The 2024 Cadillac and LaSalle Club Grand National

[@cesargonzalez-wu2xy]

What a great way to spend time w/your Pop. Just beautiful cars, ❤️ those Cadillacs!

[@gregt8638]

I do appreciate how they've got them grouped by year. - rather than all different years mixed together. It makes viewing them all the better, and allows for a better view of how the cars changed & progressed thru the years.

[@jeremiahallyn4603]

James, thanks again for sharing your time at another Cadillac show with your Dad. I bet both of you have such a good time going to these and getting to see all these awesome and gorgeous classic cars 🙌😀

[@MarkWasylyshyn]

We enjoy each other’s company. Great fun!

[@ges2810]

I’m a Ford guy BUT I love Cadillacs. Always wanted to have one. It would have been great to be there in person at the show.

[@steves9905]

man that Calais with the plaid upholstery was amazing. That specific car is on my bucket list. I think the Eldo could have the plaid too.

[@lonwaslien104]

@@steves9905 My neighbor had an older model Calais with crank windows.

[@jamesfox2579]

Some incredibly beauuuutiful Cars!

[@McMullenCharlie]

Such an astute documentary. Read his reviews, but this shows what a great car guy this star is!

[@severinjohn]

The '75 Calais Coupe without a vinyl top was really interesting. This was the absolute cheapest Cadillac available in 1975. I'm wondering if this car was equipped with any options at all. It didn't have tilt, interval wipers, or Twilight Sentinal for sure. Morgan plaid cloth interior typified the fashion sensibiities of the 70's. And under 4K miles to boot! Amazing.

[@davidbolt5113]

16:44 the best is the Calais, plaid interior and no vinyl top.

[@P.Galore]

I loved the early 1960's Cadillac ad that said' "Life is just one Cadillac after another."

[@dawndelrocco2078]

Out of all the videos you made, this was the best because it gave the viewer an ability to see so many beautiful and rare Cadillacs! If I wasn't working that day, I would have entered my 1996 Sedan de Ville, with only 85, 000 miles.

[@lonwaslien104]

Great video at the Grand National. I was happy to see the Talisman and the rare entry level Calais coupe in such good condition (16:00)which was parked in FL. Cool interior and sans vinyl roof👍👍. Thanks James!

[@514dmiller]

Why did he keep calling it a “Tails Man” instead of Talisman? Made me crazy 😂

[@dalehampton4554]

What a fantastic collection of Cadillacs, James! Thanks for sharing and covering so many of those amazing Cadillacs!

[@kendalson7100]

Like the black XLR. Looks like lots of fun, hope you enjoyed the show.

[@JustMe-xc9pp]

What a great job, James! Thank you so much. And we have so much in common by loving Cadillacs.

[@DrkKnight67]

Thank you so much for this posting - my father was a field engineer and instructor for Cadillac from 1962-75, when he moved to GM Product Training and training management for the remainder of his career. Sadly, he passed in 2015, but I could hear him talking about each of those vehicles and sharing the knowledge just as you and your father were doing.

[@danabertolone2403]

My dad’s car is the second car he shows. It’s the LaSalle it’s a 1940 and he won first place in his class. My dad is known as the LaSalle guy. Thanks for posting.

[@247jimbo]

Wow- what a show- thanks for showing us James! LOVE that 64 wagon at 29:30! Too many favs to mention! Love how they are not parked side by side and have lots of space! They really had everything! Really well done show!!!

[@alljerseysmatter.]

Amazing cars

[@70Eldo]

Nice work once again James! We will promote this video far and wide ! Let me know when you're ready to launch the Fall Festival video, i have some more info and images/ content for you .

[@gmclubapparel]

That was from Dave L BTW - 😀

[@snuffa.luffagus7588]

❤❤❤❤ I love that white 1959 Fleetwood and all those V16s

[@NanaSuze77]

LOTS of cool old cars!

[@RossPayne]

James, what a great video of a great car show! I liked all the Cadillacs, but especially the 1970s vintage Fleetwoods.

