Model history and curiosity

Cadillac introduced its first four-door hard-top, the Sedan de Ville, in 1956. When Cadillac revisited all of its models in 1957, the Sixty Special adopted a pillarless body, thus becoming similar to the Sedan de Ville.

In 1957, sales of the Sixty Special reached 24,000 units. The chrome slits that characterized the Sixty Specials from 1942 were replaced by a chrome panel that occupied the lower part of the rear fenders. The “Sixty Special” lettering was eliminated, but reappeared, only for one year, in 1958. Air conditioning and a parking brake operated by a pedal were offered as options.

The 6 L overhead valve V8 engine from the previous series was retained, although it was redeveloped and now produced 300 HP of power. Electric windows and power brakes were offered as standard.

Despite the restyling of the models performed in 1957, Cadillac's attention was focused on the Eldorado Brougham. This model, however, did not threaten the sales of the Sixty Special, given that the Eldorado Brougham was hand-built in a limited series and had a double price compared to the first.

There was only one gearbox offered, the four-speed Hydra-Matic automatic. Assembled in Detroit on the General Motors C platform, this generation of Sixty Special had a front-mounted engine and rear-wheel drive.
