GE 2006 – and finally even more pictures were contributed…
Posted by Lars Schenk in Meetings on September 4th, 2006
Mr. Rik Gruwez from Belgium (father of the Cadillac Mailing List) was the first one who uploaded pictures from the Grand European Cadillac Meeting on 1st to 3rd September. Enjoy his brilliant photos from the amazing meeting in Zeebrugge that was one of the largest Cadillac meetings ever held in Europe.
Tanja und Lars Schenk’s pictures were online now and you can read the picture story about our trip to GE 2006 in Belgium.
And here are the the long awaited pictures contributed by Dirk van Dorst. They are not chronological sorted yet but I’m sure you will enjoy them very much.
Luciano di Sabato from Spain contributed his pictures.
The Oskarssons from Sweden drove 3500 km and now they share their pictures with us. And back in the USA Mr. Yann Saunders (aka Mr. Cadillac) contributed his pictures.
Jan Ivan and his wife from Norway made the trip to Belgium and contributed their pictures here.
Update: Wolfgang Tauchert and Ulli Müller from Cadillac-Museum, Germany contributed their pictures on CD-ROM. I’ve uploaded them and you can watch them here.
If there were more participants out there and if you don’t know how to log in and upload your pictures, you may send your pictures by email to me: [email protected] and I’ll add them for you.
Last Update: Here is my video showing the opening speech from Mr. Dirk van Dorst. I hope you can understand his message:

Golden Oldies 2006
Posted by Lars Schenk in Meetings on July 28th, 2006
On 28th to 30th July 2006 Germany has celebrated its 17th “Golden Oldies Festival”. It’s the largest meeting of classic cars in Germany with many bands and a large side program. More than 70000 people joined the festival and let the good old times come alive for one weekend. For further infos about this amazing meeting check out the site: www.goldenoldies-wettenberg.de.
Back from the “Golden Oldies Festival” I have several hundred pictures with me. I’ve uploaded a hand picked “best of” collection into the Golden Oldies 2006 gallery.
I believe there were more Cadillacs and US classics present than last year, but the US classic cars are still exotic in Germany and of course German classic cars dominate the field. I had the opportunity to talk to some Cadillac owners and I even meet one member from the 1958 Cadillac Owner Association from the Netherlands.
Enjoy the photos and have a nice day.
Last but not least: A big thanks to our hosts Kathy Jo & Duplo. Kathy Jo joined the petticoat contest and won third place… Congratulation.
Cadillac Big Meet at Schloss Kremsegg, Kremsmünster, Austria, August 27th, 2006

The European Cadillac Meeting in Austria has been held in 2004 and 2005 with ever growing success, both in number and quality of the cars present – and this even despite the floods and landslides that Central Europe had to endure in August 2005.
Also the cruising tour on Saturday, the day before the meeting, was once again a big success, being fully booked already by early July… Read the rest of this entry »
The “how” and “why” of the European programme of the Cadillac La Salle Club.
Posted by Lars Schenk in Meetings on January 20th, 2006
The idea to unite the European CLC departments occurred during the Centennial in Detroit 2002. I was impressed by the quantity of Cadillac’s and by the quantity of their owners, all united in one place during the 100th birthday of “Cadillac”.
Everybody was pleased with such a great event. A chance to meet new people, new cars and to take spectacular pictures.
Everybody was wearing a badge with his name and country of origin.
I noticed that everybody was looking at the badges. “Where do you come from?” was the question you heard everywhere. Read the rest of this entry »
