I know it has been a while since our last update and I am sorry. Between updating the software, returning to Phoenix, and keeping up with my other websites it has been a struggle. I promise I will get back to a regular email schedule soon.
Our club has seen a recent uptick in members signing up. That is encouraging since we had been on a slight decline of late with older members passing away. Getting emails from their loved ones telling me to stop sending emails because the member has passed away is always tough. Sometimes it is strange that it is usually someone that doesn’t email me or leave comments they just like reading the site. I can’t tell you how many times I deleted someones email that has been with the group since near the beginning but had no interaction with me.
Cadillac Country Club T-Shirts
We now have t-shirts for the club. I am not sure why I didn’t have these made years ago but like they say better late than never. I was doing some work on a website for a t shirt company and they asked me if I needed t shirts for one of my sites and I had them make me up these.
I have to set up a shopping cart, which will be the next email but I wanted to give you a sneak preview. The front of the shirts are the same but when it comes to the back you have 2 choices. You can get one with a red Cadillac or a blue Cadillac. Our sizes are Medium, Large, XL, and I do have a limited amount of 2xl. I have to figure out shipping and stuff especially for international members. The cost will be around $20. You will have more info in the next newsletter. Below is a sample pic.

We have a huge list of Cadillacs that are being auctioned off on eBay. These are updated in almost real time. There are a wide variety of models and years. Our club gets a small percentage from eBay when a car is sold.

After a flat month in October, General Motors’ November 2014 sales increased 6.5 percent to 225,818 vehicles sold. While the story for months at GM had been the massive growth within the large truck segment, now small cars, pickups, and the Buick brand have caught up in pace. It was the best November for GMC since 2001, and the best for Buick since 2003.

Cadillac has announced the CT6 will be unveiled in April 2015 at the New York Auto Show. The CT6 will pave the way for a new naming system set to be implemented by Cadillac which promises to become a pure luxury brand and adopt a marketing strategy inspired from rivals such as BMW.

Vinney,
I just read an article in Motor Trend about the new ATS-V Cadillac. I know most of your readers are into the older Classic Cars. But it is nice to see GM/Cadillac working on new models like this to stay in the market place. I own a 2006 STS-V and a 2006 XLR-V. Both of these cars are great cars. GM needs to get back on the “leading edge” against their rivals like BMW, Mercedes, & Lexus.
Sincerely,
Dan Dixon
Hi Dan I agree the new Cadillac ATS-V looks like an amazing car. Most members here are not that interested in the new Cadillacs though. I started a sister site http://caddychat.com where I talk about the newer Cadillacs.
This newest Cadillac the CT6 sure looks like design of a Rolls-Phanton
In other news Dave Beveridge is in the hospital in his home town of Burlington, Ontario, Canada
Who really cares right?
Well I have drawn and painted some odd 20,000 T-shirts of cars, trucks and motorcycles
and one paid t-shirt of a 1958 Eldorado Brougam from a women in Nevada.
That’s it just one hand drawn and hand painted T-shirt of an older Cadillac.
I would have thought that more Cadillac owners would have grabbed this opportunity to have a piece of real art painting of their Cadillac on a T-shirt but nothing happen
So I’m in the hospital fighting a bone eatting disease in my feet and legs
And that opportunity to have a painting of the Cadillac on a T-shirt
Is up
I will no longer offer my work to the members of this group
Thank you
Hi Vinny,
I reentered the newsletter sit and there were some comments to read and it led me here. I like the new format, I hope all goes well with the change. I look forward to these newsletters and never fail to read them when they arrive. I hope you are recovered from Sandy.
