26,420 actual miles. This survivor looks like a restored show car! It functions like new: the air is ice cold, the horns sound like a train, its quiet as a mouse in slippers. The Fleetwood Sixty Special Brougham was the epitome of Cadillac excellence. Its longer wheelbase made for a roomy interior and a ride that felt like it was on air.
EXTERIOR: The original metal is outstanding. No rust, damage, dents, or scrapes. Original Willow paint is amazing considering it's claimed to be original. I could only find a few insignificant flaws. in great condition. It has a smooth, shiny finish. All the chrome and trim are sparkling and straight. The original white vinyl top is excellent. The glass is crystal clear. The original weatherstrips and seals are still soft. Replaced dual stripe tires look classy.
INTERIOR: It is practically like new throughout. It's like sitting in 1st class, especially in back with the carpeted footrests. The upholstery, plastic trim, carpet, headliner is like new. It's not worn, stained, smelly, torn or cracked. All the interior lights work, the Brougham has reading lights in back. It has original floor mats. The dash area is mint. Seatbelts are like new. The original owner's manuals are in the glovebox. It is full of power accessories.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT: Original condition and its clean. The big 472 V8 runs smooth and quiet. All the hoses, stickers and components are in place. The horns sound like a freight train, the cruise control works, washers are hooked up.
TRUNK COMPARTMENT: The power trunk release works. It looks brand new! Under the trunk lid and jamb are mint. The wall-to-wall carpet liner is mint. Original spare and jack are in place. An extra hubcap and a new car cover is included.
UNDERSIDE: All original. Never had an aftermarket undercoat. Solid with some surface rust.
This is one of the cleanest survivors I have ever seen! It functions as good as it looks too.

Let us know if you have any questions or feedback. Thanks for watching!
Started my service career at the local Cadillac dealership in 1974. This car represents extremely well the one or two year old Cadillacs we had coming in for service or that were sitting on the front row of the used car lot. Beautiful car Jay, and I have fond memories of the quality and how they drove.
What a gorgeous example of this fine luxury vehicle from the early 70s. I rode in cars like this as a child, only 6 years old. Reminds me of my childhood. Unmatched luxury. You feel safe in something this big and heavy. Wish I could own it.
Cadillac luxury...I get relaxed looking at it
Absolutely love this car..
Reminds me of one of my dad's Cadillacs.
This one looks like it was kept in a temp controlled garage it's entire life..
I keep watching for the rear to scrape the walls. 😆
When I was little, my folks had a 1975 Coupe deVille, maroon with white vinyl and white leather.
Big fan of 1970's Cadillac Fleetwood
Great color combinations. Cadillac did excess tastefully in '72.
Aunt Gladys called and wants the slipcovers back on the Broyhill.
Wonderful landyacht 👍👍
A real fine one!! WOW!!!
Fantastic color combo, very stylish and elegant.
Thanks for showing and Greetings from Austria 💯👍👍😎
Greetings from Naples Florida! I bet Krampaslauf in Austria at Christmas was absolutely amazing! I remember showing my daughter video of the parade to my daughter when she was young. She loves Krampus. 👍
@@beezlbubba hello over there!! at first, Greetings back to you - indeed, it's always a great experience and each year is special 😁👍👍😎
Beautiful! I love big cars,I miss them!
And the parking spaces to match. I really miss those, no lie. 🔥
beautiful, the closest i got to that is my '72 triple black cadillac sedan deville, floated like a dream.
I owner a 71 Coupe De Ville black with blue cloth interior. I loved that car.
WOW!!!!! what a beauty!! I just noticed how much nicer the tail fins are compared to the 75-76 models. The interior & overall look seems more understated & better quality than the later models. Quite the gem.
I had a 76 Sedan Deville back in the 2000's. But I wish it was a 70-2 instead. But I did have the 500ci. Miss that car.
Fine example of a time capsuled automobile. Great presentation!!
Would be a dream if you guys opened a showroom down here in Naples Florida. I'd bet you's sell many cars quicker with the crazy money in this town, not to mention the taxes everyone would save. Love the museum, the cars, and your presentation of them! Got a friend who bought a 67 Caprice 2dr with a 307 off you. BIG guy, I'm sure you remember him. 👍
Growing up my dad had this year model but white with black interior. What a ride.
Indeed I think the most well-kept survivor car I've seen come through your company ..... This car no doubt is the epitome of excellence .. As you stated, the most extreme in comfort such as Cadillac and Lincoln offered in this era. I would have no reservations with starting to California and back in this one. As for pricing, where would you find a car to equal this for quality today for this kind if money? Great colors in and out ..... This gentleman couldn't have spec'd it out with better taste. Great find!
