Vehicle Description
Introduced in 1971, the Cadillac 60 Special was a full size luxury
car which had one of the most spacious interiors of any car in the
world. Weighing in at an impressive 5,000 lbs, the standard model
including reading lamps, automatic level control, dual comfort
front seats and more. RWD and a stout frame meant that the cars
were extremely durable and were even rated to tow up to 7,000 lbs.
While offered in the popular 4-door sedan bodystyle, some customers
desired more space but they had to turn to aftermarket companies.
Very few wagons were made by just a few companies and very little
is known about them.
GR Auto Gallery is pleased to bring this unique 1974 Cadillac
Fleetwood Brougham 60 special wagon to the market. Due to a number
of exterior and interior modifications, the conversion is believed
to have been completed by Wisco, a Michigan based coachbuilder,
however not much is known other than that. Some sources claim there
are less than a dozen wagon conversions produced by this company,
although we have no proof to back it up. There is a dashboard
plaque that says the vehicle was custom made for a Renee Levin,
who, according to the internet was a well loved equestrion who
lived in Michigan. This adds a bit of mystique to the vehicle's
history. Equipped with the standard 472cid V8 and 3-speed TH400
automatic, this is pretty standard mechanically. The exterior is in
decent shape, with a pretty straight and rust free body. The brown
metallic paint is in good shape but has the random imperfections
and a few bubbles. The tan padded vinyl top is in great shape and
features a chrome roof rack. 15in whitewall tires are mounted on
factory wheels with wire wheel covers. The chrome trim is in decent
shape and the large "El Clasico" grill and hood ornament are custom
from the coach builder. The tan interior is pretty much factory and
features leather seating for 8. The seats are in great shape but
the driver's does have a rip. The dash is crack free and there are
a number of custom trim upgrades. The car is equipped with cruise
control, power windows, power seats, power sunroof, power locks,
and air conditioning.
These wagons are extremely rare and this is the first that GRAG has
had the pleasure of offering. A solid driver, this car can be an
excellent and unique daily driver or the perfect candidate for a
restoration. The possabilities are endless for this unique American
land yacht!
