Description
Power comes from a 365ci V8 paired with a four-speed automatic transmission, and features include a brushed-stainless-steel roof, rear coach doors, power windows, air conditioning, and an AM radio. The selling dealer acquired the car in January 2021 and has subsequently serviced the fuel system, replaced the battery, and checked the fluids. Penned under the supervision of General Motors styling chief Harley Earl, the Brougham incorporated the panoramic windshield, pillarless roofline, and rear coach doors of the Cadillac Orleans Motorama concept from 1953 with the brushed-stainless-steel roof of the brand’s El Camino coupe concept from the following year. Forged-aluminum 15? wheels are mounted with Kelly whitewall tires. The factory air suspension has been removed in favor of a coil- and leaf-spring setup, and braking is managed by four-wheel power-assisted drums. Beige leather trim is accompanied by replacement black cloth upholstery. Factory features include air conditioning and power-operated windows and seats as well as an Autronic Eye, which is retained on the left corner of the dash. A dual-tone steering wheel with chrome accents and a horn ring frames a sweeping 120-mph speedometer and a five-digit odometer that shows just under 74k miles. True mileage is unknown. Equipped with dual four-barrel carburetors underneath a gold-colored “batwing” air cleaner, the 365ci V8 was rated at 325 horsepower when new.