This is what class looks like 👍
Now I am nostalgic for the 1976 Coupe d'elegance I had ... same color in and out, except my vinyl top was tan like the interior. But this car is even bigger!
I was 21 yrs old when this Caddy was produced. Believe me, this Caddy is a true ' Lead Sled ' - look out 49-51 Merc's street rods
Beautiful 1972 Fleetwood Brougham 60!
My parents had a 1972 Sedan de Ville, same color. We took a trip from Phoenix to Salem Oregon when the car was new. I was twelve and impressed that my dad drove 120 mpg in Nevada. There was no speed limit back then. He purchased a new Cadillac every five years until 2007. Great cars with the exception of the 1982 with the HT4100 V8. I remember driving his 1972 when I got my license, it would do burnouts for a mile.
*Volo museum Auto Sales* She's a real beauty, thank-you sir for taking the time to show us. GOD Bless.
Stunning. Looking at the still pictures of the undercarriage, you can tell it is an Illinois car. Here in Arizona, the bottom would be as rust free as the top. Removing fasteners to do maintenance or repairs would be a challenge on this car.
You are correct in your observation.
He didn't mention that the rear footrests will not stay up like they were suppose to. Also the rear armrest looked like it wanted to not stay down. Gorgeous Brougham though.
All the pimp's and players drove Fleetwood brougham when I was a kid now I own one A 96 Fleetwood brougham 22 inch spokes and vouges crome big daddy grill burgundy with tan interior every body compliments me I love that car!!
Enjoy it!! 😎
I thought I was NOT going to turn around for the BIG
BEAUTIFUL CARS 🙏👍😍♥️
They don't make'em like this anymore, and WHOA - the asking price is great! (5:43 - LOL)
Had a 74, these are great cars!
I love this car, I knew an older gent who lived near me that owned one, always saw him drive it on the weekends, I went for a ride one day it's like riding on cushions. Who wants to go fishing, pun intended.
Not a single scratch, rip, or finger smudge, the car's practically brand new. 51 years old, and yet still brand new. Wowwww.
If I ever decided to live in my car this would be the one, my Grand Marquis doesn't even compare!😂😏
It is BEAUTIFUL and STUNNING ❤
🙏👍😍♥️🔥
back when car designers knew how to design a beautiful car
But low-quality.
@@binxbollingof course... Because nowadays cars have high quality, right? lmaooo
lovely example of a Classic Caddy my first experience with a Cadillac was a used 1981 Coupe Deville my late maternal grandmother drove from 1983 to 1988 though hers was Colonial Yellow over Dark Saddle Brown with the Brown Landau Vinyl top over the backseat
Here's an old term that he didn't use in this pitch a lot of people referred to this kind of large ride as a land yacht. It's a bygone era America was obsessed at one time building very very large cars. Those days are long gone.
Those days have not really gone .. those big land yachts were replaced by huge pickup trucks, upgraded to look like a luxury car inside.. America is still obsessed with having big vehicles.
The Fleetwood is a Sedan DeVille with a 3 inch graft between the front and rear doors which shows very clearly for some reason on this 1972 when seen in profile. Maybe it's the light color.
Well if things become a reality? It would be amazing. Great looking cars! 👍
We made it a reality for someone!
Great looking Caddy!!!!
Beautiful Caddy.
A great American road car. A great highway cruiser. A great vacation ride.
Nice to hear Brougham pronounced properly instead of the BRO HAM moniker some use.
You buy your car wax by the gallon for this one Jay, nice find!
...and 8 miles per gallon, but who cares?!?! Nice car 🚗 👌
You could get 11 or 12 on the highway.
Survivor cars are the best! My 75 Buick LeSabre is a survivor too. Wouldnt have it any other way.
I've owned four 1972 Fleetwoods and this is a beautiful example. A few things I noticed: The rub strips along both sides of the car are replacements -- not original. (The originals had a rubber inlay the same color as the roof that ended in a point ahead of the taillights. These rub strips seem to be covered with white tape.) The passenger side outside mirror was a dealer install -- the factory version would have a remote joystick to the right of the radio. (And that's the bare-bones, three-speaker monaural AM-FM unit -- not stereo.) It's unusual for a Fleetwood in not having the fiber-optic lamp monitors on the front fenders and rear package shelf. Beginning Jan. 1, 1972 they became optional equipment, in an effort to bring the sticker price down in an era of price controls and high inflation. And lastly, the fabric windlace molding along the rear edge of the driver door opening is extremely frayed -- unusual for a car with such low mileage. Also I wonder if at some point this car had at least a partial respray. It looks like there's paint on the driver side lower rear quarter molding. Also, the front seats are not "power on each side" (8:16). The passenger side seat has the manual adjuster:

Maybe you could tell better,,,I didn’t see a tilt wheel lever.
