one of 304, 1958 Cadillac Eldorado Brougham


what they left off this call out card is extensive, but in a nutshell it was the most expensive car made that year:  $13,074... for the 1958 Cadillac Brougham. $2000 more than the Rolls Royce that year (Hot Rod Deluxe May 2008, Page 42)
From a feature on this car http://www.johndagostinokustomkars.com/images/58%20Cadillac%20Eldorado%20Brougham%20Kustom%206.jpg
I posted a good gallery of a 1957 Eldorado Brougham a couple years ago http://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2008/05/most-expensive-car-made-in-1957.html

Houdini's wand, Washington's axe, and this 1931 Cadillac... not much original material to the item you see that is called the original, it's all been replaced I think




well, there wasn't much left of a Cadillac was there? And engine block, exhaust manifolds, steering, front fenders... but was any of that kept? Regardless, the car that was made is magnificent, and the call sheet says it was a 31 year job to make it as you now see it displayed below






see it and marvel at what a beautiful car it is, at the San Diego Auto Museum

Donk Limo Madness Super Mod

What can I say about this totally crazy custom limo with the suspension and super large rims. I don't even know what to call all the parts but it sure is over the top.

I never thought that a panoramic picture of the underside of a Cadillac would be so amazing, but here it is, amazing. I found this by accident while surfing the net and this caught my eye. It almost looks like a motivation poster, maybe a whole series of these could be made. Its about time the guy who designs the underside of cars gets some artistic credit:) Well done great idea.
