Title: Source for Cadillac Data Book Downloads (1902 - 1974)
Post by: jdemerson on January 25, 2023, 03:46:15 PM
Some of us have wondered whether the Cadillac Data Books are still available for download. It turns out that they are.

https://www.gm.com/heritage/archive/vehicle-information-kits
 
They are the downloadable vehicle information kits from the Heritage Center. They don't have all the vehicles and years. Data books for other GM makes are available there.
 
This is the specific link for my 1952 Cadillac:

You can save it like any other PDF you open in a web browser.

Good stuff John. For those interested I have seen at least one Cadillac Data Book from the 1950s re-issued and apparently in hardcover, online. Was reasonably priced and from what I saw it appeared to be a facsimile reprint. For those wanting a hard copy scout around. I don't recall if it was "binder" style like an original, (may have been sewn and bound like a book), but looked nicely done. Don't know who issued or whether it is even licensed. Clay/Lexi

Cadillac King I have seen the same company selling 1953 - 1956 Cadillac Data Book reprints. So your 1954 model year is among those reproduced. There may be other years available as well. Clay/Lexi
