Description[]
The Custom '59 Cadillac is a Hot Wheels casting which debuted in the 2002 First Editions Series and was designed by Mark Jones. It is based on a customized version of the real-life 1959 Cadillac Eldorado with the most notable custom feature being its chopped roofline.
It has seen several releases over the years, with one being the 2006 Treasure Hunt release with a rare black interior. Some of these were found included with Hot Wheels backpacks, while some were found on the Treasure Hunt card.
