Besides the Cadillacs, its great seeing the other cars and buildings of the different era's.  One has to wonder how the guy with the ford got in with  the Cadillacs.

Mark,
Bullseye!!!!!!   I grew up down the block from the Cadillac dealer in that last picture(LI,N.Y.) . They sold Used Cadillacs there up into the early 1980's.  The building is still there & as recently as last year it was still a used car lot.   I will try and get an "after" picture for a then and now  8) 

You blew me right out of my chair with this one!
Thanks ,
Lou

Yep this is what I was looking for, to show a couple of new pics I found.  These are Philadelphias photo archives.  I imagine most big cities have them also online.

In 1957, a corporation headed up by W.H. (Bill) Pierce opened an emergency and transfer ambulance service in Dallas called Ambulance Service Co. of Dallas.

In this picture, Gordon K. Allen, left, presents the keys to the new handsome fleet to Gordon Campbell, center, of Morticians Supply Co. of Dallas, who was the manager of the new ambulance service, while Ralph Muter, left, regional manager for Superior Coaches, looks on.

Gordon K. Allen moved his Superior Coach dealership into this new location at 3909 E. Overton Rd. in Dallas in the 1960s. The dealership moved across the street in the 1970s to 3910 E. Overton Rd, where it remains in 2008. The Chevrolet stationwagon ambulance at the first of the line was for Dudley M. Hughes Funeral Home of Dallas.

Gross Mortuary operated three black hearse / ambulance combinations as back-up ambulances in Hot Springs, Arkansas. Here a 1964 Cadillac combination is at the screne of a taxi - car collision on busy Central Avenue in 1964. Photo taken by commercial police photographer Bunny Dever.

When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that is the beginning of the end of any nation.
