George and Nancy Weaver, of East Earl, Pennsylvania, had the right combination of car, presentation, and quality all wrapped up in their magnificent 1957 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz, to snag the Motor Trend Classic Trophy at this year’s Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance. It was a difficult choice, with a field full of Cobras and Ferrari Daytonas, but this big Caddy spoke to me as a car I’d really enjoy driving back from Amelia Island Florida, back to our LA area offices. I’d keep that top down, sing to myself, and just cruise, baby. This dual-quad Caddy has the power to haul, but what’s the rush. It’s all about style. I’d also check in with road chef, author, and TV host Guy Fieri for his recommendation of all the diners, drive-ins, and dives that I should check out as I traversed the southern United States in this decidedly dreamy ride.
