1953 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible - Used in the movie My One and Only

  Almost as much of a star as its fellow cast. including Renée Zellweger and Logan Lerman. this vehicle played the family's get-away from a troubled life in New York in the 2009 movie My One and Only. Since filming. it has been featured  in several magazines including Cadillac Self Starter and Old Cars Weekly.  

                                                               


 Originally from California. I  purchased this car in Hollywood as a 95% rust-free white car with a black interior. It is one of the last 1953 Eldorados produced. I have added the pictures of the interior to the car.
Original running gear
Original body. minimal rust except for some by the rear wheelsEngine Lube Tag in door jamb with Serial #Cowl Tag is present. notes body #529
Two 1953 Cadillac Eldorado Convertibles were used for the movie. This is 1 out of the 2 used to play the main car. Two were used in order to have back-ups. as there were many scenes where the cars were required to drive very fast. The other car is currently overseas. The shooting for the movie took place over the summer of 2008 in Baltimore. MD and New Mexico. This Eldorado was redone for the movie. but has not been cleaned thoroughly since filming. The movie company had actually sprayed the car with dirt for effects. and that dirt has not been cleaned off since. For some scenes. the car was not driven but rather pulled on a trailer with Renée driving and filmed that way. For this. the windshield was sometimes removed. It has since been put back in. Wire wheels will be supplied with this car. Full wheel covers were used in the movie due to the wire wheels making the car appear to be moving backwards on film.
Modifications done to the car for the movie include:New chromeNew convertible top (installed 2008 for filming)New windshield and correct wipersExterior painted a grey-blue5 wire rims will be included (not used in the movie)It has been stored in Maryland since filming.  New interior (since the movie I have had it redone once more. but has not been installed and still remains boxed in perfect condition. I have the interior used in the movie boxed as well. ) If you do not wish to have the interior that is pictured. I do have some core interiors and I can give instead of what is pictured with white/blue.
