        Comments:

        The "Custom Eldorado" is one of "Detroits", as the real American made models in the Topper line up are known. It is a lightly customized version of the 1968 Cadillac
        Eldorado. Like the other 7 Cars from the Great Eight, it came in a mirrored finish with open doors, standard finish with open or sealed doors.

        Shawn's Take!

        Rarest are red, rootbeer, purple and honey gold. The other purples, the blues, "redorange", gold, orange, lime, teal, pine green, olive green (sort of en enamel pea green),
        copper and chocolate follow those. The rarest color I know of is light orange. It's almost a golden orange color. Generally Eldo's aren't too pricey with most colors in the
        $160 to $220 range. A sweet chocolate brown or the light orange could push the $400 mark. Sealed door versions are almost always the dark blue/teal and occasionally
        gold and green. I have only ever seen one in red and I've never seen an S/D with a red interior. A good one in teal will start around $400 with the only red one I've ever
        seen sold for just over $1K. Mirrors in C8 or better start around $200 for lavender, orange, red, blue and gold. Gold with a white interior will usually push the $500 mark.
        But the green mirror is the most expensive, by color, with $800 common and up to a grand not unheard of...
