Just bought a 1923 Cadillac 61!!
Where can I run the vin number to check out a little history on it. Also, where would the best place to get parts?

Congrats!  Do you have any photos to share? 

You can pay a fee to Allied Vaughn who manages Cadillac's records on behalf of GM.  This should provide you a copy of the original Factory / Dealer invoice of your car:

The GM Heritage Center hosts information for many years of Cadillacs dating back to 1903.  They have 175 pages of info for 1923:

You can also reach out to the Cadillac LaSalle Club Museum & Research Center if you need additional information.  There are at least 2 volunteers at the Dexter MI Reading Room every Thursday (10 am to 4 pm ET) to check their archives.  No one will be there next week due to the CLC Grand National in Penna.  You can contact them through the CLC MRC website:
