1978 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham D'Elegance Start and Walkaround

CLICK MORE INFO - The car is not very clean at the moment, I will make another video when I have it washed and waxed! This is actually a 1978, although it has the hubcaps from a '79 on it, along with the extra chrome pieces on the rear quarter panels. It is very clean as far as rust goes, although the engine compartment could use a detailing. It has a 425 and TH-400 with a 4-barrel carburetor. I also demonstrate the 8-track player, horn and siren alarm.

what was the little keyhole on the side for?

[prs0889]

That is where you put the special key in to arm the alarm system.

nice caddilac better than the northstars that are always blowing headgaskets i seen so many late model caddilacs collecting dust cause of the northstar engine i wouldnt own one unless it was given to me lol btw i thought these cars came with a 502?might just have been an added option not sure

The 500 (8.2 Liter) was standard on Cadillacs for 1975-1976. 1977 to 1979 the 425 (7.0 Liter) was standard. The only other options for 1977-1979 were a fuel injected 425 or the rarer 350 diesel.

God, I love the Detroit craftsmanship on these old caddies, It's really a miracle all the electronics are prestine... Good the owner didn't go for a sunroof, that would be bound to start leaking... Also, can someone explain the point of a PA on a car!?!?

[loufalce]

Just like the one my father had. This was the last car you looked at before you bought a limousine. First class cruiser, with the emphasis on class.

these were the days when Cadillac was the luxury leader. then they fell off the map in the 80's and 90's. It wasn't until the 2000's to now where Cadillac started really getting back in the luxury leader game again.
