Fleetwood Limousines

I notice that all the limousines from 1993-96 are base model Fleets .I ever don't remember seeing a Fleetwood Brougham limousine .So, is there any particular reason for livery business that they ordered base model Fleets aside from Brougham package being more expensive ?

Re: Fleetwood Limousines

I'm pretty sure that the reason they didn't order broughams was simply that the builders had make a complete custom order to get what they wanted on the base models and the brougham option package wasn't it.

I sure wish my 6-door had the brougham comfort features, but I'm not being paid by the hour to haul around a bunch of mourners. I am lucky enough to have leather, I guess.

Re: Fleetwood Limousines

Correct. Brougham was a fancier trim package, as far as seats, etc., and limo converters are focused on largely "fleet" level vehicles--rather than chop and extend the most decked out versions possible, they focus on specific base'ish models with the desired suspension, cooling, etc. upgrades. Another reason why just because a lot of these cars see a LOT of HD driving and wear, and the most focus is on back seat passenger features, so it isn't a biggie that the chauffeur has heat or memory in his seats.

Same way that you would see new Performance or Lux III edition DTS's or Town Car Cartier's (or whatever the current top trim is) made into livery vehicles.
