Car Body #94


As of Oct. 18, 2024, this is the information we have about this car:

[Jun.01.2008] Car #94 was purchased new by S.F. Briggs, of the Briggs & Stratton organization [he had purchased a 1957 Eldorado Brougham a few years earlier]. This car was on sale, in Pennsylvania, in October, 1998, for under$7,800; it was reported to be in poor condition. Recently [Feb. 2000], it was offered for sale on e-Bay. The vendor described it thus: ...We purchased the Brougham from the Walgreen ' Drug Store' Family who had it in storage for over 20 years. The odometer indicates 50,200 miles and is believed to be correct. When we purchased the car it was still on the air suspension. The air pump was operational, however there were several leaks underneath, so the bags were removed and replaced with springs. All original Air Ride components go with the car. The original tri-power runs good; however, the gas tank needs to be removed and cleaned. The only rust area is under the battery box which is mounted in the trunk. The car has had a repaint which is not very good. Dash pad is perfect. The windshield has a 2 inch crack in the lower right corner and some small bubbles in the lamination [Yann says: findinga new windshield for a '60 Brougham ain't gonna be easy!1]. The right front door glass has a crack in it as well. The chrome trim is in good condition but not show quality. The rear door windows work sporadically. The CORRECT wheel covers are very nice! Original carpet is bad, however the original white leather is pretty good aside from the front seat is starting to crack. The seams on the backrest are separating. With very minimal work and low capital expenditure, this car could be a very nice driver. According to Cadillac experts, of the 101 built, less than 35 exist today [wrong: this listshows 51 of them]. We will include free shipment within 200 miles of Milwaukee,WI. For further information you can contact Rich @ 262-878-9555 between 9 AM and 6PM. This car was originally delivered to PA; it was listed on my 1978 roster asbeing in good condition. Color and trim codes match. Late Extra [June, 2008]: The car turned up for sale on Ebay; currently it is located in Utah. The odometer now treads 50,253 miles, suggesting it has traveled no more than 53 miles since it was last offered for sale more than 8 years ago. Vendor says the headliner and carpet have been replaced and the seat sides[front?] have been redone in leather, as also the door panels. The original white leather trim has been dyed over; I guess it may have faded or become soiled.
