As of Nov. 5, 2024, this is the information we have about this car:
[Jan.01.2008] Car #546 [new, 10/2004] is a new addition to the Database. There was no earlier indication that this car had survived. I got the information from Peter Straath of, owner of the Amsterdam Auto Museum in Holland. Peter writes: I would like to inform you that I acquired a very nice collection of Cadillacs for my museum, HetAmsterdams Automuseum (www.amsterdamsautomuseum.nl). If you are interested you can take a look on our website, a lot of great pictures ofFifties Caddy's, we currently have 17 Cadillacs for sale. One is this Eldorado Brougham from 1958, number 546 (not previously listed onthe Database), paint #132 (JamaicanGreen), trim #636 green cloth/leather throughout. The car is in good condition, complete,but missing the vanity items.The asking price is 30.000 euros. I believe thisis the car that was pointed out to me in February, 1998, by another Dutch friend, RikGruwez, administrator of the Cadillac Mailing List (CML);he said there was a green 1957-58 Brougham in the collection of JacquesBruynooghe, who lives close to Roeselare, in Holland. I'll ask Peter if this is that car. Late Extra [9/2005]: Jerry Jansson, ' our man in Broughamland' , says this car was recently sold for $32,105. Latest [1/2007]: The new owner is Frederic Puren of Miami, FL; he contacted me in January, 2008 and sent the three latest pics, below. Frederic did not paerticulrly like the original green color and has decided to repaint the car more suitably black; he is also carrying out a full restoration, even though he says the carwas in very good, overall condition when he recovered it from Belgium. He hopes it will beready to be driven to the Keys later this year.
