1970 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham. My favorite? Well, depends on the day…

I love 1970 Cadillacs. It goes way back. In first grade, my friend Luke Carlson’s mom had a 1970 Fleetwood Brougham. A coppery gold metallic, with white leather, white vinyl roof and black dash and carpet. By 1988 it was a little rough, but it still had…presence. Something you don’t really have with any modern…

This Week’s Klockau Lust Object: 1969 Cadillac Coupe de Ville

It’s common knowledge I love Cadillacs and Lincolns…well, at least until they started killing sedans left and right, but never mind that. Let’s ignore the current state of American luxury and go back to when a Cadillac was a Cadillac. Big, chromey, V8 powered, with bench seats and torque torque torque! Like this ’69 Coupe…

1959 Cadillac Fleetwood Sixty Special: Peak Fins, Peak Cadillac

I’ve always loved Cadillacs. It goes way back to my childhood, when one of my favorite toys was a Pocket Cars ’75 Fleetwood Brougham in metallic blue.

1978 Cadillac Sedan de Ville d’Elegance: Broughamtastic In Brown

I’ve always loved the 1977-79 Cadillacs. They were prominent during my formative years watching Magnum, P.I. and Knight Rider. Of course the bad guys were usually driving them. Sure I liked the red Ferrari and black Trans Am just fine but I liked the Cadillacs more.

UPDATE: You Could Have Seen The Ark in Person at World of Wheels…

UPDATE: Well, the event has been cancelled to to all the germy germs and stuff. But what the heck I decided to let this run anyway. Laurie took some nice pictures! March 20th through the 22nd would have been when the World of Wheels car show in Boston would have been held, but is now…

1993 Cadillac Sixty Special: Née Fleetwood

What price Broughaminess? How about three grand, give or take. That’s the ask for this rather nice example of the 1989-1993 Cadillac Fleetwood/Sixty Special. Originally deemed Fleetwood, with a “Sixty Special” option that added excellent, 22-way power seats designed by none other than Giorgetto Giugiaro.

1976 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham d’Elegance: Be Still, My Heart!

Well, you know the drill. I love these 1971-1976 Cadillacs, particularly Fleetwood Broughams, Fleeetwood d’Elegances, and Fleetwood Talismans. Sure you do. I’ve written up no less than three of them, here, here and here. So I’ll dispense with the background information and history on these.

1961 Cadillac Sedan de Ville: The Color of Money

It’s hard to believe in 2019, but when the 1961 Cadillacs first appeared in autumn 1960, they were considered subdued. Well, consider the all-time wild and crazy 1959 Cadillac: The year GM took Cadillac and cranked it up to 11. Yep! Wild, crazy, luxurious, huge, all-American. And with fins you could see from space. Chrome,…

1980 Cadillac Seville by Best of Show Models: Do The Bustle

I’ve always been into Cadillacs, and that means I’ve always been into Cadillac toys and scale models. Recently my friend in Texas, Jayson Coombes, bought this brand-new release by BoS (short for Best of Show) after I told him about it, ha ha. He was nice enough to take some pictures of it and text…
