Available for auction is this 1985 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham finished in brown over a beige leather interior. Cadillac introduced the Brougham name in 1916 which continued to adorn luxury cars for the rest of the century. This 1985 Fleetwood is said to have been cared for by the same two owners for most of its life and features a 4.1L V8 paired with a four-speed automatic transmission, a vinyl roof, Twilight Sentinel headlights, electronic climate control, an AM/FM/cassette stereo, power-adjustable front seats, and more. This Cadillac t is now being offered for auction by its seller out of Florida while showing just over 44k miles on its odometer.
This Fleetwood comes finished in brown with a matching vinyl top. Details include chrome bumpers and trim, a power antenna, and a set of 15″ steel wheels equipped with chrome wire-spoke covers. The wheels come dressed in a set of Michelin whitewall radial tires from 2022. The seller states that the finish remains in very good overall condition while showing some minor age-related wear. Additional images can be found in the gallery along with a clean CARFAX report.
Inside, the seats are upholstered in beige leather with matching door panels and carpets accented by woodgrain trim. Amenities include electronic climate control, power windows and door locks, an AM/FM cassette stereo, 6-way power-adjustable front seats, cruise control, illuminated vanity mirrors, and Twilight Sentinel headlights. The seller confirms that all gauges, electronics, and accessories remain functional.
Power comes from a fuel-injected 4.1L V8 which produces up to 135 HP and 200 lb-ft of torque. The rear wheels are driven by way of a 4-speed automatic transmission. The CARFAX report shows three maintenance history entries including service in September 2022 with new spark plugs, a fuel filter, an air conditioning compressor, and a recharge of the air conditioning system. The seller notes that the car has been regularly serviced throughout its life and that there are no outstanding service items at this time.
This sale will include a clean title.

@Proteng Thanks Tom; regardless, it's a nice looking car. GLWTS
@DrT Sorry for the delayed response. I made contact with the seller and he doesn't know anything about a head bolt upgrade. I wish I could give you a better, more definitive answer.

Do you feel lucky... the dreaded 4100; ouch! I've read that there was a head bolt upgrade/mod to solve the engine's design flaw; do you know if that has been addressed?
