You are viewing the king of luxury "barge cars" of the early 1970's. A 1973 CADILLAC FLEETWOOD BROUGHAM. Nothing was longer or heavier - not Lincoln or Imperial of that era. The only car in standard production which was larger, was the Cadillac series 75 (which was the commerical chassis for ambulances, herses, and limousines.) If you owned a Fleetwood Brougham sedan, it was a status symbol in American culture before the downsizing and fuel crisis that soon followed.

The interior of the car is a must see. No cracks, sun-fading, rips, tears, dents, or stains. Car has been garage kept most all of its life.   The interior is olive green leather with embroidery (...goovy). Carpeting is all original, thick, with no stains. The rear seat passengers have carpeted leg rests - a feature only found on the Fleetwoods. All electrics operate on the car - power windows, locks, and the driver's six-way power seat.   The front seat is a split 60/40 design.    All interior lights work including the reading lights on the "C Panel". What does not work is the power antenna (maybe a wire).

Original rubber (color correct) floor mats with the Cadillac crest come with the car. The gold vinyl roof is all original and is superior! The exterior paint is the original factory Phoenix Gold Firemist with maintained areas (an extra charge option back then). So The flanks of the car are good as are the horizontal surfaces. The very hard-to-find plastic fender fillers (1973 was the first model year for these due to the Federal Government mandate of 5 mph bumpers, which this car has) are all there.

Air conditioning is R12. Blower is strong, and the air conditioning does blow super cold air. The caddy built 472 engine is strong coupled to a massive Turbo-Hydramatic 400 automatic transmission which does have a very slow leak. It is not enough to have the seal changed.

Underneath is excellant with NO RUST. Engine does not burn oil. No smoke from exhaust. No rust in the trunk with all of the original trunk carpeting including an original Cadillac rubber trunk mat.

I have owned this car since November of 2008 and I love it, but must sell it for room. I have had it garage kept. I have rebuilt the quadrajet carb and upgraded the exhaust with new muffler and tailpipes. removed all ca smog equip and have installed a custom bypass pulley.    This piece of equipment is unique. The front is stunning! The Fleetwood standard hood stand-up Cadillac wreathed crest is missing.   Talk about over the top... anybody looking at this monster rolling up behind them on the highway will take notice!

I have the original window sticker with all of the original factory installed options. Plus additional original brochures from 1973. Included with the sale of the car will be a nice softback book about Cadillacs. What a great package of Cadillac nostalgia for the Cadillac enthusiest.

The car will be sold with the brochures and hardback book. I am requesting only serious bidders for this car. If you are knowledgable about this era of American cars - this is an outstanding example for you to consider. The car does need to be restored to be able to say its a "10". - but....this would be an easy restoration job, with hardly any work to be done on the interior and some work on the exterior. No re-chroming needed. Come see this car and what AMERICAN ENGINEERING was all about.

There was only 24,800 Fleetwoods made in 1973. Only the 1973 models have the unique "beaver tail" rear end bumper. Starting in 1974, these vehicles had a restyle keeping the same dimensions. Few 1973's are on the road today. This one is very driveable today and a head turner AS IS.

Cadillac caught testing the upcoming XT3 SUV again

Mon, Feb 20 2017

Days ago, the Cadillac XT3 was caught covered in more black plastic bags than an average Home Depot can hold. Now, more photos have surfaced of the compact crossover doing cold weather testing, still wearing binliner camo. There are still details that can be detected from underneath all the make-up, as the car wears a familiar Cadillac grille and edgy LED headlights. The rear shots do show tail lights fashioned into the camouflage, but those might be there just to throw everybody off: the C-pillars have lights way up from the usual spots, and that might be the location for the actual tail lights, giving the car characteristically narrow Cadillac style lighting in the rear. To match the German competition in this segment, it is likely that the XT3 will be powered by four-cylinder turbocharged engines, and the intercooler under the front bumper can be a confirmation of this.

Weekly Recap: Auto execs face life in prison for recall delays under proposed legislation

Sat, 09 Aug 2014

The stiff punishments are part of broader transportation legislation, but clearly McCaskill has automakers in her sights.
Missouri Senator Claire McCaskill threw down the gauntlet this week, proposing a bill that could send auto executives to prison for life if they were found to have delayed a recall. She also wants to eliminate the limit for fines for auto safety violations, which are currently capped at $35 million.
