Ah, ha, hoo! Calypso Green Fleetwood Brougham. You only live once. I will probably never have an unrestored original car in as good condition ever again. Yes, I am going to take this 17,000-mile baby on a 5000 mile round trip this fall (2024). I am going to enjoy it while I can. I will take my tools and a bucket/carwash stuff, to keep it clean along the way. Too bad I am single, or I would have a videographer to ride along with me. I typically cover about 1000 miles a day on these long distance trips.

The car featured in the video is a 1996 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham in Calypso Green Metallic, last of the RWD, full frame, V8 full sized luxury Cadillacs, a D-body, 10" larger than its B-Body cousins, the Buick Roadmaster and Chevrolet Caprice and Impala SS. Could be yours for $32,000.

That Fleetwood Brougham is a stunning example of these cars, holy crap that is beautiful! It is funny how different one of these feel compared to the Chevy Caprice, Buick Roadmaster or the Olds Custom Cruiser. The LT1 motor really lived these cars up compared to the TBI motors they had before, it is sad that they quit producing these in 96, they could have gone long into the 2000's.

The 5 1/2" longer wheelbase, the 10" longer body and the extra sound deadening goes a long way towards a more luxurious ride.

This is not a car, it's an automobile. I've ridden in this design and it's like riding on a cloud. America had lost something when they stopped making them like this. When the time comes, just make sure you give or sell it to someone with the means and intentions of preserving it. There's not many left.

That's one clean cadillac for being a 1996 with only 17000 miles on it that's basically a brand new car off the car lot my dad had a 1972 brougham it was a gold cadillac with a 472 and paid only 50 cents for it a 50 cent pice it was a old guy that owned it and told my dad if you gave me your 50 cent pice it's yours so my dad gave it to him my dad told me it had 80000 miles on it but my dad turned around and sold it for 100 dollars 💸 because it had broken down this was in the early 90s and my mom had owned a 1995 cadillac de vill it was pearl white with a golden trunk rack it was a beautiful cadillac because when the sun shining on it it would be different colors and my mom last cadillac she owned was a black two door they both had north star engines but my favorite car is the Lincoln Town car My dad had the Cartier that's the top of the Lincolns it has the all the options in them Lincolns and my dad a 1981 Lincoln town car mark 5 that had a 302 in it it was brown it was a very clean car that car was made the same year I was born and my grandparents had a 1999 white Lincoln town car with crome door trim I really enjoyed watching your video thank you from Missouri

One of my all time favorite Cadillacs. When I was growing up in the sixties, Caddy's were all my parents would drive. I currently own a, 2019 Cadillac CT6-V BLACKWING. it's a fantastic car. Back to your Fleetwood. I worked for GM for 38 years. During a tour at GM's Warren Tech Center back in the eighties I would walk the grounds and go over to the complex where GM would do reliability testing. I saw this car about a year before it was introduced. They had a prototype on a platform that was shaking the hell out of the car. I said to myself, now that's an automobile. I agree that this was the last true Full Frame Full Size Cadillac. It looks the way a Cadillac should and drives like a Cadillac should. I'm so glad that GM finally put the LT-1 V8 in their full size cars. What a huge difference that made in the cars performance. I had one for a company car. I just loved it. My wife and I would just take impromptu road trips because it was such an amazing car on the highway. I also won a few stop light drag races. It surprised a lot of so called sport car owners. The color of your car really shows off it's lines. Its a keeper for sure. Thanks for the video. Cheers!!!

I bet that CT6 rides a lot better than even a perfect Fleetwood would. It’s also just as “full size” as the fleetwood.
@gsczr1
@gsczr1 2 года назад
@@TheMW2informer, I don't think you can really compare the CT6 V with the Fleetwood. The CT6 V has an advantage in 20 + years of technology. The Magnetic Dampeners (developed by GM) give you your cake and eat it too. You can set the suspension from touring to track. The CT6 V also has 550 HP compared to 260 HP for the Fleetwood. Still the Fleetwood has a lot of character. To the old guard that grew up in the fifties and sixties the 96 Fleetwood was what a full size Cadillac should be. There is a You Tube channel called Throttle house. The hosts test drive performance cars. One of them races. They tested a CT6 V and the race car driver said that he couldn't help but compare the CT6 V to a BMW M4 instead of other full size European makes. He said the Caddy was the best handling full size car he had ever driven. People who grew up with full frame full size Cadillacs might find it difficult to relate to the newest Caddies. Besides (except for the CT4 & CT5) all Cadillacs are either Crossovers or SUV's now. How the world has changed. Cheers!!!

