For sale in our Chicago showroom is a triple black 1976 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham. The 1970's saw some of the most flamboyant design in home interiors, fashion and of course cars and the flagship Cadillac was no exception. Up until the middle 1980's Cadillac was synonymous with size, beauty and overall elegant and luxurious styling and this car had all of that wrapped into a vehicle that by today's standards is over-the-top.
From front to back this beauty stretches 19.5 feet and had a weight of 5,213 pounds which is unheard of in production cars of today. Under the massive hood you will find no shortage of displacement with a total of 500 cubic inches and the largest production V8 engine ever made. Mated to that is the ever popular smooth shifting Turbo Hydramatic transmission that seamlessly moves this sedan up to highway speeds without hardly feeling the shift in gears.
From front to back the Fleetwood Brougham was all about luxury and style from the enormous hood ornament to the stainless trim, fender skirts, Opera lights and automatic trunk lid. On the inside you will notice no shortage of elegance with automatic climate control, tilt/telescoping steering wheel, digital clock, cruise control, power seat, full leather seating surfaces by Fleetwood, remote mirrors and adjustable rear foot rests. This car is amazingly comfortable and has been pampered by the 2 owners since new. Having only driven 66,000 miles since it left the Detroit factory, this car has been meticulously maintained and loved the way a Cadillac should be.
Hot days are not a problem as this 'Caddy has ice cold air and just cruises down the road. The brakes have recently been replaced along with lines and has had a recent tune-up with new plugs, wire and cap and rotor. The paint was resprayed about 4 years ago to keep this dream boat standing tall and a new muffler was also installed to keep that 500 Cubic Inch V8 running smooth and quiet. If you have been looking for that head-turning classic that is perfect for the open road now is your chance.
