1960 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz

This 1960 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz is one of the most glamorous and collectible American convertibles of the fin era, finished in rare Heather over white leather and benefiting from a comprehensive refurbishment around 2020. The high-quality repaint restores the car’s factory color beautifully, while a fresh power-operated white soft top completes the dramatic, unmistakably Cadillac presentation. Signature styling details include towering tailfins with integrated taillights, vertically stacked quad headlights, massive chrome bumpers, long sweeping body lines, and chrome wire wheels with wide whitewall tires. Few American convertibles better capture the peak of 1960s excess and elegance.

Power comes from the highly desirable tri-power 390ci V8 with three two-barrel carburetors, factory rated at 345 horsepower and 435 lb-ft of torque, paired with a four-speed Hydra-Matic automatic transmission. The engine delivers the strong, smooth, authoritative performance expected from Cadillac’s flagship convertible, while recent service work included replacement of the windshield wiper motor, power vent window motors, heater core, and door sill plates. An added electric fuel pump further improves drivability, making this a highly usable vintage luxury car despite its extraordinary show presence.

The interior features front bucket seats, a Biarritz hallmark, trimmed in white leather, along with a matching rear bench and period-correct bright trim. Luxury equipment includes power-adjustable seating, power windows, power locks, push-button radio, Autronic Eye automatic headlight dimmer, and Soft Ray glass. The cabin remains formal, spacious, and highly attractive, reinforcing the car’s position at the very top of Cadillac’s 1960 lineup. With limited-production status, strong restoration work, and tremendous visual impact, this Eldorado Biarritz is a centerpiece-level collector car with exceptional historical significance.
