Sinatra & Dean Martin Cars Up for Auction

Classic cars owned by Rat Pack-ers Dean Martin and Frank Sinatra will be auctioned off in Carmel, CA on August 14 during Bonhams' annual Collectors' Automobilia and Motorcars sale at the Quail Lodge Resort and Golf Club. Sinatra's car is a 1958 Cadillac Eldorado Brougham, estimated at $275,000 - $325,000, and Martin's is a beautiful 1962 Ghia L6.4 coupe (above), one of only 26 made by Italian coachbuilder Carrozzeria Ghia, estimated at $185,000 - $225,000. Both cars have bespoke touches; Sinatra's Caddy features an original set of magnetic shot glasses and a cigarette case in the glove box, while Martin's Ghia comes with set of custom fitted calfskin luggage matching the tan leather upholstery.

The 1958 Eldorado Brogham came with shot glasses, and a cigarette case as well as perfume and a note pad, this was not a bespoke feature.
