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 all of its life. The interior is crushed mustard velour 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 dial clock in the dashboard, the original 8 track tape (radio works though) and the cruise control (which can be replaced/repaired). Original rubber (color correct) floor mats with the Cadillac crest come with the car. The black vinyl roof is all original and is superior! The exterior paint is the original factory Phoenix Gold Firemist (an extra charge option back then). The flanks of the car are good but the horizontal surfaces are faded and will need a repaint (main areas are the hood and trunk). 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 was changed over from the R12 to the R34 in June of 2007. Blower is strong, but the air conditioning does not 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. Tires are in excellant condition (high-end Michelin steel belted radials) and are the correct whitewall width (thin) and size at P235/75/R15s. Underneath is excellant with NO RUST. Does not burn oil. No smoke from exhaust. I have owned this car since November of 2006 and I love it, but must sell it for room. I have had it garage kept with a custom made dust cover over it. I have replaced the power steering pump and upgraded the exhaust with new mufflers and tailpipes (dual exhaust). The original owner of this car had a Cadillac dealership install a "Rolls Royce grill front" on it in 1973. This piece of equipment is unique. The front has three Cadillac crests on it! The Fleetwood standard hood stand-up Cadillac wreathed crest, the Cadillac crest on the Rolls Royce grill, and an additional chromed front licence plate shield with the crest on it. 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 hardback book about Cadillacs. What a great package of Cadillac nostalgia for the Cadillac enthusiest. The car will be sold with the brochures, hardback book, and the custom made dust cover. 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. Few are on the road today. This one is very driveable today and a head turner AS IS. __________________________________ Vehicle was valued at @ $8000.00 + one year ago. I have a buy it now price of $7800.00. I have clear title to this vehicle. Buyer is responsible for pick-up and transportion/shipping. There is a reserve to be met on this Ebay auction. Car is located in northwest Georgia - city of Chickamauga. Some of the pictures listed is when the car was in Florida several years ago.

Cadillac CT4 and CT5 high-performance V cars spied
Mon, Dec 16 2019This summer, Cadillac teased much more impressive V-series models than the lukewarm CT4-V and CT5-V. Now we get a better look at both super sedans, each one boasting more aggressive, but subtle visual upgrades. Normally we would talk about the visual changes to each car individually, but the changes are nearly identical between the cars. They both get deeper chin spoilers and lower side skirts. The lower grille opening now features slatted sections on either end. The headlights, main grille and hood all look unchanged from the regular V models. The same goes for the rear bumpers and tailpipes. The rear spoilers on both are much taller, though. The wheels on the CT4 look about the same as the CT4-V, but the CT5 wheels look a bit different with more detail. We also get a good look at the wheel-filling brakes. Cadillac hasn't said anything concrete about the specifications of the hotter CT4 and CT5 models, except that they'll definitely be faster than the revealed V models. One thing we do know, thanks to our spy photographer's video from earlier this year (shown above), the CT5 will get a V8. Our bet is on it being the Blackwing twin-turbo V8 that's available in the CT6-V and CT6 Platinum. It would probably have at least the same output at the CT6-V at 550 horsepower and 640 pound-feet of torque. Expect the 10-speed automatic transmission to carry over with it. This drivetrain would also open up the possibility of all-wheel drive. As for the fast CT4, it could potentially revive the ATS-V's twin-turbo V6 with 464 horsepower and 445 pound-feet of torque. It would probably also get a 10-speed automatic and maybe all-wheel drive as an option.

Cadillac finds a few more horsepower for ATS-V
Wed, Mar 25 2015We've rarely found cause to complain about a car getting more power, and guess what? That's not going to change here. After initially announcing that the new ATS-V would come to market with a Corvette-matching 455 horsepower, Cadillac has come back with an SAE-certified 464 horsepower. That, as Automobile points out, puts the high-performance ATS in spitting distance of the base Mercedes-Benz C63 AMG and its 469 hp. Anyone else feeling bad for owners of the 425-hp BMW M3? While the ATS-V is getting a bit more grunt, somehow, we doubt Cadillac will adjust its previously published performance figures. Expect 60 miles per hour to arrive in 3.9 seconds, with a top speed of 185 mph. As of this writing, a lucky Autoblog staffer is lapping the ATS-V around Circuit of the Americas in Austin as part of the sedan's big launch. So while we can't fill you in on its real-world performance just yet, expect a big update soon. Related Video:
