The Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham was a short-lived model from 1977 to 1986, as Cadillac's pinnacle full-size luxury car. Available as a sedan or coupe, we've got a fine example of a 1981 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham Sedan in our inventory right now, with just 6,300 miles, as reported by the current owner. This Bill Mitchell-designed land yacht is a perfect reminder of how opulent American luxury cars could become. Why not buy this well-preserved classic and relive those days?
Brown is a very Seventies color, which is where this 1981 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham Sedan hails from. That's why it looks right in its Golden Brown paint job, a feat that many modern cars would struggle to pull off. Quad headlamps, wire-effect wheels, a vinyl-wrapped roof, the Cadillac hood-mounted logo, and long overhangs all embody the stereotypical American land yacht. This car comes in at 221 inches in length, with a 121.4-inch wheelbase, so you can imagine how much overhang there is. Inside, you've got a tan interior with plenty of wood trim on the dash and door cards. There's plush leather buttoned seating for five adults, and we are told that the front seats are power adjustable. The door locks and windows are power operated as well; there's said to be air conditioning and even cruise control for the ultimate in hassle-free driving at the time. The doors themselves are hefty affairs with plenty of padding for the armrests and spacious ashtrays to accommodate the copious amounts of cigar ash generated by the well-heeled from the Seventies and Eighties. They've also got reading lamps, as this was the pre-smartphone era when passengers talked to each other or simply read a book to pass the time. They could also fire up the Cadillac Symphonic Sound System, which included a radio and an auto-reverse tape player.
This Land Yacht of a 1981 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham Sedan has a 6.0-liter L62 V8 driving the rear wheels via an automatic transmission.
The term "cruising" is enjoyed and experienced in multiple ways; one could take a fast car and cruise into the weekend on twisty roads, you could also have a luxury motor that's built for purpose, but for those who know would always say cruising is done best behind the wheel of a old American land yacht. Present today is this 1975 Cadillac Fleetwood 60 Special Brougham – perhaps the ultimate cruiser and has a reported 63,000 original miles on the clock. What's better? The current owner reports the car's owner's manual and a car cover is included in the sale.
Cadillac is considered one of the first automotive brands in the world. Founded in 1902 by the founder of Motor City – Detroit, Antoine de la Mothe, Cadillac, whose coat of arms is used as the brand's crest. From its inception, Cadillac's main focus has been on luxury builds, and this continued when General Motors took over the brand in 1909. One of Cadillac's memorable models is the Cadillac Fleetwood, which has its roots all the way back to 1916; while the Fleetwood is currently discontinued, it is still a much sought-after vehicle. The Fleetwood's status as a premier luxury vehicle made it aptly suitable for a myriad of uses. Take this 1988 Cadillac Fleetwood that has undergone a custom funeral car conversion custom built by The S & S Coach Company to give loved ones a last ride in luxury. The conversion has been done with excellent workmanship and is host to the original engine with 75,000 miles on the odometer.
While modern consumer trends dictate that manufacturers offer hundreds of SUV options to their customers, many enthusiasts long for the precursor to practical motoring — the humble station wagon. The wagon body shape is one that has been quietly phased out from modern-day showroom lineups. But, with wagons becoming a rarer sight on U.S. roads, the body shape is becoming more desirable to collectors and connoisseurs alike. Listed here is the ultimate in old-school Americana: a 1973 Cadillac Fleetwood Station Wagon. With just 83,000 miles on the clock and some stunning features for a car from the ’70s, this station wagon is arguably just as desirable, if not more so, than its sedan counterpart.
This fully restored 1985 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz is a prime example of luxury and elegance from the pinnacle of 1980s American automotive design. With only 53,000 original miles, this stunning coupe offers both pristine condition and authenticity. Powered by Cadillac’s refined 4.1L V8 engine and finished in an eye-catching red exterior over an equally luxurious red interior, it effortlessly blends vintage charm with modern touches such as Bluetooth radio connectivity.
The Cadillac Eldorado was the flagship offering of Cadillac, America’s most famous luxury automaker to this day. Made over twelve generations, the Eldorado’s production run started in 1953 and finally bid adieu to the world in 2002. Envisioned to be a two-door personal luxury car, the Eldorado is widely popularized as the vehicle that resulted in the coining of the term “Land Yacht”. Just cast your eyes upon this 31,898-mile, ninth generation 1976 Cadillac Eldorado Convertible and you’ll see why. Stretching at over 224 inches long and taking up almost 80 inches of road width, it’s truly an imposing, hulking beast. Its engine is no less impressive, because Cadillac’s answer to the stranglehold of the Malaise Era was to simply upsize the cubic inch capacity to commercial vehicle level numbers. Now, you can have your very own Land Yacht, as this reportedly all-original car is up for sale in Topanga, California.
Late 50s Chevys and mid 60s Cadillacs have always been popular candidates for restomod projects. However, not all of them are tastefully done like this fully restored 1965 Cadillac de Ville convertible restomod. 1965 was the first model year for the 3rd generation De Ville. It retained the same wheelbase as its predecessor, but the frame was a new perimeter frame (rather than the old X frame). The horizontal headlamp arrangement that had been standard since the late 50s was dropped in favor of a vertical arrangement, which also resulted in a wider grille. Gone were the softer lines of the old car, replaced by a sharper, more boxy design. The tailfins that had started shrinking since 1960 were now lower and slanted slightly downwards rather than slightly upwards. The new straight lines in its design make this car just as good looking with the top down as it does with the top up.
The perfect blend of a unique ownership experience and turning heads as you drive by sums up a muscle car ownership experience. Present today is one of the muscle car greats and takes shape with this 1967 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu. With a reported 59,285 miles on the clock, this muscular machine is a great way to clock in those memorable drives and up your driveway game.
Oldsmobile introduced the Toronado in 1965 as their personal luxury car contender. What made the Toronado most distinctive was not its styling or land yacht proportions, but the fact that it was front-wheel drive! Yes, this was probably one of a handful of V8 front-wheel drive cars around at the time. What a curious decision by General Motors, and you can discover their curio right here with this 20,197-mile 1985 Oldsmobile Toronado Brougham that we’ve got for sale. Currently relaxing in Grand Prairie, Texas, this all-original restored car awaits a new owner, which might very well be you, dear reader!
Widely popularized for its role in Smokey and the Bandit, the second-generation Pontiac Firebird is well regarded as a solid ’70s American classic. Never mind that the Malaise Era was in full swing, squeezing those V8s into abysmally low power outputs, there are plenty of avenues today to bring these cars back up to respectable power figures. Therefore, if you’re the kind who likes classic Firebirds, this 1979 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am is a fantastic find. It’s got a large V8 under the hood and comes bearing just 28,691 miles to its name. So don’t dilly-dally; pick up this Lubbock, Texas-based muscle car before someone else does.
