1959 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible |
||||||
Cadillac
invented the automobile tail fin when it added modest little bumps
to the rear fenders of its 1948 models. Fins reached their zenith
on the 1959 Cadillacs. This Cadillac Eldorado Biaritz Convertible
was
the ultimate space-age car of the 1950s with the highest tail
fins ever put on an American production car. Only 1320 of these
vehicles, which originally sold for $7401, were produced. |
