Vehicle Detail
*** Item relisted due to non-paying bidder *** *** You need to check with your state's DMV and make sure you can obtain a title for this vehicle PRIOR to making an offer. Alabama law does not require titles for vehicles 35+ years old therefore it does not have a title and will only come with a bill of sale. *** *** THERE IS A SLIDESHOW WITH MORE DETAILED PICS AT THE BOTTOM OF THIS AUCTION *** 1969 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham Special 60. 4dr Sedan. Sable black with blue cloth interior. Black vinyl top. 472 V8 Automatic. A/C. Power steering, power brakes, power windows, power door locks, power seats, cruise control, even power trunk release. This car is a mixed bag. Mechanically, this car runs just fine. Starts up on the first key turn. Gas tank was cleaned out, Holley carb was rebuilt, new fuel filter, new brake booster, new rear brake shoes, and new radiator hose which fixed an antifreeze leak. So it runs and stops just fine. It even still handles nice and smooth just like a vintage Cadillac should. Most of the issues are cosmetic and will need a body man to fix. The A/C will need some work to get running. The passenger side window does not work. And there may be various other little things that need addressing. Not really sure. The major issue is the roof. The vinyl top needs to be removed and the roof needs to be sanded down. Some of the roof will have to be welded or patched. Mainly in the top of the rear on the passenger side. There are also some rust holes above the windshield and in the rear under the vinyl top trim which leak into the trunk that will also have to be spot welded up. Once this is done, a new top can be put on and you are good to go. The body is pretty straight except for a slight ding on the drivers side fin and some scrapes in the bottom of the doors. I believe the scrapes are from where the previous owner might have drove it up on his car hauler which was too narrow for the car. I think all of these can be repaired without replacing the doors. The drivers door is the worst and I think you can remove the door panel with the window up and hammer it out and it will be fine. The trunk weatherstrip channels on this car do not have any rust. The weatherstripping will have to be replaced though. I am including new trunk weatherstripping with the car. The interior obviously will need new seat covers, carpet, and a headliner once the roof is repaired. The door panels are pretty rough as well. You can find these parts with a simple search online and on Ebay. The steering wheel will either need a new pad or need to be replaced. You can do a search on Ebay for "Grant Cadillac Wood Wheel". They make a pretty cool wooden one for it with a Cadillac center cap. I inspected the floors while this car was up on the rack and there were no holes. The trunk pan is also solid. The drop-offs were even holding water from the holes mentioned above until I dried them out so there are no holes in the rear quarters either. Both of the bumpers are almost mint. All the glass is good except for the front windshield. It has bubbled around the edges and has some wiper scrapes. I have included pics of some late 60s Cadillacs to give some build ideas for this car. It would be a pretty sweet car with some new paint or maybe done in satin, lowered, with some 20s or Coker white-walls. It just depends what you want to do and how far you want to go with it. *** The car will come with a bill of sale ONLY. Alabama does not title cars 35+ years old.*** DECODING: VIN: P9179525 = Fleetwood Brougham Sedan 1969 Prod # starting at 100001 BODY TAG: ST 69 68169 = 69 4dr Brougham TR 026S = Blue cloth interior BDY FWD 7913 = Fleetwood Plant Body #7913 PNT 10 K = Sable Black, Black Vinyl Roof 01C = 3rd Week Jan
