[Feb.01.2017] Car #278 hassurvived; I have it from Brougham enthusiast, Graham Peters, that it was imported toCanada some time back but appears to have gone back to one of the mid-Western US states(2004-05). Graham says: I can verify that the car in the background is #278 ( saw thetag myself). To the best of my knowledge,both of these cars [he mentions also #330, below] werefound in Georgiaaround2002and brought toCanada. This is the only car of the 1957-58production to have been painted Castile Maroon, a very dark burgundy or oxbloodhue. This was not a standard Brougham color but was included, nonetheless, on the palettefor the regular Cadillac models of 1957 [code #52].
