CADILLAC CONCEPT CARS: AMELIA ISLAND!


A fleet of iconic Cadillac  Motorama and Detroit Auto Show Concept Cars will take to the field at the 18th Annual Amelia Island Concours.




 


Unlike many show cars of the Fifties, Cadillac's Motorama Concept Cars revealed the future in their lines, options, trim and colors. The quad headlights of the ‘55 Cadillac Eldorado Brougham Concept Car were GM's first use of the four-headlight layout that became standard GM styling practice in 1957. The ‘59 Cadillac Cyclone, above, featured sliding doors, predating the design nexus of all minivans.



Cadillac's Concept Cars will be featured in the Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance on Sunday March 10, 2013 include the ‘49 Cadillac Fleetwood Coupe De Ville prototype, two ‘53 Le Mans roadsters, above,‘53 Eldorado Special, ‘56 Eldorado Brougham Town Car, ‘59 Cyclone, ‘61 Eldorado (Chicago Auto Show car), the ‘02 Cien, and the massive, 1,000-horsepower ‘03 Cadillac Sixteen, lead photo.
