I am looking at buying a 1990 fleetwood, known problems are no radio, rear vanity lights dont work. Am i looking at a possible electrical prob? Also, what makes one of these a sixty special. This one has four or five "lines" in the lower side body moulding. Is there something in the VIN # that I could look for? Thanks guys, I am looking at it tomorrow afternoon-
The 60 Special is smaller, where as the Brougham is a full size Fleetwood

dont know enough about 90s Caddys, but it seems like the fleetwood was both a big Cadu ( brougham) and a more DeVille-like body size in 1990-very confusing indeed!!!!

Yeah, very confusing to me too. I would call them "small Fleetwood" and for the full size, I would called "Big Fleetwood"

Came back from seeing car, im kind of disappointed it wasnt cleaner. As I now understand it, Fleetwood was both a model unto itself and a package avail. for the BRO-HAM. this was a 4 door a little bigger than deville. It had digital gauges, leather int. The odometer said 62k and change, but somehow ,i dont believe it. The body was fair, the top was a funny grey that didnt really go w/ burg. ext. or porno red int. and it was filthy,rusted just nasty. My question to myself now is, what good is havin a cadu w/ supposed lo miles, if it looks like crap?
That moulding I mentioned before, couldnt tell if it was factory or a home depot job, But lets just say, " It looked good in the picture" - oh well, sorry caddy corner,( hey, at least I contributed some crappy photos)-back to the lincoln side. Thanks for everyones help-
