Cadillac measure of value for 1963
The following slides were almost destroyed.
So I decided to present it in black and white.
Some of the broken slides were restored
in Photoshop.
Unfortunately, the last third of the film
strip was too badly damaged and could
no longer be digitized or restored.
This was the first Salescraft release for 1963.

dry ice blasting of my 1964 Cadillac Fleetwood Sixty Special
1963 & 1964 are some of the most beautiful Cadillac's ever built
The intrinsic values the speaker refers to are exactly the things Cadillac squandered in the 80s.
Thank you for your effort, and posting this video!
Beautiful
Dont convert your Caddy to R134A, its too warm.
In Europe R12 is not allowed. So there is no other option than converting to R134a.
This was high tech back in 1964, the year of my birth.
3:30 With the system first introduced for 1952, it's no surprise that it was still made with tubes this late, despite most GM car radios being all-transistor starting in 1964. I wonder when the GuideMatic was finally converted to a solid state design; I had one in my '68 Fleetwood, but I never had to work on it. This one must have used space-charge tubes to work directly on 12 volts.
That's a lot of claptrap just to avoid having to turn the lights on or off. A lot to go wrong. I'd bet if customers had been shown this clip they'd have avoided these options.
Love these service department films, thanks!
The source material is better prepared than anything I see in our era. I am Cadillac. All the way.
Thank you.
Great effort, and very interesting. My parents had a 63 Caddy until they traded it for an 81, and they never had any trouble with it. Can’t say that about the piece of crap Licks-ass I bought.
☘️🍀Excellant video, amazing technology for GM's Cadillac Division in 1963-64 production years. First's in the industry no dought.🌿🎊🚘
Those strings really sold me
Love these old slideshow sales films. This poor strip certainly has seen better days but i am glad to see it saved regardless.
This is so sleazy.
If you’re thinking sleazy, you must be thinking of Turd-ota.
thats a stupid comment, Cadillac pioneering almost everything in automotive engineering..what did toyota pioneer? nothing....
It would be cool to build a modern version of this system using modern parts. Get longer reliability in a smaller, cheaper package and replacement parts would be easier to get when it does fail
Reliable technology? In this 21st century? Dream on, Arrow Smith....
My 18 Chevy truck has it.
Early 2000s Buick Centurys and LeSabres have delayed headlight shutoff. And I think automatic headlights.
Let's all go to the Cadillac dealer service department. Back to 1962 please......
I have never cared for this type of thing. I prefer to adjust the temperature, fan speed and mode of operation myself. Unfortunately today, this is the only thing that you can buy unless you purchase a low end vehicle.
I can sympathize. I like the automatic temp piece, but warm *only* comes out at feet, and cold *only* comes out of dash vents. Fortunately, one can add switches to override it and discreetly hide them in an ash tray.
I didn't think the photo electric cell was around until the 70's.
The Autronic Eye photocell high beam control was first offered as an option on 1952 Cadillacs and Oldsmobiles.
I love the 1950s announcer voice ! I wonder if any of those guys can still be hired today for modern projects?
I'd say they've all been dead for quite some time
Unfortunately, that style of speaking and vocal expression has been lost with time.
Agreed. People don’t annunciate properly anymore. Smoking is not as common either. That’s where a lot of the voice quality came from. Not advocating smoking, but you can definitely hear it.
Now I know why the 'early / late' knob always felt strange to me. It's just a shade for the photocell, built into the knob; not an electric switch or rheostat. I always wondered how the knob was working on my 64 ! It felt broken, because I could detect no mechanical switch action in the twisting of the knob. But the sentinel and auto dimming always worked properly. (which was happy since they usually broke on my later cadillacs). The 64 is the last metal dash car with all metal switches. My dad's first new cad was a 65 convert, because there was a shortage of used cars in NJ at the time. But the 65 made people respect him, as a 23 year old guy, with the most modern new cad ever seen. a 64 would have looked very old within a year, at a time when styling changed every 12 months. We are not used to that now.
Yup, back when car model years actually mattered haha. Now cars only refresh every 4 years or so, and then a new model usually 2 years following. Makes buying the newest model year not necessary if you're only worried about updates. My 89 Deville had this exact tech package, but it had the cheap 80s plastic dash. But it did still have a metal switchgear for the twilight sentinel sensitivity
Thanks for this !!!!! I've wanted this for years.
This is fantastic. Are these vids/slideshows available for other years such as 1966?
Yes, as I know...
The concepts for 1966 are the same. I also recommend Cadillac Tim's book available at www.cadillactim.com It helped me fix the AC in my 1966 and I'm not at mechanic at all. If I can do it, anyone can do it.
2:47 Cadillac obviously did NOT hire a “hand model” (yes, a real profession) to photograph this. Look at that nasty, dirty mechanic’s fingernail! Yecchh.
Today I bought a Cadi 64 coupe I am very happy
So, how do you like it so far? I'm about to see one tomorrow
This helped a lot. Thank you for posting. Would love to see more!
I bet the labor on that photo cell diagnostic job was expensive!
Please post more vids
Pablo Vasquez give me more of these and I’ll digitize it. Really hard to get. I have a Fleetwood, too.
Awesome, I have a 64 Cadillac fleetwood sixty special and I need lots of info due to restoring, THANKS A LOT, I just subscribed
Hi... I owned a 64 Coupe DeVille...years ago.....I have the original owners manual and accessory book with Cadillac Pouch for them.....would you like them ?
Felicidades Pablo, yo compre un 64 coupe el día de hoy en México saludos
@@MrTitan225 thank you for your offer. But I already have almost every ad, manual etc. you can get of the 1964 Cadillacs :)
I am constantly leaning something new about my car everyday. And I've had her almost 15 years, since 09/06/2005. I never knew the vents were suppose to face up, what a difference it makes ! Love ! Love ! Love ! this Video !
Joseph DiIaconi Same with my Fleetwood. You never stop learning. And I love this old lady more and more.
Wow thank you
Great video. On mine the AirCon is without function. This movie encourages me to get it run agin.
