wheelman, you need to make a trip down here! today alone I saw six white '80s Town Cars for sale, all in good shape. And rust free. In fact, I know of a black on black one with a cloth top and wires that's for sale too. It's not in the best condition, but not a junker by any means.

i don't have much reliable info about the vehicle. i bought it this past december with 180,000 miles. it had been repainted a few years ago by MAACO. the guy i bought it from said MAACO used the vin number to match the paint to original. the paint you see in that pic is black on tan, but the tan color sometimes look olive. it's pretty cool and people are always complementing the colors. but, once you get within 5 feet you can see many imperfections. the roof looks like it had a vinyl top on it, but was removed. the previous owner had maaco paint over rust. but you can't really tell from afar.

fast forward to this month, someone hit the driver's side door and caused approx. $1,000 in damage. the first thing the body shop i had it repaired at told me it wasn't original, it was probably just a bunch of pigment maaco had lying around mixed together and they wouldn't be able to match it perfectly. i got the car back a week ago and the paint they sprayed is better quality, but it's lighter and doesn't have the olive tint to it. i'm not exactly in love with the color blend but they told me the truth up front so i'm satisfied.

thanks for the compliments, i'm amazed every time someone comments my beater cadillac. i just have to keep them at least 5 feet away.

Re: Post a pic of your RWD Caddy!

Okay, so I finally got some pictures of my Phaeton after the polishing, their not the best pics, but their something. The sides look great, but the top surfaces are still a little dull because they take on more sun I guess.

85 Fleetwood Brougham after a fresh wash. This was already a year ago, I need to take some new pics. I just buffed and waxed it and tinted the windows. Also I'll find some pics of it next to my dad's white '82 Coupe De Ville

Re: Post a pic of your RWD Caddy!

Chad,

I'm planing on the Phaeton because I'd love to take a road trip in it. Second choice is the '90. I don't want to put the miles on the '83. Plus the HT4100 isn't exactly the ultimate thrill on the highway...


MaineWater, as stated about half an inch up, it's a 1983. 49,000 original miles.

Ben, about a half-hour of wetsanding and that paint would shine like brand new! Those pics are stellar, can't wait to see it in May.
