The official color for this car with WA8525 is Yellow Beige. According to records, this paint was used on Cadillacs from 1985 through 1987. I have to agree with the seller that this color makes this car. I'm not normally a fan of the 1986 transitional model Fleetwood Broughams but this car is neck snappingly beautiful. Hope it went to a good home with someone who will treasure it.
My grandfather had this year Fleetwood Brougham in the exact same color back when they were new. I don’t recall, but his may have been a d’Elegance. I later owned a 1986 Fleetwood Brougham d’Elegance myself, but in the light driftwood metallic color, if I recall the name correctly. It was a solid and reliable car. The 307 has to be tuned right and then it runs with sufficient power. The 307 gets a bad rap for being slow as many old ones need some TLC, and though not a race car like you said, they are pleasant for normal driving if running right. Unfortunately rust eventually got it, but I replaced it with a 1989 version.
I had one just like it which I sold about 5 years ago with 99,000 miles on it - an ‘86 Fleetwood Brougham! At 59 years old, it was one of the best cars I’ve ever owned, and I’ve owned many. Mine was the same pristine condition as this beauty, but not the same color. Mine was a light-medium-blue metallic with the same color vinyl roof, with a dark-blue velvet fabric upholstery, thick luxurious blue carpeting…the interior was like new throughout. The engine ran smooth and strong and the ride was all Cadillac: like a ride on a cloud! Whoever gets (or got) this car will be a very happy and satisfied driver. BEAUTIFUL!
@@southerncadman7066 I had forgot to mention in my comment that another difference between this yellow beauty of yours and the medium blue one I had was that mine had the 307 Olds engine. Either way, the ‘86 Fleetwood Brougham by Cadillac was/is a luxury-liner cruise ship built for the road! Here’s a cool old infomercial on the car that I found last night and enjoyed… th-cam.com/video/_sY99J56W9o/w-d-xo.html
@@southerncadman7066 Got it. Thanks for straightening me out on that. The color is the only difference between our ‘86 Broughams -and yours having 34,000 less miles on it than mine did when I sold it. And mine was low miles for its age at 99,000. Lucky is the buyer of this butter-yellow-cream-dream of yours Mark. That is some car!
My dad had a 87 white whith blue bought it in 95 for 4500 dollers it had 42 k drove it entail 130k whith only putting brakes and tires and oil changes and one alternater air was good for hole it was one of my faverite caddy
Gorgeous yet another example of an original car that was fanatically stored & maintained. My issue is the selling Dealership's badge affixed to the trunk. Why'd the owner they allow that -- so many times on these older immaculate Cadillacs? If I bought that new, it wouldn't have been there, especially something metal riveted into the sheet metal 😮
Thanks foe the comment. To ease your mind, the dealership badge is on with tape like the emblems, so can easily be removed. My opinion is that at this age, it is part of the car’s history.
Another great post on a great car. Still miss my 89 BROUGHAM DEELEGANCE IN silver with plush velvet tufted interior. Too late for me, but someone grabs this beauty and cares for it as the grand monument to traditional OTT Cadillac elegance, when Cadillac was The Standard of the WORLD for Luxury vehicles! 🏆

They are really getting hard to find. People are contacting me and buying the ones I have before they are even ready and before I can make videos these days.

Thanks... Actually, 1986 was the first year Cadillac used the 307, so the yellow car has that engine.

Gorgeous. I agree with you because I always liked the yellow on the caddy’s. Especially the 76-78 Seville.

I'm not big on the color yellow but that is a very pretty Fleetwood
Gorgeous 😍😍😍
Beautiful car Marc!
Thanks, Al. My offer is still on the table to trade yours for my Buick Park Ave. 😂
Sweet car!
Where did you get the top done? It looks great 👍
The vinyl top was structurally in good condition, just faded, so I dyed it.
So nice my guy
Very nice
Albemarle Nc. I'd know it anywhere. Beautiful car.
What gave it away?
@@southerncadman7066 Oh, just the fact that I live just up the road past 24/27. lol. GREAT cars though I must say.
No automatic trunk lid pull down? 307 or 305?
Good eye. This one doesn’t have that option.
And it is the Olds 307.
She’s a beaut
Is the car available for sale?
Sold it not long after posting. Thanks
What’s your asking price??
$10.900
@@southerncadman7066 does the A/C and heat works as well
Just listening is mmmmmm
Do you still have this car
Long gone, sorry.
Any nice cars you selling soon?
They are really getting hard to find. People are contacting me and buying the ones I have before they are even ready and before I can make videos these days.
@@marcwoodward850 ever consider venturing into the land of Buick as well?
I would if I come across some good cars. Believe it or not, nice old Buick’s are harder to find than Cadillacs. 🤷🏻♂️
How much
$10,900
That’s a really great car and fair price. We had a 1980 diesel in this butter yellow. Such a beauty
