Vinny O'Hare

Here is the rest of Ludo’s pictures of his Cadillacs that I told you about in our last newsletter. If you missed it you can see pictures of his 2001 Cadillac Eldorado ESC here.

Ludo was kind enough to send in some great pictures of each of his Cadillacs. He is over in Belgium and has driven all over the USA. This Cadillac had only 16000 miles and is a Diamond white exterior with saddle interior.

Update for Gmail Users of Our Cadillac Club

Gmail has been rolling out a new inbox with labels like “Promotions” and stuff. There is a chance that our emails will end up in this folder. I want you to add Vinny@cadillaccountryclub to your contact list and when you get an email from the club make sure it goes into your primary inbox. This is going to be a major pain for anyone using Gmail.

When you get an email from me, drag and drop the email into your “Primary” inbox.

Then, you’ll get an alert saying, “This conversation has been moved to “Primary.” Do this for future messages from vinny@cadillaccountryclub.com?” And click “YES!” Thanks everyone! BTW if you are using another email client like Yahoo or MSN you should add me to your contact list also so you get the emails delivered to your inbox and not your spam folder.

Route 66 Merchandise is Coming

Ever since I picked up a t-shirt and some other stuff on Route 66 I have been looking for places that sell Route 66 souvenirs. I realize that there are a lot of people all over the world that would love something from this historical route. In the next newsletter I will have links to some places. I already found a cool place for shirts.

Cadillac Grand National Meet

Today is the last day to register your Cadillac for the Cadillac LaSalle club Grand National Meet in Boston. I know that we will have at least one member there as Earle is bringing a Cadillac or two. I am sure Earle will take a few pictures for us. For more information Visit the New England Region Cadillac and LaSalle Club. I am sad that I won’t be making it this year. Hopefully you can make it and see all the beautiful Cadillacs.

A few weeks ago I got a email from Ludo who is Belgium. He has a few Cadillacs including this beautiful 2001 Cadillac Eldorado ESC. You will also see his 1992 Cadillac in the next newsletter. In the pictures you will see he has traveled all over the USA in his Cadillac. I love it. Here is his email. Welcome to the club Lugo!

Hi Vinny,

I live in Antwerp, Belgium and am a fervent US car enthusiast since more than 35 years. Over the years I have owned Chevy’s (Camaro’s, and Corvette), Pontiacs (Firebirds and Trans-Am), Buick GS, Mustang, and 3 Lincoln’s. I still have my ’78 Corvette Silver Anniversary, and one of the Lincolns, a ’79 Mark V in mint condition. I have traveled in your country for more than 35 years and bought all my cars in Western US, drove them to Florida or Georgia and shipped them from there to Belgium.

Getting older, I felt it was time to move on to Cadillac and bought a ’92 Eldorado ETC in 1994. I have loved this car from the day I bought it from a GM executive, who was active in the GM plant in Antwerp, and moved back to the US. Car had only 16000 miles and is a Diamond white exterior with saddle interior.

I have always owned a company car, so the Caddy came out of the garage only on Weekends, weather permitting. It is still in perfect condition and I hope to keep it so for many years to come. When a few years ago, I was visiting Las Vegas, I noticed an exceptional clean 2001 Eldorado ESC for sale, and couldn’t resist…. I had to take it with me. So since then I own 2 Eldorado’s, with no problems whatsoever, and I adore both of them.

Thanks Lugo for both joining the club and sending in your pictures of your beautiful Cadillac. You can see more about the 2001 Cadillacs here. To see more pictures from Lugo visit his 1992 Cadillac Eldorado ETC page.
