car nerd ◊ 2007-07-21 01:32	Actually the 1954 Cadillac had a wrap-around windshield as well.
DynaMike ◊ 2007-07-21 03:24	Yes, but only the Coupe DeVille and the Eldorado
Ray B. ◊ 2007-07-21 14:17	No. Every Caddy had a wraparound in 1954. And from the side trim you can see it's a 1954. Series 62 4 door sedan probably, I agree. -- Last edit: 2007-07-21 14:25:07

Although the '54 and '55 models shared the same wheel covers (seen here), ALL '55 models had three vertical hash marks on either side of the rear license plate holder. In addition, as "Ray B." says, ALL '54 models have the wraparound windshield (that kind of windshield appeared in 1953, but only on the bespoke Eldorado).
