All,
I am a new CLC Member and new owner of a 1957 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz.  I am looking for an original Eldorado convertible manual and an original data book, both 1957 vintage.

I am aware of the convertible book on eBay for sale by Faxon.  However $395 seemed too high a price.  Does anyone have either manual they would be willing to sell?

Thanks John. I checked in with both and they unfortunately don't have the Cadillac Eldorado convertible manual.  Will have to keep an eye out here and on other sites.  Thank you for the leads.

What are you referring to? There is no specific service manual for the Biarritz. There is the 1957 Service manual. Not specific to Biarritz although there are references within.
Original data books cover the whole range. Not specific to the Biarritz.

Eldorado Brougham has its own service manual. But that is a different animal.

I'm looking for the 1957 Cadillac Eldorado convertible top owners manual.  Faxon has one for $395 but after speaking with a few people that doesn't seem to be a reasonable market rate.  So I am looking for alternatives.
