Oxford #87CE57001 1/87 1957 Cadillac Eldorado Brougham-Ebony
The Cadillac Eldorado was manufactured in the USA between 1952 and 2002 across 12 generations of the marque. Our newly tooled 1:87 scale model is from the third era of the Eldorado Brougham spanning the short period between 1957 and 1958, when it was produced with a distinctive body shell and rear wheel drive. With four doors, it featured low downswept bumpers, elaborate tail fins with a steel ‘beauty panel’ section that ran from the rear wheel arches and moulded into the rear bumpers. Even the top edges of the tail fins are finished in chrome. The front bumper came in three sections. It was also the most expensive of all the Cadillac models at that time. Available as both a convertible and as a closed top, this Eldorado is avaialble with a closed top.
Our model is decorated in black with silver roof and beige interior and the detailing takes in all the elaborate bodywork of the real car, culminating in the whitewall tyres with red centres. Our example was registered in Michigan GS-8757 Water Wonderland.
