Hello ,
Was watching a old Movie last night ( Jumbo ) with jimmy Durante so i decided to look him up on the web and find out more about him . Up pops this great picture of his Beverly hills house with this awesome 1954 Cadillac Eldorado . Maybe other have some great old celebrities Cadillac's to share .

Tom Snyder (Tomorrow Show, Late Late Show, etc) was a Cadillac guy and owned a variety of new Cadillacs during the 1970s, 1980s, 1990s and 2000s. When he retired from The Late Late Show in 1999, David Letterman gave him a 1960 Cadillac Series 62 convertible. Snyder ended up selling the car a few years later ("too much upkeep") and replaced it with a new 2002 Ford Thunderbird.
I've got over 300 in my archives. Here are a few.
Ann Margret 1965 Cadillac.
John Wayne in a 1976 Cadillac Eldorado convertible. Cody, Wyoming, July 4th 1976 Bicentennial Parade.
Actor Bob Crane (Hogans Heros) and a 1960 Cadillac Coupe deVille.
Muhammad Ali Driving a 1964 Cadillac Deville convertible.
1962 Cadillac convertible and Jackie Gleason.
Cassius Clay (Muhammad Ali) in a 1960 Cadillac with a record player.
Great pictures!
Are any of these cars still around and owned by any members?

Here is my car show sign with Judy Garland.
She looks out of it in that picture.........
And, given her history, there may be reason she looks so ....

Wow , all the picture are very good . The one of Dolly is my Favorite . Her and the car just go together perfectly .
Q, I thought Clint liked Jags. Dave
i like looking at these vintage authentic Candid pictures of people and their Cadillacs . Some of the pictures are very interesting . I really liked Dolly with the 64 although that might of been staged it really told a story . Couldn't figure out if she was coming or going . I have added a few more . By the way i think the 3 young scouts at Ebbets field were infatuated with the interior of the 57 Biarritz , I think Marilyn was blocking their view .

RIP Hef…
who is that with Ann Margret in the 63/64 convert? Dave
The Ann Margaret picture is a 1961 Cadillac Convertible.

The bumpers were named after the American actress Dagmar. I have no idea why.

Bing Crosby's 1942-6719? Early pic taken during restoration. I had computer glitch and lost quite a few pictures, hopefully I can find more later.
A lot of pictures in Restoration forum.
Thin documentation but it was delivered to Reno Nevada in late 1941 and used as a car for his ranches in Northern Nevada. When the war started he donated it to the government and it was used during WW-II at Wendover military base. Sold in 1950 government auction and sat in the desert for decades becoming a habitat for many forms of wildlife. It came to me solid and running and I have been giving it a full overhaul. Painted to original colors and pretty authentic overhaul.