Nice car! I’m on my third 1995 Brougham. The first two were Calypso Green. I would definitely recommend tinting the windows as these interiors are easily sun damaged. I’m sure you’ve heard this a million times, but when you’re ready to sell, let me know.
@MostlyBuicks
@MostlyBuicks 2 года назад
Yes, I will tint the windows. I have had 1 1994, 1 1995 and this is my third 1996. My 1995 had the V4P option and even being a Brougham, it had the vinyl top delete option. If I had my way, no car would have a vinyl top. In my opinion they just add nothing to the lines and looks of a car. BTW one of my previous 1996s had the V4P option as well. The real plus on those is the more heavy duty transmission and higher cooling capacity. I can live without the 3:42 rear end ratio though. The 2:93 ratio gives enough "grunt". Heck, even my 1994 Roadmaster Limited with a 2:56 rear has plenty of grunt.

Had a 95 non brougham with factory sunroof, no carriage top. Honest to God the best vehicle I've ever owned (I've personally owned 40 cars in my life, including a v12 Beemer, classics, newer lux imports), it just truly took the cake. Smooth ride, straight line acceleration, easy to work on (mostly), stone reliable (mostly) and in my opinion, great gas mileage for the size and performance (16-17 city, 25 highway). Anyone reading this that has the opportunity to acquire one, don't hesitate, just do it. Wish I never sold mine. Huge regret.
@goldendawn7
@goldendawn7 2 года назад
Edit; the biggest difference between this drive train and the impala ss was the impala had a hotter rear end, which was offered as an option on the fleetwood, dubbed the towing package (back when they offered tow packages on sedans lol). You find one with this option, jump on it.

LOL (It's called a Fleetwood) Yes, the V4P option is amazing. It puts the Fleetwood in competition with the Impala SS with added luxury. I have both a 95 and a 96 with the V4P. Both were Broughams, one had the vinyl roof delete. I wonder why in the heck I sold that one. I do not like the vinyl roof and I prefer the Brougham over the base model. The bald Broughams are rather rare.

Great 96 Fleetwood. Yes, it was the end of the line for Roadmaster, Caprice and Fleetwood, V8 rear drive full frame. Too bad, heck we even went thru another sad time in auto industry, the demise of V6 sedans! Honda killed off V6 Accord in 2018, Buick axed theirs in 2019 with VW, Chevy and Caddy Feb 2020 and Toyota recently announced Avalon being cancelled, so no more V6 Camrys either. I scooped up a last Gen V6 Impala in 2019 before they started cutting back on options for last 1/2 yr. Neat feature of your 96 is last year for glass headlights (I had a 96 Buick Ultra with glass headlights).

GM introduced the 2 door hardtop in 1949 and discontinued that body style after 1972. They introduced the 4 door hard top in 1955 and discontinued that body style after 1976. Wouldn't it be fantastic if GM reintroduced these body styles the same time they brought back the convertible in 1982? Man I would LOVE a 1994 Buick Roadmaster Limited two door pillarless coupe without the door frames (two door hardtop). Yes, it is a lowdown dirty shame that sedans and coupes are falling by the wayside along with V8s and even V6s. They are opting for turbo-charged 4 cylinders. Then comes the electric cars that burn fuel oil, coal or natural gas remotely. Even though I have owned otherwise, I prefer V8 RWD American cars. And my first preference for body style is 2 door hardtop, followed by 4 door hardtop, then two door coupe, and lastly 4 door sedan. (Convertibles are simply for pleasure drives).

Absolutely. Corvette has 4-bolt mains, aluminum heads, hotter cam, stronger valve sprints. 300 hp at 5000 RPM, 340 lbs-ft torque at 4000 RPM. Fleetwood, Roadmaster, Caprice has iron heads milder cam. 260 hp at 5000 RPM torque 335 lbs-ft at 2400 RPM and 330 lbs-ft at 3200 RPM--a nice flat torque curve to move that mass.

Nice Caddy! I love my CTS4 with the luxury package. Yeah, it's a later one so it's downsized....but it's still a Caddy with all leather interior and every bell and whistle you could get. Many years ago a good friend of mine had a 75 Caddy with the 472 V8. Talk about a boat! You could park a modern day car in it's trunk! Back then gas was barely over a buck a gallon so it wasn't bad. Today that car would bankrupt you. It got about 8-10 mpg in town on a good day.

I do not understand the horror stories about big cars in the 60s and 70s getting 10mpg. I have a video of a 1976 Sedan DeVille that got 12mpg around town and 16mpg on the freeway at 80mph. I have another video of a 1970 Electra that gets`14 town and 17 mpg on the highway. I have owned 83 cars in my life and I calculate every tankful. My late father had even more cars than I and he calculated every tankful. No guessing. We each have had plenty of land yachts. His 1970 Electra Limited got 18-19 mpg on the highway.

