Cadillac Auctions

Duke of Windsor’s Cadillac Up For Auction

By Vinny O'Hare

A rare Cadillac will be going over the auction block on November 21st by Sotheby’s. It is a 1941 Cadillac custom built for the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, the Cadillac is named “The Duchess”. It is expected to go for anywhere from $500,000 to 800,000. Personally I can see it going higher than that. Not bad considering it was $14,000 when it was originally purchased. It will be interesting to see what it goes for. There may even be a bidding war.

While browsing the Sotheby’s website I saw they just had an auction for a picture of Marilyn Monroe and a 1941 Cadillac. Very nice curves if I do say so myself. Wouldn’t mind doing a replica to this in a updated setting. All I need is a 1950’s Cadillac and a model. Going to add this to my to-do list. This picture sold for $11,250.

Grand National Video

When Karl told me last week that he couldn’t stay for the awards I figured there would be a video up online and sure enough there is.  It is in two parts, Thanks to Earle for sending it in. At the 47 minute mark of the second video you can hear Earles Cadillac getting named 1st place for his class.

They also have sessions from the event so if you missed any Subscribe to their channel and see them all.

Cadillacs at Barrett-Jackson Scottsdale 2013

By Vinny O'Hare

I just returned from the Barrett-Jackson auction where I watched the BatMobile sell for 4.2 million dollars. The energy in the room was amazing to say the least. We were way in the back and we couldn’t even see the car on the stage as there was too many people in our way and on the stage. I was lucky to meet Joe Fortuna who was working the Cadillac Club, Sonoran Region booth. Joe and I have been exchanging emails and it was nice to meet another Cadillac fan that reads our newsletter. Thanks for your hospitality Joe! It was my pleasure talking Cadillacs with you.

I just wanted to share some pictures with you that I took at the show. It was my first Barrett-Jackson auction and I was amazed at the size of it all. I was not expecting so many exhibitors, especially not in the car niche. There was mattress companies and handbags (which we bought one).

I was surprised that the car brands had new cars here. I don’t know why I wasn’t expecting it but I had to take a picture in front of the new Cadillac XTS.

Barrett-Jackson Auctions are Underway

By Vinny O'Hare

I have been watching the Barrett-Jackson auctions and there are some incredible bargains on the Cadillacs. It is being shown on the speed channel. The Cadillac that is getting all the buzz is a hearse that carried the body of JFK to Air Force 1.

Here is a list of the Cadillacs that are up for auction.

I hope you enjoy the show as much as me.
