Apr 15, 2024,00:28 AM
(before you die, not after). The auction listing says:
This 1974 Cadillac Fleetwood Talisman Brougham is a 60,967 actual mile example from new. The car retains its original Cotillion White paint, blue interior and full white padded vinyl roof. It features a 472ci V8 engine and automatic transmission. The Talisman package option features four-place seating in Medici crushed velour, full length center consoles with writing set in front and rear vanity, seat back pockets, reclining passenger seat, special Turbine wheel covers, assist straps, deep pile carpeting and stand up hood ornament. Standard and optional equipment includes power dual comfort seats, power windows, power door locks, tilt/telescoping steering column, cruise control, automatic climate control, remote trunk release, power steering, power brakes, AM/FM radio with integrated 8-track player and seldom-seen matching deluxe pillow and bathrobe.
Wouldn't that be great protection for your best watch when you want to go out on the town? Wrapped in your Medici crushed velour robe, head resting on the pillow, taking notes about important things in your mind, having a drink from the rear seat locker, etc. Who needs Full Self Driving when you have a chauffeur or a car like this? (No valet parking please!)
