The restoration shop of choice for classic Cadillac owners

Classic Cadillac Restoration: Hemmings Motor News Story


Cadillac Parts & Restoration's team, formerly under FEN Enterprises, has developed a reputation as the go-to restorer of classic Cadillacs. But don't arrive at their new facility expecting just a run-of-the-mill restoration. That's not what they do. Their focus is on restoring older examples of America's premier luxury brand to better than new condition. It's exacting work, however, their team accepts nothing less.

Hemmings Motor News, long considered the "bible" of the collector car industry featured the CPR team in an article back in their FEN days. While the company name and location has changed, their commitment to excellence has not. Read the HMN Classic Car magazine article about their outstanding classic Cadillac restoration history.

Elsa Mauer Nicodemus of Cadillac Parts & Restoration

Here's a nice article by the Poughkeepsie Journal about Elsa Mauer Nicodemus, owner of Cadillac Parts & Restoration (CPR). Her renowned company had a very successful showing at the 2014 Cadillac & LaSalle Club Grand national meet. Three of her restored Cadillacs were entered for judging and all three won a First-Place award in their respective class.

In the business since 1984, Elsa Mauer Nicodemus has fought her way to the top of the male-dominated auto restoration. Her company, Cadillac Parts & Restoration is located in Poughkeepsie, NY. Her former company, FEN Enterprises, received international acclaim and shipped restored cars and parts across the world.

The "Cadillac Queen" - restoring the Standard of the World

Cadillac, the United States' premier luxury auto brand, came to be known as the Standard of the World. Innovation and grandiose design separated Cadillac from the rest.

Decades of Cadillacs have rolled out from dealer showrooms and into owners' driveways and limousine fleets. Over the years, fewer of these old cars from the early 1900s through the 60s and 70s remain. Today, the brand remains a popular classic that many seek to restore.

However, restoration of a classic Cadillac doesn't come cheap. In fact, due to limited production and scarcity of available parts, it can be quite expensive to restore one of these cars. Specific product knowledge is vital to a successful restoration and one such restorer is located in Poughkeepsie, NY. Elsa Mauer Nicodemus, owner of Cadillac Parts & Restoration, has not only been in the business since 1984 but remains at the very top of the male-dominated industry.

Her reputation has led to many press articles and one popular publication, Hudson Valley magazine, not only featured her company but also proclaimed her as the "Cadillac Queen." It's an enjoyable article. Read about the Cadillac restoration expert.
