Four. Five. Six. Perhaps even more. For the typical Cadillac is so long-lived and so enduring in its charms that it serves a succession of fine families. This, of course, is the result of many great and unique motoring qualities--masterful engineering and design ... advanced, trend-setting styling... and superb craftsmanship. And it promises one of the greatest of all satisfac- tions in ownership of a Cadillac: the car's predictably high resale value. For a car with such lasting appeal is always in active demand in the market place. And if all this has been true of Cadillaes in the past --imagine how doubly true it will be of the mag- nificent 1963 "car of cars." For here is the greatest Cadillac of all time. Ex- traordinarily beautiful in its styling. Exceptionally thrilling in its performance. Wondrously gracious in its luxury. This is also the most popular Cadillac ever built-- attracting both owners and admirers in unprece- derited numbers. : : Visit your dealer soon to learn about the twelve 1963 models and for a close look at your favorite. It's a great year to let your family fall in love with a Cadillac! BSA VISIT YOUR LOCAL AUTHORIZED CADILLAC DEALER ONTARIO MOTOR SALES LTD. OSHAWA, ONT. 140 BOND ST. WEST, PHONE 725-6501
