1954 Cadillac Eldorado
In 1954, the redesigned Cadillac Eldorado featured a much sleeker body style than previous models.
Shedding some of its sheet metal and using newer and less expensive extruded aluminum trim pieces also allowed Cadillac to lower the price, which resulted in a substantial increase in sales.
In 1954, 2,150 Eldorados were sold, nearly four times the number sold in 1953.