@@curtcollett2893 It doesn't have the Tilt & Telescope Steering Wheel (yes, that's what the option was called; it was $92.00 extra).
Also, there is no power antenna and no rear defroster as the switches would have been to the right side of the speedometer, where the Cadillac script is. I've never seen a Fleetwood Brougham with so few options!
FYI, the interior color is called "maize". My dad had a 1973 Sedan de Ville with that interior color (but in leather).
@@curtcollett2893 You're right -- no Tilt & Telescope. Also the Cruise Control button on the turn signal stalk has been replaced. The original would be steering wheel / dash color (in this car, it looks like Maize). The upholstery fabric is something Cadillac called Minuet Cloth.
@@tomb7382 1970 thru 1972 Cadillacs didn't have a power antenna. They used a dipole antenna embedded in the windshield. It looks like two very thin black wires in a T shape.
Beautiful example of the Fleetwood. I have two comments, the hood ornament is an add on (typically an Eldorado part), I don’t see the light monitors on the front fenders as well of the rear monitor on the package shelf.
You'd have to point these things out! Now I have to watch the video again and really pay attention to these things you mentioned. I had a 76, and the rear monitor lights were at the top of the rear window frame.
There's no opera lamp on the c - pillar. They were optional.....
@@terrycox8279He wasn't talking about any opera lamps. Where'd you come up with that?
Really liking that Caddy👍
My dream car. Beige Cadillac. Whooppee!
Beautiful.
I owned two CADILACS IN THE 70s-------A 1973 Cadillac Coupe Deville---black on black like a Limo----which had a quarter side windows which was power driven --to supplement the two larger side windows----it was similar in size to this 1972 car ---and a 1976 Cadillac Coupe Deville, which was the last full sized car for Deville-----same color as above but with a black interior and cushioned top ----the 73 had a 472 4 barrel engine -----but the 1976 ----the last year model had a 500 horse version. These cars drove like you were on a cloud ---going from O to 60
those hood hinges have to lubed to prevent collapse
That's a beautiful car I'd love to own it and freek it out!
Probably has the towing capacity of a truck!
Nothing drove like a Caddy back then. My Dad had a 58, 63, and 77. And I was driving muscle cars. I could have been rich if I kept them all.
You'd only be rich if some fool was willing to pay WAY more than they're worth. I currently have a '76 Fleetwood with 38K original miles, an '84 Coupe DeVille with 25K original miles and a '94 Fleetwood Brougham which has around 80K but only because I drive it a lot. If I sold them all for their true value to another collector, I would hardly get rich off them.
Beautiful!
Gorgeous
id take that over 3 new cars
Awesome 😎👍 Cadillac Fleetwood
Really Nice!
Price. Asking for Caddy? Beautiful Car
Another great car!
Steep into the car mr president Jay grams, drivning to volo town and have dinner with the family, from the batcave comes this awsome car 🤟 thanks Jay grams president of volo auto museum and russel for perfect photografy 🤟 from tom your friend now and always 🤩 🤩 USA 😎 ☀️ 💎
Caddy Big Daddy
Gorgeous car 🚗
Yes 😍
If that car was all black (no vinyl top ) and black interior I would buy it now.
i love it !!!
Love gold white wall sweet
The body side molding is not original it is vinyl in an aluminum channel (called CalTrim here in California) otherwise very, very nice!
This is my favorite year for Cadillac. It did have a recall on them. The master cylinder would lock up on you. Also, this car is missing the turn signal lamps that were on the hood & the lights in the center of the headliner that were red & would blink when you turned on the directional & when you stepped on the brakes.
What a beauty !🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
Impressive
What does placeholder mean?
very nice car...
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I want to know what cars guys like this don't try to sell. What do they keep for themselves?
watch the 1947 film “The Bishop’s Wife” starring Loretta Young, David Niven and Cary Grant. Niven played Bishop Henry “Brougham” Also, is the body side moulding original to this car?
Big Caddy. No Opera Lights.
Yes, I noticed that too. I had a 71 Fleetwood and it had opera lights. I loved them. I noticed it doesn't have the manual remote control for the right hand mirror by the radio. Peace.
