Santa Traded In His Sled For A Cadillac

Just wanted to catch up on a few member updates that I received over the last few weeks. The first one made me smile from Norm and Janette up in Ontario. “Beautiful day here in Ontario today and I backed the “Red Devil  (le)” out of the garage for a quick photo.    No Reindeer here—just lots of horses under the hood” Thanks Norm and Janette!

Our second member update comes from George from PA.

Cadillac Club Store

For years I have had a few links to things like part stores and places to get wax for your Cadillac but more and more Cadillac owners are asking me to find them things. With this in mind I will be making a store for everything Cadillac.  Lately when I get contacted by stores with Cadillac parts or merchandise I tell them I don’t sell to the club members. What I have figured out lately is I am doing our members a big dis-service. We have a large club and I can get discounts from these retailers and pass it on. Currently we get discounts from Rockauto. You can find the latest ones from them in our Cadillac parts forum. I gave them their own section on the forum and they give us discounts. It is a win-win

After getting numerous emails about Center caps I made a page for them. This cut down on the emails I get and they give me back 8% of whatever is purchased. While it isn’t breaking the bank it does help with paying for web hosting for the site. I just had to double up on that so any little bit helps. Expect to see the store pop up on the site over the next several weeks.
