  • This 1958 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz is a beautifully restored 50s cruiser and is only 1 of 815 Eldorado Biarritz Convertibles produced in '58. On February 7, 1958, Cadillac produced its two-millionth automobile. Interestingly, it took Cadillac 47 years to build one million cars but only 8 years to reach the two-million mark. For General Motors, the American automaker celebrated its 50th anniversary but the timing was not ideal. Despite seeing technological advancements in 1958, the entire industry experienced a sharp downturn in sales due to a recession. For Cadillac, that downturn amounted to the GM marque selling 25,000 fewer units from the previous year. Nearly every 1958 Cadillac model was significantly redesigned from the previous year models. At the nose, a new-look grille was added that was larger and wider, and accented by cylindrical "cleats" that connected horizontal and vertical cross-members. Down the sides, the trim was more refined and featured 5 horizonal windsplints ahead of the rear wheel housing. At the rear, the new-look tailfins were less pronounced and the rear bumper retained it's split design but was redesigned as well. Sitting atop Cadillac's convertible heirarchy was the Eldorado Biarritz, sporting elevated trim and improved standard options, plus a price tag of $7,500, nearly 30% higher than the standard Series 62. Under the hood on this particular 58 Cadillac is a 365 V8 engine paired with a single 4 barrel carburetor. The 365 V8 is backed by a Hydra-Matic Automatic Transmission and exhaust exits via a dual exhaust setup. Being the top-of-the-line convertible for Cadillac in 1958, it comes loaded with numerous desirable options such as power brakes, power steering ans a blue Haartz cloth power convertible top with matching parade boot. Riding on a set of Sabre wheels paired with wide whitewall radial tires, this 1958 Eldorado Biarritz has a great 50s look and even better ride. The exterior has been correctly refinished in a beautiful Argyle Blue that completes the regal exterior appearance of this '58 Cadillac. The interior on this 1958 Eldorado is absolutely gorgeous! The front and rear bench seats have been reupholstered in beautiful blue leather. The matching blue dash, upholstered door panels, blue carpeting and steering wheel are all in wonderful condition and appear to be in their stock configuration. Being that this 1958 Biarritz is a Cadillac, the interior comes loaded with numerous interior options including power front seat, power windows, and an Autronic Eye which is a wonderful 50s novelty on this top-of-the-line Cadillac Convertible. The padded dash is equipped with a 120 MPH speedometer, temperature gauge, fuel gauge, clock and push-button AM radio. Whether you're purchasing your first classic car or you're adding to your existing Cadillac collection, this 1958 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz would make an excellent choice.

    1956, 57 and 58 were the best looking Eldorados

    My great Grandmother had the 58 Limo in Gunmetal, which was a beautiful color! You could have fit an entire dead mafia crime family in the trunk!

    A quick look at the front of this car and I see a 1958 Chevy Impala.

      You cant compare a chevy to a cadillac. The only thing that makes you think that is they both have dual headlights and the hood shape in front. If you put them side by side you'll see they are VERY DIFFERENT.

      ​@@mrknotthallI think all GM cars look similar especially the '58s. Maybe it's the windshield or bumper/hood shapes.
