Not sure if anyone posted this yet but it's worth a look. Love it... despite the trunk rack. (apologies to any rack fans)

Will be interesting to see what the high bid is.

Triple white, wires, and the 5.7L; too bad the sunroof isn't original. My favorite part is the steering wheel. 1990 was the only year it was optional to have the wheel leather-wrapped from 90-92 styling. So only a few have 90-92 Burlwood trim on the wheel. All others are leather-wrapped, and the 80's unwrapped ones are lighter in color. Too bad those wheels always crack though; you'd think they would have perfected it in the previous 50 years. :confused:

I wonder, if you cut the leather off a wheel, will it have the wood trim underneath? Or was that omitted? And do leather-wrapped wheels crack underneath?

Astro-roof was not factory? Sure looks right to me... but I'm no expert.

I've thought the same thing and I vote you be the first to try it!

Yeah, it's an aftermarket, but so are about 90% of the sunroofs/moonroofs you'll find on Fleetwoods/Broughams, most of which look very OEM.

Beautiful car. Much as I appreciate a nice rack ;) this car would look slicker without that particular piece of chrome.

I'm definitely much more in the darker color camp when it comes to these cars. I always think the white cars with red carpet and dash look a bit too Pimp http://www.pclincs.co.uk/Forums/images/smilies/pimp.gif

I posted this earlier....This one's been on ebay several times. Must be something wrong with it since none of the high bidders have collected it.

OK now I get it. Last picture it totally looks aftermarket. And the switch on the ceiling is wrong. Can't believe I missed it first time 'round.
:alchi:

Yeah the stark contrast between white leather and a colored dash is a little bit bling-like. But white on the outside looks great if you have all one color inside. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad if the dash and wheel were white, too, but that was never offered. Though somehow on the Dukes of Hazzard, Boss Hog's Eldo had a white dash, though I think it was altered for the movie. White also seems to look dirtier when it may not be. The seatbelts and headliner in those cars always look yellowed. That reminds me, were the velour seats ever offered in white?

As for the astroroof, I would have just gotten a switch from the junk yard and make it as factory as possible. But don't the factory astroroof switches have a bigger sunken section of the headliner backing than regular cars?
