Classic Cadillac Cars

The 1959 Cadillac was the brainchild of Designer Harley Earl, who drew on the inspiration of American space travel and rockets for his design. The 59 Cadillac was the pinnacle of American auto design excess. With tail fins that rose a full 42 inches off the ground, rocket flare tail lights, quad headlights and massive chrome bumpers, a body length of 20 feet, this was the ultimate Sioux Falls Cadillac for grabbing attention. The ’59 ‘s outrageous fins are accentuated by its extremely low profile, which is three inches lower than the ’58 model already low profile.

Harley Earl was directly responsible for the design of the 50 million vehicles and completely changed the American automobile industry in the 1950s. No single person has had such an impact in shaping the American automobile design, and no man has committed so many design excesses. Included in his space-themed designs were other images such as chrome denture grilles, dashboards that looked like they belonged to fighters with dozens of switches and controls, bumpers protrusions known as “Dagmar”, hood ornaments that looked like missile launchers.

The 1959 Cadillac is an American icon. You will see this year model that appears in many of the 50′s style diners and restaurants. Hard Rock Cafe is always either a 1959 or 1960 Cadillac displayed in their restaurants. The 59 also starred in many films, as in the Clint Eastwood movie “Pink Cadillac”. The 59 Cadillac was a monument to American optimism in the 1950s, it was actually the “American dream”. Who would not love to drive one of these today? Today you will be hard to find a restored 59 convertible for less than $ 70,000 with many of them that sell for considerably more than 100K. You can own Sioux Falls Cadillacs brand new for less than that now!

Some of the features in 59 Series 62 Cadillac included power adapter brakes, power steering, automatic transmission, central locking, tinted glass, and some options include headlight dimmers (Autronic eye), electrically operated windows, seat adjust, and trunk. Some of the other models available included the 8 seater Fleetwood Limo, and Eldorado Biarritz as the most valuable ’59 Cadillac model.
