Man Wimberley your just too cool for school! I'm so jelly....this Fleetwood looks clean and hella nice with the aftermarket wheels!! You should dedicate your channel to Cadillacs and just call it a day!
Thank you! I’ve been working on it a lot lately. There are some places that make aluminum reproduction spears if your willing to pay the cost. I prefer to find parts for little to nothing at the junkyard. 😂
@@WorkingWithWimberley ya im on a forum that has the spears. I need the actual moulding for the bumpers, my chrome moulding is good. These cars are hard to come by in good shape. You've got a gem for sure.
I ended up painting the trim at the bottom of the windows. The black coating was flaking and peeling. I scraped it off and painted it with black truck bed coating.
Thanks you! I used a paint and primer in one. Rustoleum Satin Silver Lilac. www.walmart.com/ip/Silver-Lilac-Rust-Oleum-American-Accents-2X-Ultra-Cover-Satin-Spray-Paint-12-oz/915917000

How do you remove that trim off of the stainless steel piece? I have a new piece of stainless but that trim has holes in it and i have my original piece i want on the new stainless.Thanks 😊
The wheels are Velocity VW 730. The wheels are at least 15 years old. They don’t make them anymore. I always liked these and a set popped up on Facebook marketplace and I bought them. I didn’t even get them to put on the Fleetwood but I put them on and loved the look! Thanks bro!!! 😎

Do you plan on painting the trim around the windows?

@@WorkingWithWimberley awesome. I’m definitely going to restore mine the same way you did yours. Thanks so much for the tips.

The rubber strips on the chrome trim on the doors and quarters appears to be double sided taped on. The rubber trim on the bumpers snap in.

How much would this cost 🤔
@@karloshouston7735 The can of paint was $7. I probably spent another $10 on paper and tape.
What paint did you use..type/color
I went with a paint & primer combo. In the silver lilac color. www.walmart.com/ip/Silver-Lilac-Rust-Oleum-American-Accents-2X-Ultra-Cover-Satin-Spray-Paint-12-oz/915917000

th-cam.com/video/jAcFCpFuws4/w-d-xo.html
What size tire do you have on your rims?
I have size 265/35/22 on them.
Ok I have 275/40xr/20 106xl but I think I need slimmer tire because scrubs a lil when turning any suggestions on the size?
@@jamonicacampbell6150 Looks like guys with 20s are running 245/40/20. www.cadillacforums.com/threads/20-inch-wheel-question-93-96-fwb.84054/
some 22" Vogues woulda complimented the wheels in true Cadillac fashion
I agree. I’m just not ready to drop over $2,000 on them right now. I just did a video on the tires too. th-cam.com/video/jAcFCpFuws4/w-d-xo.html
a Saturday video?!?!?
