If you check out the last page of the 1963/64 Cadillac Newsletter, you will see a higher res and fuller version of this neat picture. There is also the following details about the picture that was taken, Oct 1, 1963, the day before the 64 Cadillac hit the dealer showrooms:
“Cadillac Makes It’s 1964 Bow”

Photograph caption dated October 1, 1963 reads, "Cadillac, which reaches dealer showrooms Wednesday, has its new... look pointed by Alex Von, general manager of Casa de Cadillac, 14401 Ventura Blvd., Sherman Oaks. With Von is Roberta Astamendi, 'Miss Casa de Cadillac.' The 1964 car feature a new engine, a new turbo hydra-matic transmission in many of the new models, new colors inside and out and many other new and exciting features. Martin Pollard, president of Casa de Cadillac, invites the public to view the 'new Cadillac.'”

And here's the black and white version:

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed

Posted by SK on June 2, 2025 at 2:20pm 2 Comments

Many thanks,
