As of May 21, 2025, this is the information we have about this car:
[Feb.01.2017] Car #287 was reported sold as Lot #732 at the annual Barrett-Jackson auction in Scottsdale, AZ, in January 2002. I've seen two prices quoted for the same car: $87,500 and $94,500. It was reported to have a new interior by Jenkins of NC. The car was offered again for sale at the Barrett-Jackson venue, in Scottsdale, in January 2003. Makes you wonder if there is any truth in these grandiose auction sale results. So far as I can see, it is not unusual for the same cars to cross the block in Scottsdale a number of times in a row! I guess the purpose is to drive up the prices. Hemmings had it advertised again in June, 2003, for $110,000 ! Duh ! This is possibly also the car offered at auction by RM Classics in January, 2005 as Lot #071 [same color, same trim]. http://automotivewharehouse.com/10711953954119FL_1100_1072.dat.htmlA car very much like this one (red/red) was again offered for sale on the Internet in June, 2005: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=4554538211Is it this one ? The minimum bid was $90K; there were NO bidders. Late Extra [9/2005]: This just in from Eldorado "detective", Jerry Jansson of Sweden : GXM Auto Wholesalers sell government seizures. New Hummers that the government must sell are being auctioned off for as little as $50. Used car dealers are not legally allowed to bid on these cheap vehicles. [They have in abeyance] Drug Seized 1953 CADILLAC ELDORADO; THIS CAR IS NUMBER 287 OF 533BUILT IN 1953. IT IS EQUIPPED WITH POWER WINDOWS, POWER SEAT, POWER TOP, BRAND NEW TIRES.The photos of this 1953 CADILLAC ELDORADO for sale can be seen here [Click for Pics of the drug seized 1953 CADILLAC ELDORADO]. EXTERIOR COLOR Aztec Red. INTERIOR COLOR Red/White. LOCATION Pompano Beach FL. PRICE $110000 It & #146;s always fun when the bad guys get it!!! But I suspect you have to be dealing some illegal substances to be able to afford these cars!
