As of Dec. 8, 2024, this is the information we have about this car:
[Feb.11.2024] An update was provided by Trevor Pordage of Brisbane, Australia: "I used to own #323 but unfortunately I had to sell about 10 years ago. I have finally retired and hope to start working on getting 656 running. I will never be able to restore it but hopefully I can get it driving and ready for the next owner."
[Feb.01.2009] Car #656 is listed as a survivor in this roster, since 1975, but its where abouts were not known. In August, 2003, it was offered for sale on e-Bay; the ad read: The greatest automobiles ever built. There was only about 300 of these hand-built [???] beauties ever made. It has a stainless steel roof, suicide rear doors, 3 deuces, dual exhaust, alloy wheels, tilt [???],A/C,PS,PB,PS,PW, air ride suspension, and every other thing that the guys from GM could throw at it. This car is awsum [sic!]. It could be restored to be one of the best cars ever built in America, or a set of 20' wheels and candy paint and you've a great custom cruiser [yuk!!!]. They even make a Hot Wheels [version] of this car. It is very rare, check it out on line: Cadillac Eldorado Brougham.com [???]. This is a rare opportunity for you also!' Apparently, the car sold for $10,000. Late Extra [Feb. 2009] :' the car' has gone to Australia and is in the capable hands of Brougham enthusiast, Trevor Pordage, whom I met while on holiday in Australia in 2005.' I hope to get some more photos as the restoration of his ' new' car progresses. Trevor owns also#329.
