1958 Cadillac Skylight Coupe Concept by Pininfarina

The Italian coachbuilder Pininfarina manufactured two convertibles and two coupés for Cadillac. The design of the Cadillac Skylight was noticeably smoother than that of previous Cadillac concept cars. The radiator grille with thin, horizontal chrome bars stretched across the entire vehicle width and reached around the vehicle corners. Above it sat twin headlights, under which rectangular indicators were embedded in the grille. The front and rear of the vehicle were tilted forward; the tail fins towered high. The spoked wheels wore whitewall tires.


Between 1958 and 1961, the Italian coachbuilder Pinin Farina - whose company name was changed to Pininfarina (in one word) in 1961 - drew great inspiration from the Cadillac Eldorado Brougham project. During that time, they designed and built four exclusive, custom bodies.