[@MDavidG1]

A great video of an outstanding group of Cadillac and LaSalle cars. Thanks for making the effort to put this video together!

[@whitsundaydreaming]

10:35 “Tailsman” lol. Talisman😂. It’s one of my dream cars but so hard to find.

[@thomasdeveno5646]

Thanks for showing those of us that could not make it to the show. Great video

[@everettbeebee2283]

Your auto vocabulary is exquisite!

[@gene978]

Hey Thank You James. What a Great Time!

[@wmalden]

GM called a glass moonroof(sunroofs are steel) an “Astroroof”.

[@cardo1111]

Some beautiful pieces of history there. Gettysburg is a great place to visit and hallowed ground.

[@terryllenhart5331]

Absolutely stunning cars! Thanks James.

[@liamrobb]

An excellent overview of the meet James! Almost as good as being there. I have enjoyed your content since you started, and it gets better and better. The Eldorado Brougham, the Talisman and the Calais coupe with Morgan plaid interior are my favorites. So great to see all of these fascinating vehicles in one sitting.

[@straightchad8059]

23:00 my favorite

[@joecutro7318]

This was such a great video, thank you! I really appreciate your review style. The love you have for these cars and the stories behind them really shines through. I particularly enjoyed the red '57 coupe story where the salesperson and the buyer were reunited after decades. After watching several of your reviews, this one clinched 😊the deal, I'm subscribed now. 😊👍🏼

[@michaelbarrett1783]

Just proud of you two!..Totally understand your situation is difficult.... So impressed with all your efforts and accomplishments...I'm in awe of all you have done together!.. michael

[@MarkWasylyshyn]

@@michaelbarrett1783 thanks!

[@martinwagner9610]

Boy, I,d sure love to be there to see this collection of amazing automobiles! I'm on my ninth Cadillac. To me, there's no other brand I'd like to own.

[@johngage1397]

thanks for the video, I'd give anything to be able to go to a car show again with my dad .

[@thomasdeveno5646]

Loved seeing those Cadillac station wagons.

[@tasaab]

First time watching one of your videos. Great coverage, your inquiry and facts were spot on. Everything you said was accurate. I can’t tell you how many of these videos I have watched by “younger” folks just spewing inaccuracies about the cars they are covering. If you want to take it up a notch, I would have loved to have seen you covering which cars had rare options and which did not. Example, the Flower car had the super rare radio delete plate (on a Cadillac, no radio!). Some of the early ‘70s cars had relatively rare passenger rear view mirrors, etc. That plaid interior Calais basically was a stripper, barely any options at all, no cruise, no tilt, no delay wiper, no sentinel/auto dimmer, manual bench seat. The only other thing was that I have definitely seen as Talisman in leather before, so there are some out there (I know that wasn’t your commentary). It’s that level of commentary that brings something elevated. Just my opinion, this video was a great job nonetheless.

[@MarkWasylyshyn]

@@tasaab where did you see a Talisman with leather? What year and colors?

[@tasaab]

@@MarkWasylyshyn A 1974 in Tan. Easily googled if you search “Cadillac Talisman Leather”

[@indianasunsets5738]

Amazing cars!

[@markharkey2480]

Great job James!❤

@ 17:20 Those two white Cadillac's are the definition of the 1980s.. I remember those when new and remember them being everywhere.. I loved the drive and feel of those 80s Eldorados and drove one, but they were easy to steal and I had mine stolen and found wrecked... It was lost to the junkyard

[@johnsomers8269]

James, looks like you can grow a fantastic beard! What a great collection of land yachts!

[@johnpezzullo9644]

AWESOME Show, Absolutely Beautiful Cadillacs. !!! Wish they would have a show like this in my area. Thanks for bringing to us James. !!!

Wonderful review! I love your presentation!

Thanks for The Show made my day Great Job keep Going and like your voice Was A Fun Interesting Show

[@jeffreyerickson6766]

James great you're a Caddy kind of guy: classy and mint.

