Description
1990 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham / 29k orig miles / 1 family owned / 5.7 / 100 pics / inspected
Up for bid is the 2nd out of 4 Cadillac Broughams I’m selling. I purchased it this past summer from the original owner’s son. His father ordered it new at Johnson Motors in Dubois, A. This is finished in a beautiful Cotillion White with contrasting blue pinstripe, nd dark blue interior, ith less than 29,000 original miles. It has many options, ncluding dual vanity mirrors, utomatic dimming rearview mirror, eated mirrors, ual reclining/power seats, ower pull down trunk, actory AM/FM Cassette Stereo, utomatic leveling rear shocks, -note trumpet horn, wilight sentinel, nd wire wheel discs. Everything works except the power antenna and the cassette player (but radio works fine). However, ncluded with the car is a GM replacement power antenna….it just needs installed. Everything else works, ven the opera lamps still shine bright. It has the desirable 5.7 fuel injected engine package, hich included heavy duty cooling and alternator, mong other things. This package was meant for towing, ut this one never had a hitch. These engines will run forever with proper care and maintenance. It was never driven in the winter….the underneath is proof. I have the original owner’s manuals along with both sets of “gold” keys along with a 3rd original set of standard GM keys too.
Exterior: No dents or dings to speak of. Paint is almost perfect, n my opinion. No rust under the doors. Chrome and stainless steel trim are very good and still shines brightly. Vinyl top is very good and mostly clean. I noticed a very small gap between the vinyl and the passenger side beltline molding, elow the Cadillac wreath. Not noticeable unless you look for it up close (see pics). Not sure how that happened…might have been a factory defect?? Also, couple minor nicks exist on the lower plastic moldings. No curb rash to speak of on the hub caps. The underbody is incredibly clean. It barely has any surface scale that one would normally find on a chassis of a newer vehicle. Never driven in the winter. No doubt this was garage-kept most of its life.
The only flaw, hich is minor in my opinion, s that it appears that the right rear quarter panel has been resprayed at one point. This section is smooth and has no evidence of sand marks, verspray or orange peel. Perhaps this was repaired by the dealer when new? The prior owner claimed it was never in an accident. My father used to work for a Cadillac dealer in the 1980's and said often times cars would come in from the factory with minor blemishes that required paint work, o who knows. There is absolutely no bondo and no rust anywhere in this repair or anywhere else.
Interior: The blue cloth is very comfortable. No stains, ips, r tears of any kind. Never smoked in – cigarette lighter never used. Headliner and sail panels do not sag anywhere. Dash board and door panels are not cracked. No fading of any sort. Carpets are clean and very soft. Even the mats are in great shape. Trunk is clean too. The interior is in excellent shape.
Mechanical: It passed the rigorous PA safety inspection and is good through June 2016. Brand new tires installed in August – all 4. A/C blows cold – still has the good old R-12 refrigerant. The garage floor is dry after sitting for several days at a time. Does not leak anywhere to my knowledge. I believe the hoses and belts are still original; but they appear to be in good shape. The oil and filter was just changed. Tranny fluid still looks good, oo. The car steers tight, racks straight, nd stops smooth.
Overall: With only 29,000 miles, his is almost like a brand new car. Very well kept. I think the next owner will be very pleased with the condition of the car. Get in and drive it anywhere, n my opinion. I’ve had it for only a few months, hich is typical for me. In fact, bought 4 Broughams this summer and hope to sell each one in the next few weeks. I call it a “revolving collection”. Will also have a 75 Electra for sale, oo. It’s like fishing….catch one and throw it back in the water. I only have 2 cars that I plan to keep indefinitely – a 72 Cutlass convertible that my parents bought in 1973 and a 71 Mercury Cyclone GT which is very similar to my first car. Please feel free to call me with any questions on this beautiful Cadillac. My # 814-934-4094. I am not a dealer or a mechanic, ust a car hobbyist.
This car is so nice, hat some people might say the car is “perfect” or “flawless”. The average person may describe it as such-- but for a car collector, here’s never anything 100% perfect unless it was restored. As such, his car was never restored and has 29,000 miles and has some trivial flaws. I have sold numerous cars on eBay and in all situations I had positive feedback. I attempt to describe each vehicle as accurately and honestly as possible and I do not think you will be disappointed. As with anything, f you desire to bid on the vehicle, would encourage you to see it physically and drive it for yourself before you bid. I would not be afraid to drive this car across the country. It runs and drives excellent and will make a very nice classic for you. If you get the winning bid and are not completely satisfied upon your physical inspection, ou can walk away from the vehicle, ess $100 of your deposit (to pay for the cost of having to relist on eBay).
