The Series 60 Special Fleetwood sedan was again based on an extended General Motors C-Body shell with 50mm wider front and rear doors. The tailfins, built-in rear bumper design and egg crate grille seen on the lower-priced lines were used. Appearing again, on the rear roof pillar, were four slanting chrome slashes. Instead of the standard wide stone shields, the 60 Special had a thinner type which curved upwards along the forward contour of the rear fender and incorporated an attractive ribbed insert panel. At the rear of the car, a band of chrome extended across the bottom of the fender skirts and quarter panels. Standard equipment included cloth and leather upholstery combinations and leather-grained doors and instrument panel.
