High Powered Cadillac Vehicles from our September Catalog

Our September catalog photo shoot featured some high performance Cadillac vehicles owned by a pair of our local customers.  It had been a few years since California Car Cover had some Cadillacs on the cover, so I was glad that the car owners and I were able to coordinate a photo shoot.

 

These Cadillac coupes might appear subtle at first glance, but they are producing over 1100 combined horsepower. Each vehicle has performance upgrades, but retain the luxury details that Cadillac has always been known for having.

 The 1949 Cadillac Coupe DeVille belongs to local customer Scott Fraser. The multi-year restoration includes a Morrison chassis, custom leather interior and a subtle roof chop. It is finished with deep black paint and large billet aluminum wheels.

 J.V. Enterprises handled the paint and bodywork on the Coupe DeVille.

 Underneath the motorized lift hood is a 502 cubic inch engine that puts over 55 horsepower. This large coupe can definitely get up and go on the highway.

The black leather interior wraps the dashboard and the extended center console.

 The CTS-V Coupe belongs to local customer and Hennessey Performance West Coast Sales Manager, Ken Goldman. The stock CTS-V Coupe has plenty of horsepower for most drivers, but Hennessey gave it even more upgrades.

 The HPE600 upgrades lowers the 0-60 time to 3.7 seconds. The HPE600 improves performance with a pulley upgrade and cold air intake. More information on the Hennessey upgrade can be viewed on their website.

 Our friends at Lloyd Mats made a custom set of floor mats for the CTS-V Coupe with the Cadillac script and emblem logos.

Big thanks to Scott and Ken for coming out to our photo shoot. We had a great time and hope that all of our customers enjoyed seeing some fine Cadillacs.

SEMA 2011 Photo Highlights

Now that's a mustache.

I spent a few days at the SEMA Show in Las Vegas this past week. It gives me a chance to meet customers, suppliers and interesting people who all share a passion for automobiles. California Car Cover has been into the car care industry since 1989, so we have a lot of customers at SEMA that have been with us since day 1. There was a lot to see and here are just some of my photos.

This Cadillac was very nice. It was built by Kindig-It Design out of Utah. We made a custom California Car Cover for this vehicle as it was unveiled at the SEMA show. It was built for Apolo Anton Ohno, who was the guest speaker at SEMA on Tuesday morning. Below are photos from the unveiling courtesy of Kindig-It Design.

Ford Proving Ground. The Cobra demonstration was nice, though I think my Ford Flex and I could really show people what the EcoBoost can do.

We also made a California Car Cover for the Ringbrothers 1970 Chevy Camaro that was unveiled at SEMA. It was displayed at the BASF booth. The vehicle attracted quite a bit of attention. Video of the unveiling can be seen here and is on our Flickr page too.
