| Hmm, that's weird- it's referred to as a Buick for the whole ad, clearly a 93+ Caddy in the main pic, then at the back picture it's got wagon tails. | |

| That's one interesting wagon, er hearse there. I ran the VIN and it was a 92 RMW (with a country code of 4 for the first VIN digit?). Mentions it was a hears conversion but to a caddy? It's an early 92 too, wonder if the fleetwood nose is original or not being the first one didn't appear until 93. http://www.compnine.com/vid.php?vin=4GLDB9075NW407800&x=9&y=5 | |

| It's a 92 roadmaster with a fwb clip, fwb front doors and custom rocker trim the rest of the way. I bet if you opened the doors it would be a Tbi dash in there. | |

| I'm wondering this- can anyone confirm the two pics are the same vehicle? It sort of seems like the first picture doesn't show the rear wagon tails like the second picture does? If they are both the same car that really is one odd duck. Wonder if it was converted by the coachbuilder or by another person after the fact... | |

| Two different cars all together. The first pic is a Cadillac conversion. It leaves the factory with b-pillar forward sheet metal, then heads to the coach builder. The bottom pic shows a wagon rear with lights and bumper with no chrome caddy bumper. And South Carolina plates to boot. | |

| I question the mileage?...... being that old with so little miles after doing back n forth trips to the carolinas to hanover nh which is an hour and a half northwest of nashua......
I am willing to bet the car was in an accident and the funeral home took the insurance check, somebody bought it wrecked and swapped a caddy front end to get more interest in the car for a re-sale......
Im almost 100% sure cloth was not an option on FWB in 93 - 96....... | |

| Maybe not a Brougham but they did have cloth int option. But, like indy said, the reflection in the black car of the second pic confirms the two pics are two different cars. You can see the wire hubcaps and belt line stainless trim. there's a 93 fwb on ebay with cloth | |

Like you said, probably standard on the brougham package, leather must be an option on base fleetwoods..... those seats look cheap, not that the leather was any better, I love classic blue guts, but man those look bad | |

| Just to add to the cloth thing, Fred L. Had a DCM baretop 95 Fleet that I ALMOST bought, until I saw the pics of the ruby red cloth interior that had faded to a gross color pink. That was the only Fleet I actually saw with cloth... | |
