I had a used black 70 Fleetwood mint Limousine that I bought to have fun with. I drove it quite a bit with family and friends on trips. It was very well maintained. It’s been years now since I had it. My recollection was how swift it was for its size. And wondering how it burned up so much high octane fuel. Seemed to use so much you wondered if there was a hole in the fuel tank. There wasn’t. I think there were some added engine mods being a government car. Comfortable, divider window, trunk portholes, stereo override, and lots of room. The air conditioning would freeze you best one I ever had in any car. A Cadillac Fleetwood from that time period was a very solid, well built automobile. Wish I kept that one and several other rare ones I let slip away. It really limited my parking space at home was the main reason I sold it, plus I flipped at double what I paid as the other factor. Nice memory with that Cadillac. I saw ones similar in a Original Doors end of concert video with Jim Morrison inside, and also in one of the Dirty Harry sequels. Was cool to see one like it again. Not an everyday sight.
