704, that is the total number of these classics that Cadillac produced one by one by hand over two years. The pinnacle of 50’s Cadillac engineering and design, these cars cost more than Bentleys or Roll Royce cars of their day. The Brougham included luxury features standard that were revolutionary for their time. This included 6-way power seats with memory, power door locks, power windows (including the vent wings), automatic dimming headlights. Some of the features were so new that they were prone to issues, especially the air ride suspension. Broughams were recalled, fixing their suspension issue by converting them to traditional coil springs and shocks. This Brougham shows it was converted using original factory-spec parts, which is rare.
