Description:

1987 Cadillac Brougham

Back in the 1980's powerful execs or connected people and associates in motown america wanted to stand out and be a little different than the next individual with a cadillac fleetwood brougham or stand alone brougham so they would add little touches if they could either from the factory and coach builders etc to achieve this goal. This is a Cadillac brougham custom built edition done by the infamous Frank Galli who contracted at cadillac certain dealerships throughout the metro Detroit area and once your car arrived from the plant to the dealership the custom touches would be added before delivery. Frank Galli has rub shoulders with anybody who was somebody throughout his 60 year career from Muhammad Ali to your favorite sports, music, political and Hollywood icon’s and his work on cars are seldom seen on the road from the 60s, 70s or 80’s in this case. Back then unless you were in a certain circle you had to know somebody that knows somebody! So this is a true time capsule that's not only rare and unique from the era of dominance by general motors, oh what many of us would give to have those days back we took for granted. He autographed the pinstripes he installed at the dealership (see pic). Today in 2020 we capture those nostalgic moments from the past when we possess memorabilia and vehicles that highlight and show these youngsters in generation X & Z the best that america had to offer the world at one time. 49,000 original miles, lights, heat, wipers, doors, seats, windows work. This car sat in the garage for years and has only been driven but for a few occasions since the early 2000's and is now finally being sold to finalize the estate. The vinyl top is in mint condition, Leather Interior are gorgeous and in very good condition and would be in excellent condition if not for the sagging headliner that needs to be glued back up in a couple places and it should be fine. tires are 70 percent. wire wheels are in good shape, all the glass is in good shape, rust free but has surface rust in the 3 areas shown in the pictures (1). surface bubble spot under pass rear door handle (photo) (2). surface rust under the drivers side pass rear door (photo) (3). some micro paint chips that have surface rust (see photo), these 3 imperfections are noticeable upon very detailed examination by the owner's eyes and keep the car from being legally described in excellent condition, so i will say it is in good condition with the flaws mentioned. The frame is all clear and solid, the doors shut snug and tight, the electric trunk works well along with the power button, the radio works, power locks work and keys work with manual locking as well. Black exterior w/ factory gold flake/white pinstripe & gold emblems, Black vinyl top, Black leather interior, no cracks in the dash, fuel gage accurate, speedometer accurate. Engine runs great just had the fluids topped off and starts up everytime and never driven in snow.This is one any cadillac enthusiasts would want to add to their collection and add a few touches to get this car back to pristine show worthy condition, any question please message me thank you. I may sell the car privately but i will not end the auction if i have auction bidders who are seriously interested.
