Other than the Series 75 limousine, you couldn’t get a 1964 Cadillac any bigger or more opulent than the Fleetwood Series 60 Special. It was a large, 4-door hardtop that measured more than 18 feet in length with a wheelbase of more than 10 feet. This edition of the brand was parked 15 years ago with half that time spent in a garage. It has a lot of rough edges and hopes someone will come along to restore it to its original glory. Located in Arlington, Texas, this once-proud automobile is available here on Barn Finds Classifieds for $4,000 OBO.

There were three categories of Cadillac in 1963-64. The offerings began with the least expensive (ha!) Cadillac, the Series 62, followed by the DeVilles, and finally the top-end Fleetwoods. The Fleetwoods included the Eldorado convertible, the 60 Special, and the 75. The 60 Special got its name from its body type (code 6039). In 1964, Cadillac would build 14,550 of the 60s, like the seller’s car.

Though reported mileage on this Caddy is under 52,000, we’re told the engine was completely rebuilt in 1989 with maybe 25,000 miles added since. It was running 15 years ago but will need some coaxing to do so again. A battery and a starter are needed for certain, followed by tires, hoses and belts, a tune-up, and the like. That’s just to get it back on the road. Under the hood resides Cadillac’s big 429 cubic inch V8 with a TH-400 automatic transmission.

Past all that, you’d want to address cosmetic issues, of which there are plenty. While we’re told there is a minimal amount of rust in the bottom of the trunk, most of the car has differing levels of surface rust to be prepped before repainting the Cadillac. The interior has not been exempt from the effect of passing time, so it will have to be redone as well. The seller says the 60 Special is complete, so if you don’t see it in the photos, perhaps these items are in the trunk.
