Cadillac question

Seems I read an article about a Caddy model, about 57, 58 59, that was actually built
by some other manufacturing who took the original Caddy and added more glitz and such and these were not available from the local Caddy dealers. May have a different name even.

Sound familiar to anyone??

might have been one of these, this is a mild custom, they were better stock, Stainless Steel roofs, really nice cars, maybe Biarritz or something like that. I have seen two or three stockers that were fabulous but can't find the pictures.

Probably thinking the '57 Eldorado Barritz.

Allente's were made half here and half in Italy but in the 90s.
