Probably one of the best Cadillacs ever built. When I was a lad, my father and I would hop in the ‘66 and go up into the mountains of Montana. I will never forget the look on people’s faces when my dad pulled our Cadillac up next to their jeeps and International Harvesters 😂. All he did was make sure we didn’t get high centered on the rocks. He was an amazing driver in an amazing car 😉… back before “4 wheeling” was a thing 😁

GM design was at the top of its game in '65 and '66 - for both interiors and exteriors. Just stunning.

Just looking at this Fleetwood takes me back to grandma's garage where she had the very same model and color interior, but the exterior was light blue... I used to sit and imagine I could drive it.... I wish I had that car today

My favorite Cadillac in my lifetime. I prefer the 1965 better, but I was born in ‘66. My father owned a livery service, so we had a 1966 hearse & limo. When I was a kid, I liked to play in the passenger side footwell because the dash was curved on the passenger side. The things you remember as a kid.

An uncle of mine had a 1965 Sixty Special in dark blue. So much like the featured car. He traded it on a 1969 Fleetwood. Just not the same!

That is one of the most beautiful cars ever produced.

Such presence….

[@chuckpeterson3262]

Now that is a beautiful interior.

I owned a 66 sedan de Ville four door hardtop. It had a beautifully built expensive looking interior. Also had factory bucket seats with a narrow console. I sold it to a friend at work and he went to replace the burned out tail lamp and yes you are right. He had to remove the bumper. Lol

Hi Adam. The fold down trays also came in the 1967 Fleetwood Brougham. In 68 they were replaced with 'Map Pockets'

My Dad had a '66 Sedan deVille (not a Fleetwood Special), but it was very luxurious and the ride was second to none. In my Dad's words, "that 429 4bbl didn't go past a gas station" though!

1966 was the first year for GM FM Stereo radio too. Nice car.

Adam, your knowledge of these Cadillacs is most impressive. I can remember my father had a customer who had a 1966 Cadillac Fleetwood similar to your feature car except his was in Charcoal Gray. He and his wife used to buy new Cadillacs every couple of years. They were the Pratt family of Pratt & Whitney Aircraft engine fame. My Uncle Marc was also a big Cadillac guy with his last one being a beautiful maroon red 1996 Brougham D'Elegance which I got to ride in when he and my Aunt visited in the 1990's. The doors sounded like a vault door closing and what a smooth ride !

My family had this car. It was beautiful

Learned to drive in a 64 coupe d ville. Then we also had a black 66 coupe d ville and later a 65 convertible.

My dad bought a used one in 1970... Smelled of cigars. Grey w/black vinyl top, black luxurious cloth interior. Most lux car I've ever been in. We did a summer vacation in 71 - Carolina, Jersey Boardwalk, NYC, Niagra Falls, Canada, then the ferry across the Great Lakes back to Minnesota... What a cruiser ! 😊
