The Cadillac Eldorado model spans six decades of vaunted Cadillac history. The name “Eldorado” translates from Spanish to “the gilded one,” and was first given to a 1952 Cadillac concept car to honor Cadillac’s 50th year, its golden anniversary. By 1975, the Cadillac Eldorado Convertible stood alone in the American luxury soft-top field; the Eldo offered the best of both worlds.
