 Cadillac Eldorado history 1960
Cadillac tempered its outlandish fins for 1960, the year that marked the division's last use of triple two-barrel carburetion as standard Eldorado issue.
The Brougham didn't contain as much gadgetry, either, although the rear quarter windows retracted a bit for easier entry and exit when the rear doors were opened.
In 1960, the Pininfarina (the name was legally changed in 1960) cloisonne emblems moved from the side of the front fenders to the back of the rear fenders, hubcaps were changed to a smaller disc design, and the creaseline rode lower on the body sides (seen again on the '62 models).

 Cadillac Brougham - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Cadillac has used the Brougham name on their largest, most luxurious models since 1916.
The Brougham name had been used as an option package for the Fleetwood during its 1977-1984 generation, but the move of that model to front wheel drive C-body in 1985 left the rear wheel drive Fleetwood Brougham behind as a model in its own right the next year.
The Fleetwood name returned to the RWD model with a major redesign in 1993, and Brougham again was an option package.

 Cadillac Eldorado Brougham - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Derived from a Cadillac concept vehicle exhibited during the GM Motorama of 1955, the Eldorado Brougham models of 1957 through 1960 were designed to showcase Cadillac's abilities as a maker of luxury vehicles.
While no single Cadillac stylist may be credited with the final design, the latter began on the drawing boards of Bob Scheelk, a new recruit to the GM Styling Section.
On September 15, 1955, the Cadillac Styling Section moved from its old quarters in downtown Detroit to the new, more modern General Motors Technical Center in Warren, north of the Motor City.

As a whole, the RWD Cadillac Fleetwood/Brougham was and era of a classy looking well built car with lots of chrome, style and appeal.

It's a car that has long been synonymous with success, and on the flip side, it's been the favorite car for the social elite as well as the vehicle of choice for the mafia.
