Pro Car Cadillac’s at Mt Laurel Auto Show

By

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.

Cadillac needs a Restoration

By

1968 Cadillac Calais

This is not the way a Cadillac is suppose to spend its final days. Up near Seattle Washington “Bud O” a Cadillaccountryclub member let me know about this poor Cadillac that needs some love.

I hope there is someone out there that can make this 1968 Cadillac look like it once did. It looks like it needs a full restoration.

“At first glance, I thought this car had been underwater, what with it’s myriad water-based lifeforms clinging to its seals and all. Heck, there are even visible signs of green slime inside the windshield.”

See more or get in touch with the owner here.

On another note drinking and driving doesn’t mix

With July 4th right around the corner I don’t have to tell you that people will make the mistake of going to a BBQ and having drinks and then getting into their car and driving. This is a story that will just make you say HuH and she did it in a Cadillac which makes matters worse.

1950 Cadillac Deville Pictures

By

Sorry I havent been posting much lately. I took a trip out to Las Vegas where it seems that every other car I saw was a Cadillac. Besides doing some slot machines I was busy taking pictures.

I have had the honor of looking at some new pictures lately. William from California sent in some pics of his 1950 Cadillac Coupe Deville. She sure is a beauty.

You can see more pictures of her on the 1950 Cadillac pages https://www.cadillaccountryclub.com/1950-cadillac.html

It seems that more and more people have been contacting me lately with classic Cadillac questions. I don’t know the reason but I am glad that more people are restoring these Caddilacs back to their original form. It makes the site easier to work on when I have new people writing in.

On another note did anyone see the guy that drove his car from Chicago to New York on one tank of gas. He called his style of driving hypermiling or something like that. It was on the CBS early show. He claims that if you go slower and don’t use the brake as much you can save a lot of gas, but it causes you to get to your destination slower. Guess if you are not in a hurry it is a good thing. With the price of gas nowadays it can help save some money by trying it. You can see more here http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2008/05/19/earlyshow/main4107075.shtml
