These are a collection of my favorite Eldorado Brougham pictures.

The black and white photo below has to be my very favorite Brougham picture. According to the caption it is a 1957 model.

Pictures I have taken over the years  of my Brougham (#402).  Click here for Complete Picture Album of this car.

test....don't click here

 

Here are a few that I have collected from various sources.

 

Here are a few pictures that Dirk Noller sent me. Dirk saw this beauty  at the Concours d'Elegance of the RAID in Basle. Thanks Dirk.

 

My email pal Lance Hirsch sent me these picture's of his beautiful 1958 Eldorado Brougham. This is an original, un-restored car. Wish I could see this Cadillac in person:

Check out the drinking tumblers and vanity set in Lance's Brougham. Makes us envious!

A special thanks to Lance  not only  for these wonderful pictures but for all the help and advice he has given me with my Brougham.

 

Check out Jerry Jansson's latest acquisition.....what a beautiful '57 Brougham! Jerry's car is Jamaican Green. Jerry  sent me these pictures of his Brougham, photographed in  Stockholm, Sweden.

Thanks for these great pictures Jerry. Looking forward to seeing more of this car.

Jim Crabtree took these pictures of a '57 model  in the Silverado Conours in Vallejo, California, June 2001.  Thanks for these wonderful pictures Jim!

Note the "batwing" air cleaner canister used in the '57 models. These were much different than the large, round units that were used in the '58s. The difference is due to the carburetor arrangements underneath these contraptions. The '57 Brougham uses dual quad crabs, while the '58s used the Tri-Power (three two-barrel carburetor)  setup.

 

This beautiful '58 has an all-leather interior.....this was not an option...it was a choice. These picture are from the book American Dream Machines. This was the first pictures I had ever seen of the Eldorado Broughams.  It was this picture that made me fall in love with these incredible machines!

This series of black and white photographs were featured in an article called Cadillac's Eldorado Brougham (An Exclusive Automobile). The article was printed in Cars & Parts magazine dated March 1979.

 

Note the drum-type clock located above the glove box.  The glove box (itself a work of art) houses the drinking tumblers as well as some of the other vanity items that came with every Brougham. Two other interesting picture: louvers located in the upper front fenders and the stubby door striker post that allows the front and rear doors to lock into place when they are closed.

The following pictures were taken by Dirk Van Dorst who is a member of the CLC Belgium Region. Dirk took the picture of this Brougham in from May 2001 in France (chateau d'Aveny) in Normandié. The ladu owner of this Eldordao  lives in the area of Paris, and is a member of the ACCF (American car club de France). Dirk reportsthat yet another Brougham in the Holland area is undergoing restoration. Can't wait to see pictures of that one Dirk.

 

Thanks for the pictures Dirk.

These pictures were sent in by  Reinhard Schmidlin. They are  pictures of his beautiful 1957 Brougham. This car wears body number 247.

Nice pair of Broughams!

The picture above shows Brougham vanity and accessories in glass case displayed at the Cadillac Museum. Look closely at this picture and you'll see the faint image of the Brougham on display at the same museum.

 

No! You're right the picture below  is not  of an Eldorado Brougham (it's not even close). But it is a picture of me (at age 11) in my Dad's first car. This is a 1969 Pontiac Laurentian.  Sadly, I never actually got to drive this car.
