This 1940 Cadillac and La Salle Shop Manual Supplement is a high-quality, PRINT reproduction of the original equipment manufacturer's (OEM) shop manual, which was written and published by Cadillac Motor Car Division back when these classic beauties were brand new. When it comes time for adjustments and repairs, this is the guide you're going to want to have in hand. In 1940, Cadillac continued to add to their long standing reputation for providing luxurious and innovative automobiles. La Salle was closing out their rich history. Whichever of these stylish marques you own, this guide will help to get and keep it in tip top shape. Do you need frame dimensions? It has them. How about instructions for replacing axle shaft oil seals? That's in here too, plus much more.
NOTE: This 1940 Cadillac and La Salle shop manual supplement is just that...a SUPPLEMENT! It is designed to be used in conjunction with the 1939 Cadillac, La Salle shop manual, which can be found by clicking here...1939 Cadillac, La Salle Shop Manual.
