There is a now defunct web site, fleetwood75.net, a Dutch site, that had every page of Cadillac brochures from 1958 to 1975, and had production numbers and MSRP base and options prices for all these years.  It had all the engines from 58-75 as well, and some actual brochure scans as well. It was a great site. It was part of a web site dome by the cruise brothers, a car club in the Netherlands. That site had lots of great info.


I wonder if that site is out there somewhere still hosted under a different domain name.

Can someone check out this link? it's blocked by the netcops here:

www.cruisebrothers.nl/carfrm.htm

I'll check it when i get back to my quarters.

The link worked for me. However, it presented a long list of "club cars." I did not see the type of info you referenced.  However, I did not spend any time probing the site.

The cars scrolling by very fast on the bottom of the screen was making me dizzy!

I guess the old dutch site is long gone then... Too bad, it was a wealth of information.

As it turns out fleetwood75.net still exists (without the www.)  Somehow i found it and some pov-ray animations. The animations have nothing to do with Cadillac, but I remember links to them being on the old web site, so I wrote the admin of the domain name.

And a few days later he wrote me back!

He found a backup disk with all the old brochures and detailed info on the 1958-1975 Cadillacs! wow  ;D

He has it on a temp site:  http://dcl16.nl/cf/  is the site. Again, no www.

Take a look. He said he'd put it back on fleetwood75.net but that will take some time.

If you click on the overview page ( http://dcl16.nl/cf/cov.html ) you'll get a page with all the years and body types listed with links to each one.

What's also really useful is that he has production numbers by body type and MSRP for each body plus a list of all factory options for the years.  This was a godsend site back when i found it.
For example:  http://dcl16.nl/cf/cf69/cx69prc.htm  gives you 1969 prices,

while : http://dcl16.nl/cf/co00/co68.html  (off the overview page by clicking on the year) gives you production and specs for 1968s!

I really liked this site, and had printed it all out. Now I think i'll try to archive to PDFs while I'm bored out of my a$$ out here (when i have the time).

Many thanks the the site owner / admin Mr. Wouter Olivier, Netherlands  8)
