Here’s one for the record books, a 1970 Cadillac Fleetwood lowrider. Complete with hydraulics and what the seller says is a “good body, nice patina“. Hmmm, maybe, it’s a bit of a sight too but that may be due to the fact that there’s just so much of it. OK, I’ll bite, let’s see what’s here. This long and low Caddy is located in Los Angeles, California and is available, here on craigslist for $2,950.

If you think this sucker looks like an incredibly long car, you’d be right as its length is 245″ (20.4 feet) and it’s riding on a wheelbase that’s just a hair under 150″ (12.5 feet). Garagable? Probably not – this one doesn’t look like it has experienced inside storage anytime in recent history. As far as that twenty-foot stretch goes, the body looks sound – there’s no evidence of rot-through and that may be due to a California provenance. Still, it would be wise to check the underside – that thing is resting pretty close to the ground. One of the Fleetwood Seventy-Five’s most distinctive features is its landau irons, they’ve been removed but are included in the sale. One surprise is to find the original wheel covers still in place, a ride like this is usually wearing some shiny spats of some kind.

Looking stock is the 375 gross HP, 472 CI V8 engine. The seller adds, “Starts easily and runs well with a new battery“. The engine appears complete, original, and untouched with the possible exception of the valve cover color – I remember this vintage Cadillac engine being blue but I may be mistaken too. The odometer reading is 97K miles so that may or may not be the authentic amount of motoring experience.

Inside is a romp room of old leather and patterned fabric along with jump seats and a divider that is said to be in decent shape. It actually shows better than I would have thought, though fumigation may be in order – there’s no telling how much fun this Fleetwood has seen over the years but this affluencey compartment appears to be in order.

Up front is an original stock leather front seat that’s wearing typical cracks but the dash pad is in nice, non-California condition – no noted splits. Old GM “Deluxe” seatbelts, such as those shown here, are becoming hard to source – never mind the expense!

Calling this Fleetwood a low-rider doesn’t mean it’s always on the down-low. It has a hydraulic pump, reservoir, relays, lines, etc. that allows vertical movement – whether this get-up will get a boat this size doing some serious hopping will require an inquiry – that’s actually a sight that I’d like to see! The seller adds, “I doubt you will find another that runs for this price anywhere“. I doubt you’ll find another low ridin’ Fleetwood Seventy-Five at any price, wouldn’t you agree?
