"90" Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham d'Elegance Coupe

[Ron Hamilton]

I have always wished that Cadillac would have continued the rear drive full-sized coupe after 1984, So I decided to build my own once Revell released this kit.

I painted it with Testors'1995 Chevrolet Dark Cherry Lacquer, with a silver pearl urethane trim like the factory, and a Dark Cherry Cabriolet Roof..

The interior was too plain, so I upgraded it to the "d'elegance" pillowback trim in light gray"leather".

I used a set of Detail Master 100 spoke photoetched wire wheels, mounted on a set of "Vogue" Tyres.

I used to own a real 1982 coupe thats the last of the real and the big caddys

I like this! I've thought of doing something very similar with one of these, or possibly just converting it into a Brougham, fill in the sunroof,and do a "if I had ordered it" car.

Great build, and something that really does look like a car GM should've built.

Where exactly did you come across the wheels? Also, is the chassis set up so it can be made stock ride-height or did you have to modify it?

Nice build. GM should've kept making full size 2dr cars. Not everyone likes 4dr sedans.

Nice, Ron! Three years ago, or now, still nice!

No, it is the plastic bodied kit.

VERY nice job Ron. I used to build those cars. You have no idea of the types of options that were available on them! The aftermarket had JUST as many add on components for Caddy's as they do for Camaro's and Mustangs! Caddy's RULE!!!!
