The ’54 Cadillac was a major body style change from the 1953 and represented a physical change as well. The wheelbase was increased by 3 inches and the car sat lower on the road.
THIS IS A BIG CAR.
For several years this particular car often parked around and near Deboce Street in San Francisco. I have not seen it lately.
The car had many other features as indicated in this article.
Many appearance improvements marked the 1954 Cadillacs. They included
* a lower, sleeker body,
* a new cellular grille insert,
* inverted gull-wing front bumpers
* tapered dagmar style bumper guards.Round, jet-style dual exhaust outlets were incorporated into the vertical bumper extensions and the rear bumper was entirely redesigned.
