The Decades network has been binge broadcasting The Rookies all weekend. I remember watching this as a kid with my dad. Today I caught glimpse of this 63 hearse in an episode.

Hi Kurt, to tell the truth it's not Elmshorn, it's Neuendorf where I come from. This is exact half the way between Elmshorn and Glückstadt. But there are houndreds of Neuendorf in Germany so I decided to say Elmshorn as there is only one in Germany. If you are ever here again you're welcome.

Food Cruise

A group of my car buddies & I go on a monthly food cruise, sometimes breakfast, lunch or dinner. Last Saturday we took a 40 mile cruise down country roads from Austin TX to Salado TX. We went to a shop there called City Garage that specializes in Lincolns & had lunch afterwards at a good burger joint in Salado. We've been lucky this winter with beautiful weather for the most part with just a few cold rainy days in between. Here's a little video I put together from the cruise. It's a…

Our local CLC chapter had their annual show at Covert Cadillac in Austin TX yesterday.
There is an interesting story on the 61 limo. A man wanted to purchase a car for some nuns. They reluctantly agreed but insisted that it be bare bones with no radio or air conditioning. When the 61 series 75 showed up of course even without a radio or a/c it was way too ostentatious. The nuns tried to return it to the dealer but they said they could not sell it because it didn't have a/c. So most…

I went to the annual Lincoln show in Salado TX on Saturday. Yes, I have friends on the dark side. LOL. I brought my 63 CDV of course. There was also a pristine 67 Eldo, & a 89 Allante in the spectator lot so Cadillac was well represented. On the way home we stopped at Hardtails Bar & Grill in Georgetown TX http://www.hardtailsbarandgrill.com/index.html and there crashing through the wall is a full sized front end from a 64…

Good morning! I am Matias Adrogue. I bought a 1964 Cadillac coupe de ville last year and am real close to the final restoration details! I call her “Jaws 64”. Pics will be posted soon. I need advise regarding a AC/heater. It came stock in the vehicle but it does not work. A mechanic gave me a bid of $1700 to replace and repair. I am ready to install a new system - Vintage Air or Old Air Products from Fort Worth Texas. I would greatly appreciate your thoughts. I read the great write…
