1984 Fleetwood Brougham, 51K miles. Bought from a woman in MI who's parents owned and passed away last year. It looked to have been maintained and needs a few things repaired. I contacted the service place they used for the service records. Overall the paint is in pretty good condition all though the hood has paint checking, probably worse on the drivers side for some reason. One small ding on the drivers door and that I will have an auto body shop try to remove. The rear bumper chrome around the taillight had a small dent and I replaced that. No scuff or scrapes on the wire hubcaps, near show quality.
Leather interior was clean and I conditioned it. It looks like maybe Ziebart did the rustproofing.

Here is the 1996 Fleetwood after a wash and an engine bay detail.

It's been running real nice after the fuel pump assembly was replaced. I had to replace the belt too as it was squealing like a stuck pig. Nice and quiet now - the way a Cadillac should be.

So there I was, innocently driving cars at the Mecum auction a week ago, and this followed me home . . .

1993 Fleetwood. I've clayed, polished, and waxed the hood (see the reflections?), and polished and waxed the top (clay hadn't arrived, but it clearly wants it).


To the left you see a bit of an '02 DeVille DHS waiting to be scrapped (I hadn't known whether I would find another DHS or a Fleetwood, and would have felt foolish buying my own parts back. I'll pull the telescoping/tilting wheel mechanism and a few other things before it goes), and the '95 base Eldorado parts car waiting to be a donor to my '97 ETC to the right.

THIS THREAD IS TOTALLY USELESS WITHOUT PICS !

Especially that motor.

And the undercarriage.

Seriously, you won't believe how close your rig is to an '82 Park Ave. Electra I did decades ago. 390 horse 455, Damn near identical suspension down to the heim joints lol....
And it was white vinyl/white --> bordello oxblood velour <--

If serious about selling, it needs to go in the FS section.
