Another stunning CPR restoration: 1950 Cadillac convertible

Cadillacs of the early-1950's marked the beginning of the tail-fin era and offered a sign of things to come later in that decade. Long, bulbous body panels began to take shape and chrome trim became even more prominent.

This 1950 Cadillac restoration was performed by the professionals of FEN Enterprises, now operating with Cadillac Parts & Restoration (CPR). This gorgeous and elegant classic Cadillac has won major awards at the prestigious Cadillac & LaSalle Club Grand National event and has provided its owner with many miles of top-down enjoyment.

Hemmings Article: Restoring the Standard of the World

"Standard of the World" wasn't just a clever marketing slogan. It was a mantra followed very closely by America's premier luxury auto manufacturer, Cadillac. From innovative featured to build quality, this arm of General Motors did indeed set the standard.

When it comes to restoring the classic Cadillacs of bygone decades, a small, family-owned company has become quite well-known in this specialized field. Launched in 1984 in Wappinger Falls, NY, FEN Enterprises grew quickly and developed an international reputation for producing the world's finest examples of restored Cadillacs.

It wasn't long before new outlets began to take notice. From local news media to classic car authorities to international news syndicates, much was written about FEN. One such classic car authority, Hemmings Motor News, wrote a feature article about their Cadillac restoration history. Titled "Restoring the Standard of the World," the story expanded their notoriety from the Cadillac community to the wider world of classic car enthusiasts.

Now known as Cadillac Parts & Restoration, they continue their tradition of excellence in their new Poughkeepsie, NY facility. Interested parties can visit them on the web at www.cprforyourcar.com. CPR can also be reached by calling 845-462-5959.

1958 Cadillac Eldorado Seville restoration

In 1956, Cadillac offered their top-of-the-line Eldorado model in a hardtop version. To differentiate the models, they gave the convertible version the "Biarritz" moniker and named the hardtop the "Seville". Each version offered luxury and styling not paralleled by other American luxury-car manufacturers and these models are now highly sought-after collectible cars.

The "Cadillac Specialists" of Cadillac Parts & Restoration (CPR) have restored many Eldorados and pictured below is an example of one of their award-winning projects. This 1958 Cadillac Eldorado Seville restoration has won national awards from the Antique Automobile Club of America and the Cadillac & LaSalle Club.

Restoration tips for the RARE Cadillac Sabre wheel

Quite possible the most desired accessory item for 1955-1958 Cadillac Eldorados is the "Sabre" wheel. Offered in either silver or gold anodizing, these wheel were constructed with an aluminum center. This new (at the time) and unique construction is also a big reason why the wheels are so sought after because that aluminum center didn't hold up well over the years leading many sets to be sscraapped and replaced with more traditionally-constructed wheels.

However, when classic Cadillacs of this era became more collectible, the desire for a set of Cadillac Sabre wheels increased. Finding and buying a pair of these wheels in rough condition will set you back a pretty penny. The restoration will likely cost more. However, when completed, they will add to the authenticity of your Eldorado as well as the value.

Cadillac Parts & Restoration (CPR) has not only restored many sets of Sabres, but put them on their restored Cadillacs that have won major national awards from the A.A.C.A. and Cadillac & LaSalle Club. Learn more about their Cadillac Sabre wheel restoration services and other offerings.
