Looking for a 1959 Cadillac Eldorado Seville for sale

Cash on hands but slightly tight budget... up to $ 80k ~ $ 85k

In any conditions, but only non-rusted straight cars even than needing a complete restoration

I have a strong preference for a “hampton green”, “persian sand” or even an “argyle blue” car and (also) a "fully loaded" (air cond., cruise control and autronic eye) car â€" about the color/trim, doesn't matter its current condition, color painted and interior because, about my preference above listed, I'll consider the "ID-Tag" data info. - that is, which matters to me it's the "factory"/original features/color/options/trim (not the current and - eventually - non-original color etc.)...   

Despite my color/trim preferences, I'll consider any 1959 Seville as well - anyway, I'd like to do the "best buy" with my budget!

If you own a Seville and are willing to sell it, please, send me a private message!    

I thanks in advance!

You know about this car already.  The seller initially had it as a raffle, but canceled it, as it was illegal, then he now has it on consignment.  he bought it from a local guy in Northern California and put air bags on it.

Yes...  in fact, what I don't like in this car is that it was restored “out” from its factory features (color, trim etc.) and still have that extra detail of the non-original suspension â€"the buyer will pay for a “restored” car but that would have to redo it over again to its original color/trim, take off these aftermarket air suspension etc.  :(   even for a restored Seville I think U$ 130k quite expensive for this car... this guy has been trying to inflate the 1959 Seville market with that history about "just 30 Seville survivors" (that we know isn't real)  >:D  ;D ;D ;D

Looks like a "decent" car, but for $90k it has
some issues.  The original air suspension was
removed and it is not a body off restoration --
the underside was not detailed. 

In addition, those wire wheels are not correct
for a '59.  Repainted resale red which was not
the original color.

Interior looks a little puffy and wrinkled , and the door panel stainless being painted doesn’t add anything to the car , could write a 2 page list off all the things come incorrectly on this car , definitely not a 90k car

What’s the old saying sucker born every minute ? The screws drilled into the the center of the stainless on the door panels is always a nice touch .

Well... this red one really sounds expensive for U$ 89k - personally, I'd rather to pay for a car needing a complete restore than a wrong or bad "redone" car... but is impressive that was sold in just 3 days since was listed! I have been scared by these latest prices on the few '59 Sevilles recently listed... what I have noticed is there are few 1959 Sevilles left in the USA... and most of the good survivors are in Europe nowadays... and never for sale

Less than two years ago I saw three VERY nice '59 Sevilles being sold at really fair prices... since then, nothing more really nice and/or in a fair price has been listed for sale  :-\

I hope so, Ray  :D

I'm trying to track some well known Sevilles that were sold along the last 8 ~ 10 years, but until now, no good news
