Well, here I had assumed for years that Pierre Cardin’s only involvement with automobiles was the 1972-1973 Javelin with the special Cardin-designed interior, then today I come across this 1981 Cadillac Eldorado Evolution by Pierre Cardin for sale on Hemmings.com. This time, Mr. Cardin went all out with body modifications as well as interior mods. I wonder if there are any other Cardin cars I don’t yet know about? From the seller’s description:
