Standard Catalog of Cadillac 1903-2004

I owned a 1938 Cadillac when I graduated from High School. It was in it. Great photos of this classic era of General Motors best.

The heart of the book is year by year descriptions of each model, powertrains, options, and features. Some historical facts are noted along the way by year, which adds some context to the vehicle descriptions. This is very much more a reference book than a "coffee-table" book, although this most recent edition is more polished, with full color photos and glossy pages. John Gunnell, a life-long automotive historian, is the automotive books editor for KP Books. The book is 10.7 x 8.3 x 1 inches and is paper bound, but I have not had any problems with my copies holding up to heavy use over time. This book has been updated about every 5 years. I have one that ended in 1990, one that ended in 2000, and this one, which ends with 2005. Hopefully we will see a new one out next year that stretches through 2010. If a person could subscribe to this series of updates, I would. I have purchased 3 editions of this book so far -- so mark me as a happy repeat customer. As a reference book, the Standard Catalog of Cadillac is not perfect. But it is tremendously useful if you are interested in the Cadillac marque at all. It is also an easy reference book to use, and well laid out. I recommend this book for any Cadillac library.

Loaded with facts and figures. Very handy refence guide with pictures. Questions about Cadillac? The answer is probably here. Recommended reading for any Cad-ophile!

it was the only book to have the knowledge and details for his 1938 caddy. he's got 417 of 475 made and needed specific details that made his car special.

This book has every specification on all the years and models of Cadillacs. It is an invaluable resource if you are looking for information on any Cadillac. It is especially useful if you buy a lot of them.
