DadillacOwner: "Big Daddy"
Vehicle: '90 Cadillac Brougham D'Elegance
City/State: Moreno Valley, California
Club: Legends C.C.
Engine/Drivetrain: The big new engine for '90 Cadillac models was the 5.7-liter V-8 and it's no surprise that that's what Big Daddy's running. Riverside Hot-Rods in Riverside, California, added some shine to the muscle with a serpentine belt system and aluminum pulleys. The stock 350 transmission was also rebuilt and fitted with a new shifter kit.
Body/Paint: The PPG Ice Blue finish was sprayed by "J&J" at Corona Body Customs in Corona, California, with pinstriping provided by Shot Callers in Riverside. Mobile muralist Alex, based in Hemet, California, brought Big Daddy's visions of beautiful women to life on the hood, trunk and lower body panels. All chrome plating was done by Jose at J&M Chrome in Riverside.
Interior: Miguel at Arlington Customs in Riverside reworked the Cadillac's plush interior with some embroidery, tweed and a new headliner.
Sound System: Big Daddy digs those phat beats, so he had Shawn at Hemet Customs do up Dadillac with an Alpine head unit, a pair of Audiobahn amplifiers, Clarion tweeters, Pioneer midrange speakers and JL Audio subwoofers. Four monitors mounted in the sunvisors and headrests let Big Daddy entertain his lucky passengers in style.
Setup: The most recent hydraulic setup was installed at Bristol Hydros in Santa Ana, California, and features four More Bounce pumps, "monster" and Delta dumps, aluminum blocks, 8-inch (front) and telescopic (rear) cylinders, 4-ton springs, 16 Trojan batteries and 10 switches. The marbleized frame was reinforced and boxed in, and the suspension was modified with laser-cut A-arms.
Tires: Remington
Wheels: 13x7 wires with murals and pinstriping
