Their feature article focused on CPR's classic Cadillac restoration specialty work that has earned them great acclaim since entering the industry in 1984. It's an informative article and a great read.

Restoring Classic Cadillacs
Low production numbers of vintage Cadillacs of the 1950s and 1960s, particularly the high-end Eldorado models, make for a rare car. Add fifty or sixty years and you not only increase the rarity of these classics but you make for a much more difficult to restore vehicle.
With each passing year, fewer cars of that era exist. Rust and rot make for an ever increasing scarcity of parts and directly create a more extensive restoration effort. In order to attain the maximum return on restoration expense, the work must be done properly. Although there are literally thousands of restoration shops and body shops across the country, very few have the specific product knowledge to perform a correct rebuilding of these highly sought-after classic cars.
In business since 1984, the team from Cadillac Parts & Restoration has specialized in rebuilding the "Standard of the World" luxury automobile brand. Their track record includes the finest award-winning examples of restored Cadillacs along with an extensive list of fine daily and weekend drivers.
