This Incredible 1957 Cadillac Eldorado Features Fins Like A Great White’s

I feel like we don’t talk about Cadillacs that much on this blog. Vintage Caddies are some of the best cars you can buy, but they don’t get as much buzz around them as Fords and Chevys. This Eldorado Seville shows that this needn’t be the case. Featuring fins that look sharp enough to cut diamond, cars don’t come a whole lot more vintage, or a whole lot prettier than this. Currently listed for just over $100,000 on Streetside Classics, I can’t say it wouldn’t be worth it.

The car’s clock displays just 300 miles since its rebuild, which gave it, among other upgrades, a 5.3 liter LS Vortec engine. The engine is augmented with a hi-flow air cleaner, and an aluminum radiator. The exhaust system features straight pipes that roll out into a glasspack-style dual exhaust. Engine presentation is as tidy as you’d expect, and it’s been color matched to the Caddy’s exterior. The car rides on Fatman suspension up front, with ladder bars at the rear, and adjustable coilovers. Handling has been improved with rack and pinion steering, and cruising in this Cadillac is as easy as pie, thanks to a 4L60E automatic transmission.
