Two Cadillac factory books bound together. The first is the Shop Manual for 1942, covering the 42-61, 62, 63, 60S, 67 and 75 series and the 75 commercial chassis with the 346 cubic inch V-8. It is arranged by the General Motors parts grouping, each group with a description, numbered service notes and illustrations, and ends with specifications, special tools and an index. The second is the 1946 Shop Manual Supplement for the 46-61, 62, 60S and 75 series. It covers only what changed in a way that affects service and refers back to the 1942 manual for everything else, so it is short except for Hydra-Matic Drive and specifications.
Pages 1–5 (5 pages)
