Looking for a 1959 Cadillac Eldorado Seville for sale
Cash on hands but slightly tight budget... up to $ 80k ~ $ 85k
In any conditions, but only non-rusted straight cars even than needing a complete restoration
I have a strong preference for a “hampton greenâ€, “persian sand†or even an “argyle blue†car and (also) a "fully loaded" (air cond., cruise control and autronic eye) car â€" about the color/trim, doesn't matter its current condition, color painted and interior because, about my preference above listed, I'll consider the "ID-Tag" data info. - that is, which matters to me it's the "factory"/original features/color/options/trim (not the current and - eventually - non-original color etc.)...
Despite my color/trim preferences, I'll consider any 1959 Seville as well - anyway, I'd like to do the "best buy" with my budget!
If you own a Seville and are willing to sell it, please, send me a private message!
I thanks in advance!

Hello Gene...
Thank you so much for the feedback and proposal... :) :) by the description, your Series-62 looks a nice car but I'm really looking just for an Eldorado Seville...
;) All the best,
Ian
You know about this car already. The seller initially had it as a raffle, but canceled it, as it was illegal, then he now has it on consignment. he bought it from a local guy in Northern California and put air bags on it.

Yes... in fact, what I don't like in this car is that it was restored “out†from its factory features (color, trim etc.) and still have that extra detail of the non-original suspension â€"the buyer will pay for a “restored†car but that would have to redo it over again to its original color/trim, take off these aftermarket air suspension etc. :( even for a restored Seville I think U$ 130k quite expensive for this car... this guy has been trying to inflate the 1959 Seville market with that history about "just 30 Seville survivors" (that we know isn't real) >:D ;D ;D ;D
Dinh... do you remember that olympic white Seville from Idaho (painted in light rose)? That’s really nice car â€" I regret (a lot!!!) not buying that car :-[ :-[ :-[
Yes, I remember that one. Sold? :(
YES! It was Sold i heard it went to Florida!

I heard the same (about it went to Florida)... Cris, do you think that's possible to track that car?
I'm still tracking that green (the disassembled one) too... but none news about it whereabouts..
Up!
(Still looking for) 8)
Ian , Matt Harwood has this one https://www.harwoodmotors.com/vehicles/inventory_details.php?id=1239
Looks like a "decent" car, but for $90k it has
some issues. The original air suspension was
removed and it is not a body off restoration --
the underside was not detailed.
In addition, those wire wheels are not correct
for a '59. Repainted resale red which was not
the original color.

Interior looks a little puffy and wrinkled , and the door panel stainless being painted doesn’t add anything to the car , could write a 2 page list off all the things come incorrectly on this car , definitely not a 90k car
Someone didn't care about any of the above it is sold.
What’s the old saying sucker born every minute ? The screws drilled into the the center of the stainless on the door panels is always a nice touch .
Well... this red one really sounds expensive for U$ 89k - personally, I'd rather to pay for a car needing a complete restore than a wrong or bad "redone" car... but is impressive that was sold in just 3 days since was listed! I have been scared by these latest prices on the few '59 Sevilles recently listed... what I have noticed is there are few 1959 Sevilles left in the USA... and most of the good survivors are in Europe nowadays... and never for sale
Less than two years ago I saw three VERY nice '59 Sevilles being sold at really fair prices... since then, nothing more really nice and/or in a fair price has been listed for sale :-\
It seems will be hard to find a good one :'( :'(
Stay patient Ian , a good one will pop up at a fair price .

I hope so, Ray :D
I'm trying to track some well known Sevilles that were sold along the last 8 ~ 10 years, but until now, no good news

sold really so fast Marty :-X :-X :-X I'm afraid the price they'll ask for the next one
I remember just 5 years ago, the Sevilles condition #3 were going for $50,000-$65,000.
Remember the Marilyn Monroe one? That sold for $59,000 and went overseas.

The Coupe Deville and Series 62 are asking that kind of price nowadays.
Are the Seville prices going to be $100,000 and above?

Dinh I still remember well from a recent past where many '59 Sevilles were used as "trim donors" for Biarritz's restore... or even (and worse) chopped to "be" convertibles... but looks this age came to the end! I have felt that many people woke up to the 1959 Seville's rarity and appeal... :'( :'( and maybe it's too late for me! I'll go even further: definitely won't be a surprise when in some point all the other Seville's years - 1956, 1957, 1958 and 1960 (specially the 1960 as a "consolation prize" for the 1959 "orphans") will rise too
So... numbers above U$ 100k in any decent '59 Seville? I hope not since I still want to buy one and my budget is tight ;D ;D
But unfortunately this is a likely scenario :-[
Unless a new crisis slows down the market... a new financial crisis are coming soon, is certain - but if it'll sensibly affect the collector's car market as in 2008/09, is still a mistery...
Still looking... any tips or help are welcome
