Door Hardware
The lubrication of the body hardware on the car is fully
as essential as the lubrication of chassis parts if it is to work
smoothly and silently. Directions for the lubrication of door
locks, hinges and striker plates every 1000 miles are included
on the lubrication chart. These directions should be followed
as faithfully as the rest of the chart.
Body Adjustments
Preventive service on the body at regular intervals will keep
the appearance of the car at its best and will eliminate more
extensive repairs at a later date. This service should include
body bolts, tie-down bolts, door adjustments and the operation
of window regulators.
Authorized Cadillac-La Salle service stations include the body
as well as chassis in the regular monthly or 1000 mile inspection
and quote flat rate prices for necessary body service. The neces-
sary work may be authorized by the owner at the time he has
chassis adjustments made and the car lubricated.

Each Cadillac car, when shipped, carries an engine number
which is also a serial number. This is the number to be used in
filling out license and insurance applications and in general
reference of the car. The engine number is stamped on the right
hand side of the crankcase near the water inlet.
The various units, such as the transmission, steering gear, etc.,
also carry unit assembly numbers. These are located as described
