FOR SALE: Elvis Presley's 1970 Cadillac Eldorado Guitar Car by Jay Ohrberg

The 1970 Cadillac Eldorado Guitar Car, created by legendary Hollywood car customizer Jay Ohrberg, is one of the most outrageous custom vehicles ever built—and it was made for none other than Elvis Presley.

Starting with a standard front-wheel-drive Cadillac Eldorado, Ohrberg and his team sliced the car in half and inserted a long center section styled like a guitar fretboard, turning the car into a 41-foot-long rolling tribute to rock 'n' roll. The rear end was completely reworked to resemble a guitar body, complete with jet-inspired tail fins and wild custom detailing. Under the hood remained the Eldorado's original 8.2-litre V8, one of the largest production car engines ever made.

Elvis reportedly used the Guitar Car to arrive at his Las Vegas shows, cementing its status as an icon of over-the-top showbiz extravagance. Like many of Ohrberg’s creations (his credits include the original Pink Panther car), the Guitar Car vanished from the spotlight after its moment of fame.

Strangely, it has resurfaced on eBay in Orléans, France, in worn condition and in need of a full restoration. Its journey from Vegas to rural France remains a mystery—fitting for a car as eccentric and legendary as its original owner.
