Beautiful car in an elegant color combo. These were basically short limo's. My father had a blue '66 Sedan DeVille. These cars ride so smoothly and powerful. This is when Cadillac's look regal.

The 1966 Fleetwood Brougham is my favorite car. Understated elegance. This one has the beige Dartmoor interior.

Loved this vintage. Very refined. Variable-ratio steering was very nimble, real wood. Just the best cruiser of the era IMO mainly because neither the Lincoln or the Imperial had the COMBINED refinements of the Sixty-Special Brougham. The interior was the quietest of the three for sure!

50 years ago, in 1973, the very first car I drove was a 1966 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham. It was silver with a black interior, NJ license plate number YLV 987. It was the car in which I learned to drive. It was the first car I ever owed and you never forget your first car. I purchased it from my dad when I got my first driver's license. I still have a couple of photos of it. I have extremely fond memories of it. I thank you for posting this. It makes my memories of the car that much more vivid.

Those seats were actually a cloth but you could still spill A&W chili dog and root beer all over them and it'd wipe right up before it soaked in. GM got that part right.

This is my favorite year Caddy. One question. If this was top of the line. Why only one mirror on drivers side door. ? Seems like they should of had 2...nice car though good luck
@robk96853 жыл бұрын
Should "have". Anyway, the right side mirrors weren't needed yet because there were only 2 lane roads at the time. The left side mirror was for Grams to blot her lipstick as there were no lighted visor vanity mirrors yet.

Back in the day almost everything was ordered separately on a spec sheet and many things we take for granted were optional. There were no “convenience group” or “safety group” packages, even on Cadillacs. A car like this would have been optioned out by a customer or a buyer at a dealership, and as humans with limited perspective they might have thought the right side mirror was a useless appendage that spoiled the lines of the car at an unnecessary cost of $35 or whatever. That’s why we find weirdly optioned cars from that era with power steering but no power brakes, or a tape deck but no glovebox door. It wasn’t until the Japanese took over the American car market that Detroit finally started offering fully equipped cars as standard.
