January 1953, white Cadillac Eldorado, Body number 002 with red and white interior, was made famous when Ike and Mamie Eisenhower rode in it during Ike's inaugural parade.  Rumor had it that GM made of gift of that Eldorado to Ike however GM records showed it was returned and in Company Service.  It was then shipped to New York in August 1953 presumably for sale.  Eight years later in the early spring of 1961 after leaving Washington we find Ike and Mamie rolling over the hills near the Eisenhower Farm in Gettysburg, PA, in a white '53 Eldorado.  Coincidence? If you believe in that sort of thing.I painted the black interior in red and white from pictures of the '53 Eldorado interior.  Again Welley needed to have something in the back seat.  This time a suitcase.  I left it black this time.  Dash board is red, white and chrome(silver Sharpie, gotta get me one of those Molotow chrome pens) and the seats are red and white.  White is not visible because Dwight, Mamie and the suitcase. I also added loose leaf reinforcement white walls to the tires.
