The Eldo Brougham is a very rare car as only around 100 were built each year. I worked at a high end resto shop where a customer bought one in for resto(1957). It had sat for decades and was really beyond restoration .$200,000 later and only the body work was done. Air suspension,stainless roof ,3/4 size compared with other caddilas,6 electric motors in each seat, all needed work but the car was never finished and went to another shop where it sits taking up space.

Hello! Thanks for another interesting and informative video! The triple -stripe tire in the trunk may very well be an exact match to the tires that were on the vehicle when it was brand new!

This is gonna be a difficult restoration, but we’ll worth it! Love the stainless steel roof on these models. Hemings featured a car like this in their magazine a few months ago. Good luck fixing it!

My advice is to start at the engine and transmission, get them running, then move to the fuel system, and coolant. After That, take care of rust issues, and then begin tracking down the electrical gremlins. I must say, that you have a beautiful Car in your possession, and is worth rebuilding. Thank you for your Video.

Very cool 🤙 have about a dozen or so old cadillac's no 58's though. This is a nice find.

PS, The Broughams have there own cylinder block, but even if rusty can be rebuilt. Originally designed to have Fuel injection,it couldn't be made to be reliable so the tried and true tri power set up was used. The gauges are pretty specail and use their own Brougham specific items. There is a guy in the US caddy club who makes a replacement module which allows the gauges to work properly. The mild custom work could have been done in 58' as the economy was booming and people had real money to spend on things like getting their new car personalised. the upholstery could be original,because there were 300 plus different options for the interior so no two Broughams are alike .

The shifter should work. The lockout solinode is unique as it disables the rear inside door handles the rear door when placed in gear. There is nothing that should be preventing it from going into gear. Linkage is likely bent from moving around

I have made modern fuel pump suspended from the OE tank cover work for a few owners.

Bro how did you get this car its my dream car best looking car ever made how much did you pay for it??? Gosh id pay 15 grand if i could find one

That Cadillac looks like the trunk you opened it from inside from the glovebox

You have your work cut out for you there are Cadillac restorers in the USA which have been collecting and possibly you can contact them for information and inspiration and maybe help with parts contacts you might need to help you with 😮❤your rust issues aren’t to bad mostly surface which can be sanded down and sandblasted lightly and primed and painted. Hopefully you can free up the motor and get it running properly with the kits available. 😅❤
