That's the real thing. I was half expecting to see a B-body wagon with Cadillac hood, fenders and doors fitted, but this thing has the Fleetwood 133 inch wheelbase and room for footrests. What a magnificent beast!

When I was seven years old my Dad took me to Manhattan to the New York Auto Show and we saw Cadillac station wagons there. This would have been 1969 or 1970. I may have seen this car brand new. There were several of them there. -at the time we thought a Cadillac station wagon was kind of a wild idea. Suffice it to say, they looked a lot like the last ride most of us will ever take! (-and someone ELSE will be driving!) Of course in our times Cadillacs include all wheel drive light trucks (Even if we call them "sport utility vehicles"!). I have seen with my own eyes a vehicle with a Cadillac crest on the grille and a snowplow mounted up front! They make the idea of a Cadillac wagon seem kind of tame!

My father, Jim Stephenson, is probably who built that car, but it wasn't GM he worked for. The ones he built were made in Detroit though and sold at dealerships if I recall correctly. I was only 10 years old in 1969 when he moved to Detroit to build custom Cadillac Station Wagons there and I didn't live with him then but my older brother, Jim Jr., did live with him there for awhile when he was making those. They only made them for about a year though because he moved to LA to run George Barris's shop around late `70 - mid `71 and I moved to Hollywood to live with him in the Summer of `73 and went to work there too. I never saw one of them myself though, so I can't say for sure if that is one of those he built, but I can say the odds are pretty good it is.

I know it's Cadillac, but look closely at all the pillars: A [Windshield] through D [Tailgate] and you'll see that all of them are directly from [styling] from the Buick Estate Wagon. I recognize them because I owned a 1971 Buick Estate Wagon. Which would make sense since they would be basically the same primary body, with only the front, fenders and rear being dramatically different.

@smf2072 Жыл бұрын

Sounds like your '71 Buick took many of the styling ques directly from the '70 Cadillac Fleetwood Astro Wagon...which would make sense because 1970 came before 1971. In addition, Cadillac was usually the brand that received all the latest & greatest, in design trends, safety equipment, amenities & technology from GM, before they passed it on to the other brands, & eventually becoming standard equipment across the board.

However the Buick Estate Wagon was a standard dealer lot mass production run this eta...where the Caddy wagons were special coach fitter runs for ambulances, hearse and these special customer deliveries.

Buick was the full run production line for that cargo bed area already when this one was put together. If there are earlier Caddies...then that might reverse a best guess...but my current guess is the part came from the Buick division as it is not an integrated style to the caddy tail, but blended in.
