73 W* i 3,-'" RUGGED WINDSHIELD FRAME The new Cadillac windshield is framed by steel box-type members at each side and by double steel box members across the top. This type construction provides exceptionally strong, rigid and safe support for the windshield and the all-steel Turret-Top. NEW BODY INSULATION Body sealing and insulation have been improved in the 1954 Cadillac. Cowl insulation includes insulating board, asphaltimpregnated paper and Fiberglas which forms an acoustical blanket located just behind the cowl fire-wall. This heavy blanket of material is positioned as shown below to protect 70 against external heat, cold, noise and drafts. Front compartment is insulated by five types of material against external heat, cold, noise and drafts. 1. FIBERGLAS 2. ASPHALT-IMPREGNATED PAPER 3. INSULATING BOARD 4. CARPET 5. JUTE PAD
In any climate where Cadillac owners may travel, the scientifically selected insulation used throughout the 1954 Cadillac body will help take winter's worst with a smile or will make the interior of Cadillac cars more comfortable in hot weather. A Fiberglas acoustical and insulation blanket and felt paper deadener are located on the inside of the Turret-Top on all Sedans and a lj^-inch Fiberglas pad with vinyl quilted cover is fastened under the engine hood on all models. The Cadillac engine has always been the most quiet in the industry ... and with the thick Fiberglas hood lining, only the slightest whisper may be heard even when the car is traveling fast along the highway. All other metal panels are insulated with various selected materials. The combined result of Cadillac body insulation methods is to make the Cadillac body interior quieter and more noise-free than ever before. New sealing around doors provides improved protection against dust, rain and drafts and, at the same time, provides softer and quieter door closing.
