1959
Cadillac DeVille Convertible

The 1959 Cadillac DeVille convertible represents the pinnacle of American automotive design excess — a 5.7-metre-long luxury machine with 42-inch tall tail fins, a 325-hp V8, and enough chrome to plate a fleet of lesser vehicles. A cultural icon of prosperity, excess, and American self-confidence.
