its 4" longer than a 69 town & country but a 73 town & country is 1" longer because of the the bumper boobs !

OUCH!

Once again..... the seller has done little actual work, yet is dreaming on price...……. Fleetwoods are the longer Cad wheel base, which is definitely longer than a comparable C-body, but not by a lot...…. maybe a few of these were built as "civilian" wagons as opposed to hearse/ambulances. Definitely some rust in the rear quarters, not sure about the rest. Interesting car......

Looks like that caddy could have benefitted from torsion bar suspension.

One paint job away from being a hearse.

The commercial chassis was 156 inch wheel base , these where around 133. So if you want a big wagon get one like this. This is a combination , can be used as a hearse or ambulance .

You need fins on a Caddy.

They chose to make their money up front.
Waiting 50 years for a payback is kinda long...

What I admire about the old coach builders is their quality.
Notice that this hearse didn't a square mile of ugly black vinyl to hide shortcuts in the roof.

I'd rather have the Dodge...

That wagon is probably not based on a commercial chassis although the rear doors do look longer than a stock Fleetwood. More likely is that it was custom made by a coachbuilder or body shop by grafting a contemporary wagon rear body onto a sedan. The factory never built wagons but a lot were done as custom builds over many years. I used to own this 1979 Fleetwood Brougham wagon conversion, always sorry I sold it.
