The Cadillac LaSalle Club of Australia Victorian president Steve Ashman said the display would span more than a century of automotive history.
“We will have cars from 1912 all the way through to 2026, about 82 cars on display,” he said.
“Cadillacs are an American car that has been around since the early 1900s, around 1908, right through to the current day, still manufacturing now as 2027 electric vehicles.”
The event will attract enthusiasts from across the globe, with 195 registered attendees travelling from every Australian state, New Zealand, Germany, United States and the Netherlands from April 13 to 19.
“We have been sponsored by General Motors in Australia, which is General Motors United States and they are bringing three brand new, current model vehicles to the show on the Saturday,” Steve said.
The display highlights dramatic technological evolution in the automotive industry.
“One car is a veterans motor vehicle, with wooden wheels from 1912, all the way through to now in 2026, they are full electric vehicles with many modern improvements,” he said.
His personal 1954 Fleetwood Special demonstrates this advancement, featuring electric seats and windows that were revolutionary for the era.
Cars will be displayed at the MOVE museum in Shepparton from 10am to 3pm on April 14, followed by stops in Rochester, Colbinabbin Hotel and Tongala Vietnam memorial on Friday, April 17.
The main Show and Shine event runs from 9am to 3pm on Saturday, April 18 at the Port of Echuca.
