FINZ Editor New Zealand

Greetings from The Cadillac La Salle Club of New Zealand (Inc)

Hello everyone. July is our Second month of winter and where I live we’ve had our fair share of rain (which was much needed after a very dry summer and autumn).
You will read that after a stellar run of some 28 Covid-19 free days, two infected people entered the country and what with another infected Kiwi landing in the country, we now have three! The infections have uncovered a number of short comings in the Government’s efforts to ‘stay CD-free’ and you can imagine the political shenanigans that have followed!

Meantime, I have been VERY lucky to put together another packed magazine for you all to read, in fact I was blessed with so many contributions from my ‘Cadillac Network of Members and friends’ I have had to shift these articles to the upcoming August issue!

So without further a-do, let me tell you a little about what’s in the July issue!

•   One VERY cool ’97 Eldo convertible, a special model that has been around the world and now living in Germany!
•   More great old cars in memory of Fred plus a ‘Tucker feature!’
•   Kiwis break free of Covid-19 and go cruising
•   One lovely LaSalle
•   Heard of a Cadillac Mirage Sport wagon?
•   Betty White’s Caddy
•   Lots of newsy snippets from around the globe
•   Another episode of our fabulous ‘Retro-re-run’ of the cartoon series, ‘Cardillac Arrest!’
•   The Editor provides a few links for you to read, enjoy and to make you smile!
•   The 4th of July Weekend is back! Details here PLUS info for you to book your 2020 NZ Cadillac Nationals to be held in a surfie town! Will a ‘Woodie’ be there or shall we have to drink them? (Kiwi humour)
•   And as always plenty of colour. 

Our thoughts are with all our fellow members world-wide who are still struggling with the Pandemic in their country. May you all be back to normal and better health soon?

My invitation is extended ->> Until the next month, if you are at a loose end at home, why not email me a story or some photos of the good times you had this past year so we can all share what you enjoyed. And if you are allowed too, go for a cruise, take a pic (even your Caddy on a deserted road or even in your driveway â€" maybe a great Kodak moment?), remembering to try and make them either ‘Large’ on your phone or 2+MB (no more than 5MB) on your camera (or cell phone), is always good!

Until next issue,

Yours sincerely
