Currently listed for sale on AutoHunter is this 1961 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz convertible. As a member of Cadillac’s upper series, the Biarritz was the only Eldorado offered for 1961, down from three in 1960. Powering this Caddy is a rebuilt 390ci V-8 backed by a four-speed Hydra-Matic transmission. Features include air conditioning, power windows and door locks, remote trunk release, factory AM radio with modern Pioneer system in the glove box, and more. Painted blue with a white power top over a white leather interior, this classic 1960s cruiser comes from the selling dealer with a clear title.
The blue hue replaces the Jade metallic that was originally sprayed on this car’s flanks. Other features include a white power convertible top, lower body longitudinal chrome, and adjustable side mirrors with remote control for the driver’s side. The trunk features a remote release via a button in the glove box. A set of 15-inch steel wheels with Cadillac wheel covers is wrapped in 225/75 Vitour Galaxy whitewall radials.
The cabin features leather upholstery with a six-way power front bench seat with center armrest. Other features include power windows and door locks, power ventipanes, air conditioning, two-spoke steering wheel with power assist, power brakes, column-mounted automatic shifter, and factory AM radio assisted by a Bluetooth-compatible Pioneer FM/CD/USB/Aux system neatly tucked in the glove box.
Instrumentation includes a 120-mph speedometer and gauges for the coolant temperature and fuel level. The odometer currently shows 854 miles, although it has rolled over.
The rebuilt 390ci V-8 has about 12,000 miles on it. With a four-barrel carburetor, it was rated at 325 horsepower when new. It is backed by a four-speed Hydra-Matic automatic transmission.
The undercarriage features upgraded power front disc brakes, 3.00 gears, and a single-outlet exhaust system.
You may think of the 1950s when you see a finned Caddy, but the 1961 Cadillac was a clear evolution of what came before it — simply glance at the 1959 Cadillac Cyclone concept car to see the influence. Cars like the subject of our AutoHunter Spotlight were premium American cars that few could afford, but they also showed that Cadillac continued to be the style leader in the industry. With top-tier looks and luxury for its time, this 1961 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz convertible is ripe for new ownership — will it be you? If so, you need to submit your top bid before Monday, June 29, 2026, at 11:45 a.m. (PDT).
