1978 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham

73,400 original miles

Columbia blue (#21)

Dark blue top (C)

Blue cloth interior (#24C)

Car comes with original window sticker and paperwork

This Cadillac was purchased new at Bill Copps Cadillac in Vancouver, Washington

on November 11, 1977 by Mr. Louis Krize.

The car was lovingly cared for by Mr. Krize and was soon brought to his home in Arizona where it was used lightly and always garaged.

After Mr. Krize passed away a friend of his purchased the car from his estate and he drove the car lightly as well.

Soon after the car came to California and I was able to purchase the car.

The car has been serviced and cared for and it shows.  The car starts and runs like it should and it is smooth and powerful! All options work including level-ride and A/C and power antenna.

This is a great driving car and handles nicely around town or on the freeway.

Drive anywhere!

Every angle of this car shows nothing but beauty!

Car comes with two sets of keys and one set of uncut gold keys from 1978 in the pouch.

Interior is so original and no cuts rips tears etc.

The car has been fully serviced and needs only a new home.

Thousands of dollars just spent on the following work done this year.



New master cylinder/booster

Belts/hoses

Battery

Muffler

Cooling system flush

Transmission service

Rear differential service

Complete tune up

Rebuilt A/C system (Compressor etc) coverted to 134A

Heater core

Valve cover gaskets

New front shocks

4 new American Classic 1.6" whitewall tires

Power steering high pressure line

New fuel pump and hoses

Alignment


The only work left to do is the headliner that is loose as they all are. It is tacked up but intact and useable.

The interior is amazing and clean and soft cloth (not sunbaked) wood trim is exceptional! Door panels and dash are crack free.  The body is straight and rust free, the paint is shiny and has very few imperfections.  Look at the reflections in the paint in the pictures.  The chrome is amazing as well.  This car is clean sharp and almost a show car!  There were 36,800 Fleetwood models produced in 1978, how many remain? You see many Coupe deVilles and Sedan Deville's But very few Fleetwood models.  And when you do see them they are almost never in this great shape.  This is one you can show or drive, your choice.

Please call with questions or to make an appointment to see this amazing car.

2016 Cadillac CT6 shows crisp sense of style in leaked images

Tue, Mar 31 2015

You're looking at the 2016 Cadillac CT6, aided by the almost inevitable internet-aided leak, ahead of its debut at the New York Auto Show this week. As you can see, the overall shape is straight-edged and aggressive, and overall in keeping with what we've seen from Cadillac over the last several years. High-tech lighting clusters extend from the fender peaks all the way down in what appear to be LED strips toward the lower fascia and its rectangular fog lights. A suitably massive grille encrusted in chrome boasts one of the larger Wreath and Crest badges we've ever witnessed on a car. Under that sharply creased hood will sit a twin-turbo 3.0-liter V6 engine with 400 horsepower at its disposal, according to Cadillac, mated to an eight-speed automatic transmission. A naturally aspirated 3.6-liter V6 will also be available, we're told. We may wish for an edgier range-topping sedan from Cadillac, but it's not really fair to draw any real conclusions from just one leaked image. In other words, stay tuned, 'cause the rest of the story won't be far behind.

2015 Cadillac Escalade blings its way into LA

Thu, 21 Nov 2013

The new Cadillac Escalade sauntered out onto the Los Angeles Auto Show stage, showing off its new familial face and redesigned interior. That exterior, with its slim, wrap-over headlights and tall, vertical taillights (both made up of LEDs) is a subtle but significant departure from the past styling of General Motors' flagship SUV.
And while there's no shortage of stuff to discuss about the Caddy's exterior, its cabin is where the big changes happen. Aside from the column-mounted shifter, the cabin receives a heavy going-over, receiving Cadillac's new CUE infotainment system and a significant upgrade to the materials. Comparing it to furniture, Eric Clough, Cadillac's director of design for interiors, said, "An exceptional level of craftsmanship has gone into the redesign of the 2015 Cadillac Escalade, and it all centers on the premium materials and extensive use of cut-and-sew live stitching."
Under hood sits a 420-horsepower, 460-pound-foot, 6.2-liter V8. Fitted with direct injection and active fuel management, fuel economy for the big Escalade should get a much-needed boost beyond the current model's 14-city and 18-highway miles per gallon, although official numbers haven't been published quite yet. A six-speed automatic is the sole gearbox choice. Cadillac has also fitted the new Escalade with GM's magnetic ride control system, which should deliver a more refined ride than its predecessor.

Cadillac teases camo'd ELR ahead of Detroit debut

Tue, 08 Jan 2013

With the 2014 Cadillac ELR being introduced next week at the Detroit Auto Show, General Motors has revealed another picture of its luxury range extended electric vehicle. Last month, we saw a dark, teaser photo showing some of the body detail for the electric coupe, but this recent photo shows the Cadillac in full camouflage testing in California back in September.
If this car looks familiar, it's because our spy shooters got a jump on GM by catching the car in action and providing pictures from all angles. There are still no official details for the ELR yet aside from the fact that it will share the Voltec system with the Chevrolet Volt, but we'll finally see the car unveiled in Detroit a week from today.
