64 eldorado burritz on mecum vegas last night

[Kim K Kaiser]

hi ,

been a while, had to make the trek to MS in the diesel, and while traveling, the injectors went out,, what a major expense, dealer want 7k to put in..  i saved about 4k doing them myself,, no easy chore for sure....but,, 

i did see a eldo convert burritz get up to about 120k, i was nodding off and didnt notice if it sold at that or was still bidding,, but it was sure a nice looking car,

a 62 convert got up to about 60+ i think,,, it also looked very nice,, i kinda like that low panel rear fin,, 

anyway, hope all is well,,

Did you get some pictures?  If so post and share.
Also, just a nitpick, but there is a 1963 Eldorado Biarritz, and a 1964 Fleetwood Eldorado but no such animal as a 64 Eldorado Biarritz. Your message references a 62 convertible... so it would be interesting to see what was there.

Shame on Mecum ... but it was and still is a common mistake to refer the 1964 Eldorado as the Biarritz.
Might want to check out this Help Page topic:

I agree with Tony on the fender skirts on a 64 Eldo's.(No offence meant to any owners of one)

The full fender skirt is the way to go, but I understand Cadillac's theory on them)

As for the continental kits, oh dear, you'd rather have a huge boil on ya scrotum. The late 50's Thunderbird get away with them.... just.
