Under the pen name “Don Dale” I was the author of the Hudson Valley Magazine article with a picture of the Cadillac convertible driven by Mick Jagger to promote a Rolling Stone’s concert tour. This article came up when it was posted here. In fact, it contains several inadvertent errors, which as the writer I need to correct. The Cadillac convertible in fact in the picture was (and still is) owned by Frank Nicodemus, a fact I was unaware of at the time. Frank is in my view the country’s premier Cadillac restoration expert, with a shop in Wappingers Falls, New York, where the Mick Jagger-driven Cadillac is still on view. – Don Rosendale

It was Frank Nicodemus who attended the press conference and experienced the day. I would suggest your removing the HV mag link so as not to confuse RS fans.

When Mick Jagger was searching for a car to kick off the Rolling Stones’ Bridges to Babylon Tour in 1997, he chose one ofElsaFrank Nicodemus’s Cadillacs — a 1955 royal red Eldorado Biarritz. “It’s the most gorgeous car. It has a red and white
interior, the most beautiful wire wheels, and red caps to match. Everything has been flawlessly restored,” says Nicodemus, who snagged VIP press seats to watch the Stones drive her Caddy back and forth across the Brooklyn Bridge. “It was very cool. We got a signed poster of the car with all their autographs. Mick was very nice. But he was worried about stopping the car because it had no park on it, only neutral, so you had to pull up an emergency brake,”shehe says. “But he was so happy with the car, he got out with the biggest grin on his face.”
