Description:
1988 Cadillac Brougham Brougham
Up for consideration is a 1988 Cadillac Brougham that you can drive home.With this Cadillac we would like to do a trade for a Dodge Caravan or similar. We would trade straight across for the right van. All offers accepted.
This car is Buttercup Yellow themed car with a Saddle Grain Leather Interior in very nice condition beyond the obvious flaws.
This Cadillac had 16,900actual miles on it when I purchased it from my 400 pound Grand DaD (the front seat condition tells the story)
This was his church only car from 1988 till 2014. I am the second owner, and drove this while I was waiting a year to buy our new family car.
My Son bought it from me in 2021 during covid so he could get to work on another state.
Now he is in Oklahoma with the car and it is snowing there. We are looking for a fourth owner of this solid American made beauty.
Although the actual verifiable mileage is quite low, this car has sat out in the weather for seven years in the same spot till my SoN bought it from me.
He installed a new fuel pump, cleaned and flushed the fuel tank, and drove it till it’s current 26,199miles.
The water pump went bad and has been professionally repaired within the last week or so with a lifetime Autozone pump.
The grille had to be removed to get the hood up because the cable snapped and the battery was too small for the car when the snow and freezing weather set in.
We bought a new (the right) battery at the local Walmart.
Since then, we have purchased a new Dorman Factory Replacement hood opening cable, unfortunately the cable was just that "a cable" - no sheath, since the original outer sheath was damaged when the emergency hood opening occurred in the snow after work late one night. The new cable and the grill are in the trunk and will need to be re-installed.
The Cadillac has no squeaks or odd noises of any sort. Power Steering is quiet lock to lock. Brakes are like new. Tires are 5,000 miles old, bought on 2022.
The interior needs a leather front seat recover (thanks Grand DaD) the headliner material needs replacing, and some door panel work will need to be performed to make this car all original again.
It will need the plastic corners replaced as well as the license plate surround. (common on this body style if left sitting)
There is no rust on this Cadillac anywhere. This Brougham is an Original California car with absolutely no body damage of any kind other than the missing plastic pieces.(which they sell made of fiberglass now.)
The top suffered only when left out at the shop for some years, as space was limited, and will need some attention soon.
All missing moldings for around the rear of the top surround are in the trunk.
The heat works sometimes. I think there is something worked it’s way loose in the vacuum tubes near the controller, but the AC does not blow cold air as it should, this Cadillac has the R-12 type Freon.
The trunk interior is near perfect, almost like a show car. (Floor has a couple large stains that should be easily removed by Dawn dish washing liquid and water solution or interior cleaner)
Has the original unused spare and original jack in place. All the original stickers are still in very nice condition for their age.As you see in the trunk pics, most all the plastic is gone around the tail lights and license plate. (which is normal on these cars when left out for any length of time.) The original and correct fasteners are still there to use when replacing these items.
The car is currently tagged and located in Moore, Oklahoma.
This Cadillac can be driven from where it is currently located,as it runs and drives fine.
