A Farina-designed Cadillac "Starlight" from around 1961 judging from the multi-piece hubcaps.

It does look somewhat like it.



You will find that car here:

Hey Hugo90, 

Great guesses on the (maybe) Russo sports cars!  This Caddy,  Ultra didn't say I was wrong--and I don't think I am, but...?   The big difference between the Starlight and the Jacqueline is that the latter has flush headlamps and the Starlight's jut forward a few inches.  Wondering if Ultra has a different name for it.

I don't know the name.  Karn does.  He will be by here in about 4 or 5 hours now and let us know.
