Yes, I believe so, at 234" IIRC.
Listing says the interior is leather, but based on the crack/tear in the picture showing the power seat switch (as well as the funky sewing pattern in the seats) I'm willing to bet that those seats are vinyl.

Just another Cool old car kinda like mine.20 feet away looks great.but no real prize.
I still like it even though its rough and I hate the spokes,love the proper Turbines...
I do believe that the '74-'76 Fleetwoods were the biggest and heaviest standard production Cadillacs ever.

Is it really a Brougham? They did all come with a vinyl roof.
Those wheels are grotesque.

It's a Brougham Brougham. :yes:
1971 was the last year that it was technically known as the Fleetwood Sixty Special Brougham. And yes, they were all Broughams since the base Sixty Special was almost a no show for the 1970 model year. In '72 the "Sixty Special" moniker was dropped and they became known as the Fleetwood Brougham.

According to Wiki, the longest regular production car was the 1973 Chrysler Imperial, coming in at 235.3 inches/5.9766 meters.
I find that hard to believe,Wiki has been WAY wrong before.

Depends on the definition of "regular production" though.
The '70 Fleetwood 75 was 245.3" long. Then in '74 it was 252"
So, does the 75 count as regular production?
I would say thats a yes but who really knows.
The Seventy Five could be considered a production car. It was built on a line separate from the regular line, then bodies shipped to be mated with the chassis coming down the line. They made about 1,500 per year, so I think that could be considered production.

Whatever. :doh: The average schmoo didn't buy a Series 75. They bought Coupe's, Sedans, and Convertibles. 1500/year in no way compares to the hundreds of thousands of the other models. Be it Cadillac, Lincoln or Chrysler.
I didn't say "Regular" production, did I? But you can't deny that any car built as such in a series can be called a production car.

The redhead on that link of yours Dave, :yeah baby: :yeah baby: :yeah baby:
She damned sure is hot. But I couldn't see any of them on Internet Explorer. I copied the address to Google Chrome, and mmmmmm. :yeah baby: :yeah baby:
I'm not sure about the one at the bottom of the page, I like a girl with hair. Go to ride her doggie and you might think you have a guy instead. :yikes:
Are we talking about Dave's link to the Urban Dictionary?
FireFox does not display any pics at all for me, nor does I.E.

We certainly are Gary. :yes:
Yep. One of the reasons I like Chrome. It will show video clips on sites that won't even open on IE. So far I like it. And it's a hell of a lot faster than IE too.
Lordy, the things I can learn on a Cadillac forum. Now I know what "smoo" is. This is better than a CB radio. ::)
Always new terms to entertain and amaze ypour friends with, eh?
Mike
I learned yesterday what is a sheeny as in 'don't buy a truck from Sheeny Bob'.
And the answer is? ???
It was used in the context of someone who sold used fire trucks that had been boogered to appear nicer then what they were.
Then why not just call it a luvdg. :LOL: :LOL:
I crack me up !!!
A Jewish rebuild.
Mike
Except Bob isn't Jewish; he's English.
You get my point, though.
