The Series 60 was the brainchild of new Cadillac manager, Nicholas Dreystadt.
The Fleetwood Brougham continued to use the RWD platform, (which was redesignated as "D-body" for 1985) through 1986. As had been the case since the 1977 model year, there were little more than trim differences between the Fleetwood and the DeVille.
