I was just going through my pictures and I came across a 1906 Cadillac. I saw this at the Auto Collection show a few years back. I have been doing some research on it and I don’t know for sure if it is an actual 1906. Click on the picture for more details and more pictures including one of the sign that was in front of the car.

Restoring Al Capone’s 1927 Cadillac
Here is a video of a guy that is restoring Al Capone’s 1927 Cadillac.I found it very interesting. Will be waiting for his follow ups.
If you are located in the Oregon region you may want to become a member of the Horseless Carriage Club of America – Portland Region Group They have a bunch of classics and there was even a 1912 Cadillac spotted there. Looks like a bunch of fun.
Just saw a 1962 Cadillac Fleetwood for sale on craigslist for only $4000. It has 98,000 miles. click the link for more details.

Updates to the Cadillac Newsletter
There are a few things that I have to tell you about what is going on here. First off the next time you get this newsletter it may look a little different then in past. I am making it much wider to be able to get more pics and even more video on the site.
I have been holding off for too long on doing this because I have read that the newsletter service I use will send out many emails at once. I don’t want my loyal readers to think I am spamming them. If it does happen just know that it is a one time thing and please have some patience. They are old newsletters and maybe you will enjoy them.
Ok now on to some good stuff. Last week I sent out a newsletter with a video with a red 1959 Cadillac. You guys were not fooled at all. I received over 100 emails telling me that I was wrong about the year. For you people that emailed me I appreciate your enthusiasm that you actually took the time to write me and tell me. I really enjoy those emails. Anyway here is pictures to that famous 1959 Cadillac.
Speaking of pictures I got some cool pictures from Brian McKee who owns a 1993 Fleetwood “Limited Edition” You can see his ride on the 1993 Cadillac page. Thanks Brian for sending them in.
Once again I apologize if you receive multiple emails it is an upgrade that I probably cannot avoid. It will improve the newsletter 100% so its well worth deleting a few emails (if it even does happen)
