This 1955 Cadillac Eldorado Sport Convertible is a beautifully restored 50s cruiser with fantastic, driver-friendly options! When Cadillac introduced the Eldorado Convertible in 1953, it was a mid-year addition to Cadillac's lineup and the extremely luxurious convertible was produced in limited quantities. The first-year Eldorado was also a member of General Motors Motorama convertible trifecta that also included the Buick Skylark and Oldsmobile Fiesta. By the time 1955 rolled around, the Eldorado begun gathering some traction among Cadillac's dedicated customer base and was the ultimate status symbol among high society. In total, Cadillac produced just over 12,000 convertibles in 1955, of which just under 4,000 were Eldorado Sport Convertibles which makes this particular car quite a rare piece of automobile history. Powering this '55 Cadillac is a Numbers Matching 331 V8 engine fed by dual 4 barrel carburetors tucked under the iconic "Batwing" air cleaner. The 331 V8 is backed by a Hydra-Matic Automatic Transmission and exhaust exits via a through-bumper dual exhaust setup. Riding on a set of wide whitewall tires wrapped around a set of Sabre Wheels, this 1955 Cadillac Eldorado has a fantastic look cruising down the road. This '55 Eldorado Convertible is absolutely loaded with options like power steering, power brakes and a power convertible top. Mounted on the dash is an Autronic Eye which is a cool novelty on any fifties Cadillac. The exterior of this Cadillac has been correctly refinished in beautiful Silver paint, just how this car came back in 1955. Gorgeous chrome and brightwork around the outside of this convertible complete the exterior look of the car. The interior on this '55 Cadillac Eldorado is absolutely stunning! The front and rear bench seats have been correctly reupholstered in beautiful black leather. The front black leather bench seat is also equipped with a 6-way adjustable power seat which is also a neat option. All 4 power windows work great and they all go up and down with the simple flick of a switch. The padded dash, upholstered door panels, carpeting and steering wheel are all in wonderful condition and appear to be in their stock configuration. The instrument cluster is equipped with a 120 MPH speedometer, temperature gauge, and fuel gauge. The dash is completed with a retro-style AM/FM entertainment system and clock. Whether you're buying your first classic car or you're adding to your existing collection of classics, this 1955 Cadillac Eldorado Sport Convertible would make an excellent choice.
