1984 CADILLAC FLEETWOOD

FLEETWOOD BROUGHAM

Brougham sedans had a more closed-in back window plus bright belt and hood moldings, large rocker moldings, and wheel covers that were also used on limos. Electro-luminescent opera lamps were standard. The coupe had a stylish roof with custom cabriolet vinyl top enclosing a distinctive rear quarter window. Standard equipment was the same as DeVille coupe, but adding four-wheel power disc brakes, a remote-control right mirror, and 45/55 dual-comfort front seats.

FLEETWOOD LIMOUSINE

Limousines carried the same standard equipment as DeVille, plus accent striping, opera lamps, and HR78 x 15-D tires. Only the formal limousine had the six-way power seat. Fleetwood limos still used the variable-displacement 6.0- liter V8-6-4 engine.
