Anyone know what ever happened to Johnny Cash's 1985 Fleetwood after it got auctioned off at Barrett Jackson a couple of years ago? This is not the Cadillac they assembled for the video to "One Piece at a Time", but rather his own car.

I didn't know about the 85 but a 75 or 76 Fleetwood Brougham of his was on eBay several years ago, it was all black.

I saw a all black 1975 or 76 fleetwood sell at Barret-Jackson a few years ago. Never saw anything on a newer Cadillac that belonged to him.

Thank you so much for the information! I did check out the site, and will now be looking for a 2010 event. Interestingly, I actually live near Toronto, Ontario, so the car is in fact almost in my backyard.  Thanks again!

 Yes, that is where the car is, and I have seen it when I have attended that show.

 It is indeed a great show, and really worth while going to if you can get there. It really is an extravaganza. Steve Plunkett has amassed an incredible collection of Cadillacs, including one off and 1 of a very few 1930's V-16's. He has just built a new building, the Coach House, which replicates the ballroom of the Waldorf Astoria in the 30's. It's a must see.

 I will be following any new updates on the show and post them here.

 Thank you very much! I really enjoyed that. I'm going to post the link on the Cadillac in Southern Ontario site.

 I'll look forward to seeing you there as well. Just tell me you're the guy that posted the Car Crazy clip.

 I am planning a display of the last generation Fleetwoods, 1993-96. Plus there will likely be other Cadillacs from within my group. You will likely find me there. I have spoken to Steve about the display, and he has given it his blessing.

 Or log onto the Fleetwood site:
