biarritz convertible coupe took the form of bright body sill highlights that extended across the lower edge of fender skirts and Eldorado lettering on the sides of front fenders just behind the headlamps. Standard equipment included:

  • power brakes
  • power steering
  • automatic transmission
  • dual backup lamps
  • windshield washers and dual Speed wipers
  • wheel discs
  • outside rear view mirror
  • oil filter
  • heater
  • fog lamps
  • Eldorado engine
  • remote control trunk lock
  • radio with antenna and rear speaker
  • power vent windows
  • Six-Way power seat
  • air suspension
  • electric door locks
  • license frames
  • five whitewall tires

A textured vinyl fabric top was offered on the Eldorado Seville and interior trim choice included cloth and leather combinations. The Brougham continued as an Italian-bodied four-door hardtop with special Brougham nameplates above the grille. It did not sport Eldorado front fender letters or body sill highlights, but had a distinctive squared-off roofline with rear ventipanes—a prediction of 1961 styling motifs for the entire Cadillac line. A fin-like crease, or "skeg," ran from behind the front wheel opening to the rear of the car on the extreme lower body sides and there were special vertical crest medallions on the trailing edge of rear fenders. Cruise Control, a Guide-Matic headlight dimmer, air conditioning and E-Z-Eye glass were regular equipment.
