1966 CADILLAC FLEETWOOD BROUGHAM
TWO OWNERS
39,654 ACTUAL MILES

The car has a neat history.  

The original owner was a man named William F. Powell from Philadelphia who got the title on 8-22-66.  
One of the cool things is a book suggesting service visits in which he noted the mileage on visits for the first couple of years.  (I think it's in the glovebox).  
He put on VERY few miles.
 
He sold it on 12-24-88 to a car dealer (probably a trade in) Auto World in Gathersburg Maryland.  
It had 26, 277 miles on it, meaning he had driven just over 1,100 miles per year. 
Auto World transferred it to a dealer in Springfield, MD - Motor City Auto Sales on 4-30-89.  
It had 26,690 miles on it. 
 
The current owner bought it on 6-20-92 with 26,815 miles on it, making him the 2nd registered owner.  
Over the past 20 years, he brought it up to about 39,600 miles or about 600 miles per year. I have all of this documented.
 
It was an original paint car up until it was hit in the rear of the car 14 years ago by a neighbor.  The car was painted completely, and the roof was all re-done.  It does have some minor rust starting from water trickling down the vinyl roof behind the rear windows.  This will need to be dealt with eventually, but most people don't even notice it, but I wanted to disclose it.  It's also missing the lettering on the right side - F L E E T W O O D.  At some point water had leaked into the trunk damaging the trunk liner, but you can find reproduction trunk liners now. The red/organe cloring you see in the trunk is NOT RUST it's the red oxide primer coating under the paint, the trunk is rock solid.
 
The interior is nearly perfect, including the original floor mats.  
The wood has some staining.  
The front vent window gears were replaced, they weren't available for the rear vents.  
(It has 8 electric windows!)
 
I just had a new muffler put on it recently.  It has rear air shocks, I'd replace the back springs.
 
The car runs great, it's tight, and fun to drive.  It has almost all options, except cruise, rear window defogger and heated seats.  I have a cruise control someone could add.  I also have the rear window defogger blower, etc that someone could add.  I also will include two extra wheel covers, a headlight bezel, and a couple of other small parts.  I think the cruise control and defogger cost me about $500 combined when I bought them. 
 
So, that's the history.  It was the top of the line Cadillac with the exception of the Limousines, and is similar in some ways to the Eldorado convertible for 1966.

Cadillac LTS flagship to bow at NY Auto Show

Wed, 06 Aug 2014

There is widespread agreement across the industry that Cadillac needs a proper, rear-drive flagship sedan that completes legitimately with the Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Audi A8 and BMW 7 Series.
Fortunately, the same view is held within the company, and just such a car - possibly dubbed LTS - is under development. According to a high-level source at Cadillac, the new four-door, which is said to incorporate design cues from the marque's celebrated Elmiraj coupe concept, will debut at the New York Auto Show next April.
If the car needs a cheerleader, surely incoming president Johan de Nysschen is just such a person. De Nysschen doesn't arrive at Cadillac until late in the month, but certainly he will want a proper flagship to do battle with his old foes at Mercedes-Benz and BMW and old friends at Audi and Infiniti.

Cadillac partners with Saks Fifth Avenue for limited-edition ELR

Fri, 08 Nov 2013

There's no softening the blow with this one - this is the limited edition 2014 Cadillac ELR Saks Fifth Avenue Edition, and it costs $89,500, including $995 for destination. The special model, limited to just 100 units, is part of a holiday season collaboration between Cadillac and luxury retailer Saks Fifth Avenue. In addition to the ELR, there will also be a special "Frozen Escalade" window display at the Saks Fifth Avenue flagship store near Rockefeller Center in New York City, which will feature the 2015 Escalade with functioning LED running lamps that, as the automaker says, "appear embedded and breaking through a wall of ice."
But back to that ELR. This Saks edition plug-in hybrid coupe commands a surcharge of $14,500 over the $75,000 base model that over 85-percent of Autoblog readers polled already feel is overpriced. For that extra coin, you get an ELR wearing exclusive (to this car) White Diamond paint matched with either a jet black or light cashmere interior. Buyers will also receive an upgraded 240-volt charging station complete with professional installation, and the cars come with Cadillac's ELR Concierge service - representatives "trained in white-glove customer care" that serve as an additional point of contact beyond the dealership when it comes to topics like like battery care, charging, service scheduling and news updates.
Folks who order the Saks Fifth Avenue ELR are expected to receive their cars in March of next year. Price aside, we're sure it'll look great parked alongside the Neiman Marcus Aston Martin Vanquish Volante in owners' garages. Scroll down for Cadillac's official press blast.

GM recalls nearly 340,000 large SUVs to fix daytime running lights

Thu, Nov 10 2022

General Motors has initiated a recall campaign for more than 338,000 of its large SUVs to address a potential defect in the onboard computer software that controls the daytime running lights. In some cases, the DRLs may remain on even when the headlights are enabled, which creates additional glare for oncoming drivers at night and fails to comply with federal regulations for headlight performance.  "GM determined that the body control module (BCM) software in these vehicles, under a combination of certain pre-conditions, may fail to deactivate the DRLs when the headlamps are on," GM's recall report said. "A regulatory assessment was conducted to evaluate whether the condition presented a potential noncompliance with the DRL activation requirements in S7.10.5, Table I-a. of FMVSS 108. On October 27, 2022, GM’s Safety Field Action Decision Authority (SFADA) decided to conduct a recall for potential noncompliance with this standard." GM says the recall covers the 2021 model year GMC Yukon and Yukon XL, 2021 Chevrolet Tahoe and Suburban, and 2021 Cadillac Escalade and Escalade ESV. The company says all models produced within that operating window include the improperly programmed body control module, meaning all vehicles within the recall population may exhibit the problem. The issue was discovered by a GM engineer during validation testing in August, prompting a deeper investigation and eventually leading to the recall itself.   The module's software can be updated by GM dealers, so it should be a quick fix for customers. Notifications will be mailed to owners in December.  Related video: Recalls Cadillac Chevrolet GMC Ownership Safety SUV Luxury
