Restorer32 Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 I have a series of photos taken in 1939 of a 1904 1 cylinder Cadillac which was being used in a movie produced for Prestone Antifreeze called "Rip Van Winkle Jr". At the time the car was owned by a Robert J Bohaty of Centerport, LI, New York. If anyone has any info as to the ultimate fate of this car, or of Mr Bohaty for that matter, please contact me. I would be happy to make these photos available to the current owner. It's a long shot I know but stranger things have happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1937hd45 Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 Could it be this one? I took this shot in 1967 at the HCCA Meet here in Ridgefield. Last time I saw the car it was in a New car dealership on long Island. won an AACA Junior at the time , back then those ovals were a rare sight.

1937hd45 Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 NOT an '04, it's a 1906 or 1907. <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve_Mack_CT Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Restorer, you may want to touch base with this guy in RI, I don't know him personally, but he is well known up this way with very early Cadillacs (Classics also) - http://www.classiccars.ws/index.htmlHe may be able to connect you with this vehicle now. PS - Driver of the roadster looks like a wild & crazy guy! <img src="http://forums.aaca.org/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
