The headlights were due to
a change, or anticipated change to the laws. Up till 1957, the cars in most
states could only have 2 headlights. But the laws changed in '57, and some
states were allowed 4 headlights. The manufacturers anticipated this, and some
cars were designed in '57 with 4 headlight capabilities. Eldorados and big
Lincolns had the same deal.
