Description
On October 25th 1978 Kathryn Seaman of Athens, Ohio took delivery of this beautiful Laramie Beige 1979 Fleetwood Brougham d'Elegance from Hoyle Cadillac. When she took delivery it had 20 miles on it.
On our quest to find high quality, original, low miles classic cars we found this beautiful Cadillac. This is an outstanding example of one of the finest cars Cadillac ever produced. The 1977 through 1979 Cadillac's are considered by many to be the best cars they ever made. While still very individual, they were more efficient than their predecessor but maintained a 7 liter 425 Cadillac built V8 engine. They drive effortlessly and have more than abundant power. The drivetrain in these cars is so robust they could be driven as a daily driver and driven reliably even at 44 year old.
This Fleetwood Brougham is absolutely outstanding. The paint gleams, the chrome is beautiful with no pitting, the body is beautifully straight and the condition of the vinyl roof is as impressive as the rest of the car. It has the correct 1 and 5/ 8 white walls, and is impressive everywhere you look. Inside the door panels are in beautiful condition and the original leather it's still soft and looks just beautiful. There are no cracks in the door panels, dashboard, or steering wheel. The recently replaced headliner fits like the original and everything inside this car works as it should.
