It is probably a Fleetwood 75 limo. Note the flag on the front and I presume it hold someone important because of the camera on the left. |

Was it a sedan or a longer limousine? |

A sedan usually refers to the regular production wheelbase. A limousine is usually a sedan with a bulkhead behind the front seat with a divider window. The limousine was usually built on the longest wheelbase. Cadillac built sedans of different wheelbase most years, standard, longer (Fleetwood or Sixty Special) and the long wheelbase model 75 which was usually a limo but there were some sedan i.e. no divider window behind the front seat. The divider window is usually the defining structure for a limo. |

From the size of the back light (the rear window) seen in the photo, it's a "Fleetwood Brougham" and not a "Fleetwood 75". BTW, I know of at least one "Fleetwood Brougham" (a 1966 model) that had a limousine-type division glass. It was owned by French aeronautics CEO, Marcel Dassault. |

Spalding Gray, in his monologue "Swimming to Cambodia," described acting in this movie, and being stuck in this car for hours waiting for the take to start, while the car's air conditioner and power windows weren't functioning in tropical heat and humidity. -- Last edit: 2010-03-13 06:19:04 |
