My mother's 84 FWB was looking a little neglected, so I invited her out to my place so I could give it a wash and go over the interior. I thought it turned out well, so I snapped a few pics for you guys. She has had the car since 1990, and still uses it as a daily from April to November. Original paint, mint leather, and perfect white crest mats inside. Even her trunk mat looks brand new. I was at her house yesterday and I charged the AC for her so it works perfectly now. Enough rambling, here's her car:

It's the blue, non-d'elegance. The tufted seats before they went to the pleats. I went to take some interior pics, and ran out of memory. I'll get some soon...
I'm trying to talk her into a set of wires for it:thumbsup:
Thanks for the kind words, I'll send her the link to the thread. When my 81 is done (same colors) we'll do a "brochure style" photo shoot with the coupe and the sedan. I think it will look pretty cool...

Beautiful Fleetwood! I love those wide Caddy longbodies from the past----much better than the much shorter,narrower Caddys of the present.
