Classic Cars and Coffee - 14 April 2024
The Cadillac and La Salle Club held their national meet in Perth April 2024. Cadillac owners from all across the country descended on Perth and put on a large display at Classic Cars and Coffee.
Flying the Cadillac flag
1953 Cadillac El Dorado. This car recently completed a lengthy restoration. This was the first year that US cars were offered in white as previous white pigments were not able to hold their colour.
1939 Cadillac Series 75 coupe
Magnificent chrome grill
1931 Cadillac Fleetwood
And as rare as one is, then there were two.
1947 Cadillac
1939 Cadillac Series 75
Austin 7
Ford Coupe
I've not seen this 1920s Fiat out at a show for a long time.
Front end of the 1946 Chevrolet Fleetline
Back end of the 1947 Chevrolet Fleetline.
Two rarities together - a pair of Panhard CT24s
These are rare cars anywhere outside of France but there are two in Perth
Post war Panhards are powered by a 700cc twin-cylinder boxer engine that is surprisingly powerful for such a small plant.
There was nowhere for me to park so I grabbed a spot on the grass.
