A few months back I received an email from a guy named Earle who was going to a pro car show down in New Jersey. Since it was only a few hours away I figured I would just on a train and head on down but I guess I had the dates wrong as the show came and went without me being there.

I didn’t realize I missed the show until I got an email from Earle with pictures included. I was so bummed that I missed it,but thanks to Earle he made sure he took some pictures for us.

That is Earle standing next to his fine looking Cadillac. I really owe Earle for sending in all the pictures of his ride which can be seen on Earles page by clicking on the picture.

It is not often that we get such detailed pictures and a great story on how he became the owner. Thanks again Earle.

Now for the new Cadillac fans I have to say I am quite excited over the new Cadillac concept car he Converj. Although I am not a fan of the name the look and feel of the car is amazing. It has sleek lines and looks really fast although that is not what it is meant to be.  It is an electric car that is similiar to what Chevy has planned with the Chevy Volt except this one is in a much sleeker body style. I am hoping it moves from being a concept car to an actual production car. You can see more on Cadillac Converj.

As we are really in the need to break away from our oil dependancy in the USA this car could help us in a big way. Although the 40 mile range is not that big of a deal, think about the amount of times you just drive to the store and back. This could save a lot of gas that you purchase. Little step yes but a much needed one.

Well it has finally made its debut after doing many secret test on a secret test grounds but the new presidential limo has arrived.

A side view of the new Cadillac. At first glance it looks like all three Cadillacs are new but telling by the led headlights that flash. The other Cadillacs don’t have that feature as far as I can tell.

The front license plate says USA 1.

Just came back from Las Vegas and had quite a surprise when I went to the auto collections show at the Imperial Palace Casino. Sitting there just waiting for its picture to be taken was a red 1959 Cadillac that was custom built and even included what is considered the first to have a built in TV.

I will have some pictures up on the site asap but I just had to show you guys and gals what I have seen. There were 4 or 5 Cadillac’s there some have been there for a while but I took better quality pictures and even videos of each car.

I just saw the trailer for the new movie staring Beyonce Knowles that is coming out in December, you may be wondering what that has to do with Cadillac. Just bear with me for a second, the movie is called “Cadillac Records”.

Although the trailer is short there is a bunch of old Cadillacs in the movie. It looks like some late 1950’s Cadillac’s to be exact although it was hard to tell from the trailer. The basis of the movie is about musicians selling so many records you can afford a Cadillac. Since the movie is all about stars like Chuck Berry and Etta James the movie will be filled with Cadillacs from this era.

It will be worth going to see this movie just to see all the Cadillacs.

I am sure there will be a lot more interest in restoration of classic Cadillacs in the near future when the movie bring attention to what great cars these Cadillacs are.

In the next post I will have some more pictures of Cadillacs from the 1950’s as I am receiving a lot of picture request lately which is a good thing.

* On a side note I am looking for someone to take pictures at the Los Angeles auto show, If you are in the area and plan to attend please send me an email.

Well it took me a while but I finally got around to putting up the great pictures that were sent in by our friend Earle. They had a pro car show down in NJ and I was suppose to go but I had the dates mixed up.

Lucky for us Earle sent me some pics including one with his 1978 Cadillac flower car.

You can see them on the www.cadillaccountryclub.com homepage and the two pages Pro cars I made which are right under the pictures on the homepage.

Thanks Earle for sending us in these pictures and I promise I will see you at the show next year.
