Description

In 1957 a tubular X-frame without side rails was adopted. This resulted in greater structural rigidity and provided for a lower body without a loss of usable space. Front end styling was marked by rubber bumper guard tips and dual circular lamps set into the lower bumper section. Side trim was revised and a dual taillight theme was used. The 60S Fleetwood long-deck four-door hardtop sedan featured a wide, ribbed bright metal fairing extending from the lower rear half of the door to the back bumper. A Fleetwood nameplate appeared on the rear deck lid, which also housed the backup lamps on this car. The car you see here is a nicely restored '57 Cadillac Series 60 Fleetwood that we recently purchased out of a collection where it's been for the last 7 years in Illinois. The car has benefitted from an extensive restoration just a few years ago to make it what you see today. Finished in the original colors of Beige with a white top, the paint on the car is in wonderful condition with no notable imperfections. The front and rear chrome bumpers were both rechromed during the restoration and look great. The rest of the stainless, bright work and emblems around the car looks equally as nice with no imperfections to note. All doors shut like they did in '57 with tight seals and perfect lines. Inside, the correct buckskin beige interior looks great and is new throughout. Refinished in period correct materials and colors, there is no wear showing to any of the seats, carpet or door panels. The car does have the optional 6-way power seat and all functions work as they should. The windows and antenna are also power and work with no problems. The car also comes equipped with the rare power trunk opener and closer. Under the hood, the 365 Cu In V8 runs great and is very nicely detailed. Connected to the automatic transmission, the car is a great driver and performs effortlessly on the road. Turn the key and the car starts right up with no pumping of the gas. The wheels are wrapped with newer white wall bias ply tires that all have good tread life left on them. Correct Cadillac hubcaps cover the wheels. This is a Classic Fleetwood that would be a prize in any collection or simply as a great Sunday driver that you can fit all of your friends an neighbors in. The mileage currently shows 17,255 and the VIN number is 5760134362. The car is being sold on a clean Illinois title.