Yes I noticed that too. That was actually an option. I don't like them without the opera lights. I have a 1976 Fleetwood and a 1984 Coupe DeVille and they both have the opera lights. I think they are just SO classy.
Huge car
Mine is bigger. I have a 1976 Fleetwood.
@@retroguy9494 Excellent!
@@Damone7653 Yea I really like it! I wanted one ever since they were new when I was a little kid. It took me 35 years, but I finally managed it!
Looks like the lead car at a Funeral Home.
I shouldn't have to say that, but THIS car is not for everyone. It's not destined to live & stay outside in weather or become someone's commuter car, as a savings over a newer Luxury Car. THIS car must be kept & maintained exactly as it was the past 51 years. Otherwise that pristine, like new condition of everything will deteriorate sooner than your next birthday 🎂
Wish that was a 76 I wonder what a 76 Talisman would be worth now. I used to own one. I was a fool
What it would be WORTH? Or what these pirates who sell them want for it? There is a BIG difference you know.
@retroguy94 yes, actually your spot on.
I'm guessing the average gross on cars like this 10-15k after all work.
The word “pristine” means without flaw.
👍👍👍👌👌👌👌🌹🌹🌹BEAUTIFUL 👍👍👌🌹CARS
This car is like a sofa on wheels..
Does it need leaded fuel?
It does not.
i am 71 years old--just like new...
Für mich die schönste Cadillac Limousine. Mein identisches Fahrzeug in dunkelgrün metallic mit grünem Vinyldach st leider nach aufwendiger Restaurierung in unsere Halle neben 18 anderen Fahrzeugen verbrannt.
Me gusta el carro
1 word... BOAT, & blocks per gallon. LOL

Are those Vogue Tyres?
No they are not vogues, they are called royal seals. They were alternatives to the vogue tires back in the day
@@marvintaylor5332 I swear, you learn something new every day.... 👍👍
Much prefer the 1962. Cadillacs should have fins.
How did you fit that in there?!?! 😂😂😂
👀...🔥👍😎👍🔥
Gangsta
My mom had this car I took my driving test with it got 4 points off for wide turns but it was grate cold fill the back seat with girls after a game.
😎👍
The particular body side moldings appearing on this car, running from just aft of the front wheel arches, across the doors, across the rear quarter side marker lights, and ending just forward of the taillights are not original to this car.
These cars left the factory with body side molding, but they were a different style.
I can only speculate as to why this car’s body side moldings were removed and replaced. The moldings I see on this car look good, but they are not original.
that would destroy a new car today
Too. Steep 15. Or 18. ?
I've been a Cadillac buff since these were new. I've been following them and pricing since then too. I even have a few of my own. You're pretty much in the ballpark at 18.
People have to realize that if they actually plan to drive this car, because he said it it has all the original hoses, belts, etc. they are ALL going to have to be replaced. You can't drive a 50 year old car with original belts and hoses. Probably the tires as well.
Unless, of course, you want to make it a trailer queen.
I believe he mentioned those are newer tires... would not have had the gold stripe, and the white wall would have been slightly wider. My guess is the belts and hoses have been replaced at least once at some point during maintenance. 51 years is a long time, buona fortuna, paesan'!
@@brockricci You're right. He DID say 'newer tires' but HOW new? You can put tires on a car, not drive it hardly at all and over time, even if stored in a garage, the tires will still dry rot, break down or get flat spots. As a collector myself, I have had this experience even when presented with receipts of when the tires were replaced when I bought the car. You are also correct when you say the tires are not 'period correct' with that gold stripe and thinner white wall.
But don't guess on anything regarding belts and hoses. He said the ball joints, shocks and muffler were replaced. On a 26K original mile car, you never know what has been replaced. Case in point. When I bought by 1984 Coupe Deville about 13 years ago, it had 24K original miles. It only had one owner and it was garaged. However, she was in an assisted living for the last 15 years or so of her life and the car just sat. You have no idea what I had to replace on that car. You name it and it needed it. Belts, hoses, tires, bulbs, wipers, air conditioning work, brakes, rotors, alternator, etc. Even the oil pan gasket is leaking but I never replaced it because its a very small drip and it would necessitate dropping the whole oil pan. I've spent over $7K on that car. It's not good to just let a car sit and not run it. So when I see a car with this kind of mileage, unless it can be otherwise proven, I assume it's going to need a LOT of replacement parts!
I disagree. This past summer I purchased a 71 Olds 98 Luxury Sedan with 13,000 original miles AND original belts & hoses. My 20 yo son & I drove it cross-country with no issues. Would i recommend this for someone who doesn’t have a sense of adventure? No. But it can - and has - been done!
