The Chevrolet El Morocco was a customized full-size car produced by Canadian businessman Reuben Allender based on the 1956 and 1957 Chevrolet.

Yes, I believe you are correct that gold V is not evident on the trunk of the Caddy

John- Technically you had the 2 main ingredients. But it's not a Bel-Dorado.. (sorry man).

Blue- Your answer was 1/2 correct. If a different view of the 57 was shown, it would have been way too easy..

The 56 has a Caddy style front bumper with the dagmars.. But the hub caps on the 57 look like Oldsmobile 'spinners' to me.

Greybeard nailed it !!! .................................... & there was a 1956 El Morocco as well.

Chevrolet El Morocco Convertible - The Rarest Of The 1957 ...


The rarest of the 1957 Chevys, the “Poor Man’s Cadillac”, the El Morocco was a customized full-size car produced by Ruben Allender based on the 1956 and 1957 Chevrolet. For the first time ever, GM allowed an outsider to design a custom Chevy and this rare 1957 Chevy is an example of what happens when beauty meets beast.

Another Panel

Just slightly modified, but should be an easy one.
