![[Image: capture11ol7.9174.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/0is399/capture11ol7.9174.jpg) I guess Pimp-mobile would not be a proper make.  |

Or can it be a Stutz? |

A Stutz' grille protrudes in front of the bumper. I think it could be an Excalibur? |

I believe this is a heavily customized mid-'70s Cadillac ElDorado, most likely a '73-'76. Those chrome, ad-on headlight "pods" were popular aftermarket pieces for those cars, as were the Rolls-Royce knockoff grilles. |

I agree with Skid, also the rear view mirror is Cadillac as well as the windshield. |

This is supposed to be another Les Dunham customized Corvorado which was made by Les Dunham in Boonton,NJ Therefore it's a "Corvorado", as called by Les Dunham Coach. The chassis of the car is from a mid-1970's Corvette and was fitted with Cadillac body panels, it became a half Corvette and half Eldorado(hence Corvorado). -- Last edit: 2011-02-01 17:49:48 |

This is indeed a Dunham Coach Corvorado Superfly, one of eight custom built by Les Dunham. It's not a Cadillac, but a Corvette frame with Cadillac body panels and Dunham's legendary modifications. We already know this sort of conversion from "Live and let die" /v017906.html Further reading and a better picture: Link to "www.hemmings.com" |

My uncle owns this car It's a 1967 Eldorado customized by Les Dunham. This car was also in Fort Apache The Bronx with Paul Newman. My uncle also owns the Live And Let Die Pimpmobile. That one is a Corverado. The front end is real sheet metal and the rest is fiberglass. Replicas are complete fiberglass. |

@marcosbee: You may be mixing up cars here and this one isn't your uncle's Cadillac. Please check the shape of the opened door, especially in the thumbnail - that's not a Cadillac door, but it perfectly matches the Corvorado door as seen in 'Live and Let Die'. The car seen above also lacks the faux spare tires, while your uncle's car in 'Fort Apache The Bronx' (seen below) has them. Les Dunham's website also shows the Superman scene from above and declares that a Corvorado was used. Nevertheless, thank you for your contribution. I'm very pleased to learn two Les Dunham custom cars are still around, owned by your family. .gif ":)") |
