NUMBER OF OPTIONS
To list the 205 upholstery and new front seat
options with greater clarity, the trim chart has
been expanded to two pages. Page 4 lists the
cloth fabrics (and Calais vinyl). The next page
shows the leather options of which there are
100 combinations.
OSTRICH ANP SIERRA GRAIN LEATHER
Ostrich grain leather has an Ostrich skin
pattern. Sierra is a smooth, natural grain with-
out any visible texture.
De Ville cars are upholstered in a com-
bination of the new Ostrich and Sierra grain
leathers. Fleetwood styles H, M and P are
trimmed with the Sierra grain only. Leather is
not available in the Calais series.
Net*: As a matter of information, the plastic
grain on the back of front seat back in the
Eldorado is called Madrid. On all others it is
Sierra grain.
ALL OPTIONS NOT AVAILABLE
You will note that some leather colors offered
on the Coupe de Ville, style J, are not available
on De Ville Sedans, style B and L.
There is a limitation upon the number of up-
holstery options that can bo handled on a pro-
duction basis. Therefore, certain seat options and
leather colors are not available in all body stylos.
The trims or seats that are not offered as
regular production options are those for which
the demand is limited, i.e., Dk. Green leather
in style L.
To prevent any sales loss due to unavail-
ability of an interior satisfactory to the custo-
mer, Cadillac has a Special Request order
program. Details are explained starting on
page 48.
DUAL COMPORT SEAT
Trim numbers suffixed with S have a new
divided front seat. This seat is divided at the
left of the center arm rest, so that approxi-
mately 40% of its width is for the driver and
60% for passengers resulting in room for three
occupants. A full center arm rest is attached
to the passenger section of back rest.
This type of front seat is:
Standard in the Brougham.
Optional in De Ville styles F, J, B and Fleet-
wood Sixty Special.
Not offered in Sedan de Ville style L, but
available on special request.
Not available in Eldorado or Calais.
(For additional seat and adjuster informa-
tion see pages 14 through 17.)
BUCKET SEATS
Strato type Bucket Seats in Black or Lt.
Flax leather are offered in the Eldorado only.
Bucket Seats are not available (even on a
special order) in any other body style.
As a matter of information, Recliners are not
available on any type of seat—bench or bucket,
"C" series or Eldorado. However, a semi-
reclining position may be created in a passen-
ger seat equipped with a 6-Way Adjuster by
tilting the back rest rearward and lowering rear
of cushion to its lowest point.
UPHOLSTERY FABRICS AND TRIM STYLES
Patterns of ornate cloths may be inspired by
various artifacts, ancient and antique designs,
Persian rugs, etc.
For example, the artist's conception for
De Ville Dardanelle cloth came from a set of
antique jewelled beads—or precisely, a single
bead.
The graceful form of the small bead was en-
larged many times and reproduced on cloth by
an intricately woven blend of high sheen and
satin finish yarns, resulting in an interesting
and beautiful fabric.
This information may be of interest as a con-
versation piece with customers.
Calais Fabrics
Decameron—Scrof/ Partem
A cloth fabric and an extra charge expanded
vinyl are the Calais upholstery options.
The cloth, called Decameron, is available in
six colors. It has an attractive scroll pattern,
repeating at 2 %".
