Vehicle scenes from the movie "The Artist"

well, there wasn't much left of a Cadillac was there? And engine block, exhaust manifolds, steering, front fenders... but was any of that kept? Regardless, the car that was made is magnificent, and the call sheet says it was a 31 year job to make it as you now see it displayed below

see it and marvel at what a beautiful car it is, at the San Diego Auto Museum

one of 304, 1958 Cadillac Eldorado Brougham

what they left off this call out card is extensive, but in a nutshell it was the most expensive car made that year:  $13,074... for the 1958 Cadillac Brougham. $2000 more than the Rolls Royce that year (Hot Rod Deluxe May 2008, Page 42)
