I
just returned from the Cadillac BIG Meet -
Europes largest Cadillac
Meeting
where I am in the organization team
together with some friends. Its
held in Austria every last weekend in
August. This year we had the
sixth edition.Thanks to all
participants - the 2009 Cadillac BIG Meet
was a huge success once
again! 140 Cadillacs made it to the show
this year. As we celebrated the
59 Cadillacs 50th birthday, we managed to
get 17 of them parked
side by side. 9 of them were Eldorados,
ranging from 6 Biarritzes and
2 Sevilles to the super rare Eldorado
Brougham of 1959.Some of the
other highlights among all these beautiful
Cadillacs which made it to the
meeting- were a perfect 57 Eldorado
Brougham and 2 1953 Eldorados and
many other awesome
Cadillacs.Visitors came
from Austria, Germany, Czech Republic,
Hungary, Belgium, Sweden,
Switzerland and Norway.While the
driving tour on saturday, which was limited
to 40 cars, had some terribly
rainy weather, Sunday, the day of the show
was just splendid.I
took my 1958 Seville to the show.
But
look for yourself and check the image
galleries with more than 800
pictures my
wife made this year.

- in the front there is my all-time
favorite car - the 1957 Eldorado Brougham.
This one was in perfect condition.

Last week the first parts I will need to
get my 1967 roadworthy arrived. Some more
are on their way to me from the USA. I
ordered them from Rockauto, Antique Auto
Battery, Coopers and Arizona Vintage Parts.
When everything finally arrives I will
start working on the Eldorado again.
The first few parts that arrived - belts,
filters, gaskets, caliper repair kits,
dryer, pitman arm, air filter and some
other stuff....
