Cadillac's extra-long nine-passenger cars (Series 6700) were the only pillared four-door sedans in the line. Standard equipment was the same as on base 6300 models and Series 62 convertibles. Trimmings included a full-length lower beltline molding of a simple, but elegant design. Convertible top-look rooflines and windshields with forward "dog leg" style pillars were 1962 carry-overs seen exclusively on this line.

I. D. NUMBERS

  • Motor serial numbers took the same form used in 1962
    • the first pair of symbols changed to "63" to indicate 1963 model year
    • the next symbol was a letter to indicate the model as listed below
    • the next six numbers indicated the consecutive unit number beginning with 000001
  • The serial number was located at the front of the lefthand frame side bar
  • Motor serial numbers again matched and were found on the center lefthand side of the block above the oil pan
  • The alphabetical body identification code "C" was no longer used, since the short-deck Town Sedan was dropped from the 62 Series
  • However, the short-deck 6300 model, called the Sedan DeVille Park Avenue, was retained and used the same "D" body identification symbol
  • Rooflines on two-door hardtops were restyled, which brought a change in body style coding, but not in the alphabetical suffix
