As of May 15, 2024, this is the information we have about this car:
[Feb.01.2017] Car #425 was known to have survived but its where abouts were unknown until now. The owner just contacted me and will be supplying photos and a short history in thecoming weeks. He writes: Yann,Noticed that my Eldorado Brougham is not listed in the Data Base. In the near future I would like to supply pictures and information on #425. I have owned this car 30 years and have been quite active in the CLC in northern Ohio USA. Roger Hicks. Roger wrote again: Here is some information on my 1958 Eldorado Brougham #425. I have owned it since 1975 and have continued to improve it during the last 30 years. It was a very nice Florida car when I purchased it and never seen our OHIO winters and salt that we are so famous for. All chrome has been re-plated; I have re-painted it twice in the last 30 years. The biggest job was restoring the wheels to better than new condition. Upholstery has been redone inthe correct cloth. We have bought the best lamb skins available, had them dyed to the correct color and my wife actually cut and stitched them together. Another major job was replacing the padded dash. As with all old cars they are never done and I will continue to improve it every year. In a separate E mail I will send additional pictures. Thanks for including this into the Brougham survivor list.
