1976 Cadillac Fleetwood talisman 4dr sedan

1976 Cadillac Fleetwood Talisman. One of the rarest of the rare big Cadillac automobiles from the final year before the downsized rear-wheel-drive platform. The Talisman options contained a very special interior with writing desk, and many appointments not offered in the lessor Cadillacs. This big luxury sedan has all the Cadillac luxury items as well including power steering power brakes, power windows, cold Air Conditioning, tilt steering wheel, cruise control, outside thermometer, illuminated entry, Guidematic, Twilight Sentinel, Security system, auto door locks, and is powered by Cadillac's electronically fuel injected 215 hp./ 500 ci. V8 engine, automatic transmission and more! This massive car weighs over 5,200 pounds and measures 233.7" long, on a 133" wheelbase. There were 24,500 Fleetwood Broughams built - but the Talisman option cost about the same as a new Chevrolet Vega when new in 1976 and is rare today with fewer than a thousand examples built in this, its final year in production.

The interior was upholstered in Medici Velour, an exclusive crushed velour fabric reserved for Cadillac's finest automobiles. The seats featured a shirred trim design inspired by fine European furniture. Padded upper door panel inserts, B-pillar trim, sail panels, and headliner were also covered in Medici Velour. Even the door pull assist straps featured Medici Velour inserts. Running between the seats are center consoles also covered in Medici Velour. The front console included an illuminated writing pad with pen and pencil, a lockable storage compartment for safekeeping of valuables, and an engraved nameplate featuring the owner's initials. The rear console features a handy storage bin, as well as a holder for a vanity mirror and other items that might be necessary while underway. Both consoles also serve as comforting center arm rests.
