1986 Fleetwood Brougham. Car is really straight, the paint is pretty good but has had paint work on portions of the car at different times, so there are some noticeable color matching issues. This car has had ALL of the bumper fillers replaced on it within the last year, so you won't have to worry about that issue for another 20+ years, or pay hundreds of dollars to replace them because they all crack on these cars eventually. The top has some splits in the vinyl, but there is no bulging anywhere that would indicate rust issues underneath whatsoever. This car seems to have spent almost all of its life parked inside a garage, there are no signs of sun-fading on the interior and even the window sweeps are crack free. The interior is really nice. The carpet looks almost like new, the seats are in good shape and don't have any rips or cracks. The dash doesn't have a single crack anywhere. Both front arm rests have minor cracks, but the car will include a replacement arm rest for the passenger side. The headliner is pinned up into place. This car has the Delco/Bose stereo and it sounds surprisingly good. The climate control unit works great, the heat and defrost work good. The AC cycles, so it's probably low on refrigerant, and it uses R-12, so it would probably be wise to convert to 134-A instead of paying a fortune for R-12 to fix and fill it. Mechanically this car runs great and gets 23-24mpg on the highway. The engine doesn't smoke and runs smoothly and pulls cleanly. The transmission shifts and runs perfectly with no flaring shifts or problems. The front suspension and steering are really tight, all of the ball joints and steering components are free of slack. The shocks are noticeably worn, so it "floats" a little, but it tracks and drives really straight. The tires are around 50%, but are beginning to show some cracking from age. They are drivable, but showing their age. I have driven this car on a 400 mile round trip within the last year, so I wouldn't be worried to drive it anywhere. The odometer reads 4,xxx miles. My title says "Mileage Exempt" and the prior owner bought the car about 13 years ago, so I doubt there is any carfax information out there, but I haven't looked it up. If the odometer said this were a 60k mile car it would be easily believable. Overall this car is a really straight and original car that is reliable to drive. It would be a great car to restore because most of the expensive stuff is there and in good shape and it doesn't have rust issues. I am only selling it because I simply have too many projects right now. Thanks for looking!