93 through 96 rear wheel drive full size Cadillacs were indeed the last of TRADITIONAL Cadillac class. Had a 93 Brougham. Nice car, BUT as second owner was disappointed. CD didn't work, driver seat back peeled, and rear wheel wells rusted through.☹️. Currently have beautiful low mileage 2007 Lincoln Town Car Signature Limited ♥. Will keep it as long as I can still drive. 🏆. Previously had 89 Brougham deElegance with plush velvet interior, SO superior to my 93. Never should have let it go. 😢.

The color is called DGGM - right? Dark Green Gray Metallic. My god, it fits that car just SO good 😍 What a Cadillac. Love it! I'am driving a 1992 Caprice Wagon, which came originally in DGGM but was someday repainted... On a day with enough money and all... i definitely will getting it re-paint to it's orig. color. 🙌

Yeah the good old days before our politicians somehow started listening to Klaus Schwab and his minions.Except for the vinyl roof and the ridiculous chrome exhaust tips (and it sounds louder than it should)it’s a well preserved artifact that except for the opti spark distributor and the all too common GM transmission woes a big car that’d get 27 mpg and do the 1/4 mile in the 15s

Never had a problem with Opti-spark on any of the 11 LT1s I have owned. Not even when one of them had a water pump hemorrhage. I only had ONE Fleetwood Brougham with the vinyl top delete. (The Non-Broughams did not come stock with a vinyl top). I agree, I do not like vinyl tops on ANY car. But they were so popular once introduced back in the 1960s, hard to avoid. The Corvettes, Camaros and Firebirds did not have the vacuum venting the Roadmasters and Fleetwoods had on the Opti. NEVER replace an Opti with an aftermarket unit. Their chips do not last. One needs an Opti with the Mitsubishi chip that Delco and Delphi uses. But the cap and rotor need to be replaced at LEAST every 100K miles. The seal eventually shrinks and lets moisture in, to the point where the vacuum system cannot keep up. I actually collect old Optis just for this Mitsubishi module. That way I can swap it out if I ever HAVE to buy an Accel or MSD.

But I agree on the Klaus Schwab thing. He is destroying the world (Netherland, Sri Lanka) one country at a time. The people who will die of starvation around the world due to "green energy" will dwarf what Stalin, Hitler, Castro, Pol Pot and Mao have done put together. I hope to hell the USA wakes up to this nonsense before it is too late. The New Green Deal is really the Old Red Deal.

@@johnandersonjjr Just as Trump (one of our BEST all-time presidents) was a temporary stop-gap measure, so will be November. The trend is all but set for all of us. I am not sure if Caprices and Impalas have that vacuum venting or not. But my brother had a 1996 Caprice whose Opti went out twice. The second being an ACCEL.

Did you know that the ever popular Vogues are made in China? They are nice tires and feel good, but I do not care for the looks and are not worth the price. I have tried a few expensive reproduction tires and they feel like crap. These Hankooks are priced right and they feel good. I also like Toyo Extensa. I only wish Michelin still made white walls. I actually put 235R75-15 truck tires on my Roadmasters. They are raised white letters. But they just don't look right on a Cadillac. But when I put them on my Fleetwoods, they are the best tires I have ever used, but look out of place.

Wow!!! At least grab NOS rear shocks and the chrome side moldings if they still exist. I have a gray ‘85 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz and by the time I acquired it in 2010, all the NOS rear shocks (Delco), opera lamps and windshield moldings were long gone. You’re going to also have a hell of a time finding 235/70 R15 whitewalls. I never cared for the Vogue gold stripes but Diamondback Tire will customize some whitewalls for you for about $300 a pop. GOOD LUCK!!!

1995 was the last year for the 4.9 in the DeVille. 1996 DeVille had the 4.6 Northstar. The DeVille Concours featured the Northstar a few years earilier. I really like the 1996 Corvette. I have never owned a Corvette. I have owned several 1956 and 1957 Thunderbirds however.

Mechanically speaking, very little problems I have encountered. The clips that hold on the lower trim break and mostly the rear quarter trim can fly off if they do. I guess some people have trouble with the rear most exhaust manifold bolts breaking. The knee bolster panel under the steering wheel tabs often break if you remove the panel. The fender apron extensions just behind the front bumper is made of very brittle plastic and are often cracked or missing completely. For some reason the Roadmasters have a better type of plastic there. The rub strips are impossible to find replacements for. Fortunately the 4 fender chrome spears that crinkle have aftermarket aluminum and stainless replacements to the tune of $400-$600 a set.