[@michaelbarrett1783]

Thank you for this video!.. Your nice to look at as well,!...michael

[@yogi3547]

My thoughts, exactly

[@williamlovely450]

love you

[@morrisabrams2116]

Thank you, that was so cool!!!

[@64Laurentian]

Very well done video! I have to point out that you overlooked one of the most unique first generation Sevilles. I could see it in the background in one of the segments. It is a 1978 Seville Elegante in black and silver, a very special, low production car.

[@donaldhenderson3495]

Thank you, James, for another awesome video.

[@nickolaslewis1560]

Good show!

[@dennisjones7996]

GREAT VID jAMES, LOVE TO ATTEND ONE DAY

[@HypocriticYT]

I’d love to attend the show just once. First car was a 53 coupe, no power anything.

[@lanebooker2476]

I think the box you were mentioning with the cubbie was actually the heater. They had a door you opened up to let the heat in

[@dennismorgan3589]

Im a member a great club!!

[@alljerseysmatter.]

Where do they get the parts to fix these old schools ??

[@ericvonha7694]

Skipped all of the '79-85 era Eldorados. There were a lot of winning cars in that class and a preservation example.

[@wmalden]

It’s ’TAL-liss-man” - not “tails-man.😜

[@jeffsmith846]

I hope Adam Wade watches this video to see the 1975 Calais with the funky interior.

[@AmyHamrick-u2x]

My Father drove a 66 Sedande ville in lt blue 500 V8, Alan’s Yangtze for sure,,

[@Andrew-bb3lc]

The 1966 Cadillacs had a 429 cubic inch V8 engine.

@ 32:55 I wish you would have shown that Ambulance in the background

[@TomSnyder-gx5ru]

Love your videos but I wish you would've taken more time to show some of the other Cadillacs there, looks like you skipped over some real beauties - plus viewing the interiors through the side glass was difficult due to the glare reflecting off of the glass. I know I'll be the odd one out here but out of all the Cadillacs you showed I would drive out of there in that '71 Eldorado (8:40) in a heartbeat.

[@markcollins457]

I still think Cadillac/GM dropped the ball on the Seville. The first model was a striking car and the STS had the chance to be a milestone but GM being GM kicked it to the curb.

[@johnrusso4068]

I did not know they had one of these I have a 1970 Cadillac and I live in the Gallatin Tennessee area I have thought about starting a Cadillac group around my location because in the Nashville area there is no Cadillac group I already have like 10 people that want to start it up with me but now I know they have a bigger group than this

[@WheelsChrome]

You don't need an American passport to go everywhere. A Dutch passport will suffice too. I read that we Dutch can even go to more countries than an American. 190 vs 184 countries.

[@rockinthedadlife2244]

“Talisman” not Tailsman. 😢

[@paulk9985]

Checkerboard? It's called plaid.

[@okc557]

Stud

[@DirkHarvuot]

Great video on the Cadillac show. The word talisman is pronounced 'tal-es-men,' not 'tales-men.' A talisman is a religious and or good luck symbol. Google it, please! Hard to believe that owner's don't even know what they have!

[@allenwayne2033]

what the hell is the deal with a car show with so many cars with the windows up??

[@MitchGrooms]

WHY do folks leave the windows up at a car show? why. Come on man!!

[@severinjohn]

Bugs, insects, airborne debris? Peoples' needs to touch everything? Also the clumsy show attendee leaning in with a beverage or sloppy hot dog, and...oops.

[@59cdv]

People will stick their heads inside resulting in scratched paint from jewelry. Had it happen.

[@MitchGrooms]

@@59cdv leave your car home than.

[@59cdv]

@@MitchGrooms I have a better idea: Why don't you let exhibitors decide what works best for them. Their money, their car. By the way, windows are typically raised at most national judged shows because glass can't be judged with the windows rolled down.

[@yogi3547]

When I take my 1956 Sedan De Ville to shows, Not only are the windows open, I encourage people to sit inside to get the "feel"of the car. The kids love the experience! Why woulkdn't they?
