1957 Eldorado Biarritz Convertible - Press Release Photo

This was used as a stock picture for an advertising agency. The photo has the press release glued to the bottom of the picture and reads as follows:

ELDORADO BIARRITZ - Styling remindful of the "dream cars" appears on this 1957 Eldorado Biarritz Convertible. Not only are the fins set inboard on the smoothly contoured body but the bumper is built in and wraps around to the rear wheel openings. Biarritz owners have a choice of two engines; the high performance 300 horsepower Cadillac engine or a modified version which develops 325 horsepower.
