1967 Fleetwood Cadillac history

Full-length bright metal body underscores; Fleetwood wreath and crest emblems for the hood, trunk and roof pillar; the lack of horizontal lower body rub moldings and Fleetwood block letters on the lower front fenders and passenger side of the deck lid characterized the new Sixty-Specials. The Brougham featured a padded Cordova vinyl top with model identification scripts attached to the roof "C" pillar. Added to the list of DeVille equipment were Automatic Level Control suspension and power operated ventipanes. The Brougham also included lighted fold-down trays; adjustable reading lamps and carpeted fold-down footrests.
