1977 Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham, a recent addition to my collection.

221 inches bumper to bumper, 425ci Cadillac big block V8 fuelled by a standard Rochester Quadrajet and coupled to a TH400 3 speed auto. Floats like a cloud.

Oh, for real. Despite being relatively "choked" by emissions compared to its pre-1972 472 ancestor, this thing will gallop right up to highway speeds without a care in the world.

I'm really glad it's the old cast iron Cadillac big block and not the HT series engines that all the 80's cadillacs got. That engine was a hot slow ugly mess.
