Cadillac Sabre Wheel Restoration

Among the more difficult parts to find for classic Cadillac owners is a solid set of Sabre wheels. One "show-quality" restored wheel will cost over $2,000 and even a rough but restorable set will cost a pretty penny.

Hemmings Motor News is known as the most reliable resource for classic car owners and a while back they published an article about the rare wheels and advice for their restoration. The course they turned to was the Cadillac restoration specialists of F.E.N. Enterprises, now operating under the Cadillac Parts & Restoration (CPR) banner.

CPR has been restoring classic Cadillacs since 1984 and has earned an international reputation as the best in the business. So, it was no surprise that Hemmings turned to them for expert knowledge.

If you're looking for a set of "Sabres" or just need them restored, Cadillac Parts & Restoration is the team to call. They've has the same telephone number for almost thirty years and can be reached at (845) 462-5959. They can also be found on the internet at www.cprforyourcar.com.

Completed 1959 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz Restoration Project

We've done many restorations of the iconic 1959 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz and that particular car has become a specialty of ours. Our latest is a stunning Argyle Blue Metallic example and the color just explodes in the bright sunlight.

This 1959 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz restoration project is the second time the car has been in our shop. We performed a full restoration of this car about twenty years ago. However, storm damage caused her return a couple of years ago and we're proud that the owner chose to bring her back to us.

Meet the Founder and President of Cadillac Parts & Restoration

From their days as FEN Enterprises, the Cadillac Parts & Restoration (CPR) team has developed a strong reputation within the classic car community and plenty of industry media outlets have taken notice.

Classic Car magazine, Hemmings Motor News and Old Cars Weekly are among the more prominent publications that have written articles about their restoration prowess. But its not just auto-related media that's taken note. Hudson Valley is a prominent culture and lifestyle magazine covering New York State's beautiful and historic Hudson Valley region.

Back when she ran FEN Enterprises, Elsa Mauer Nicodemus caught the attention of the Hudson Valley editors.  Of particular interest was her companies reputation for taking rusted relics and rebuilding them in to award-winning and museum-quality works of art.

They dispatched a writer and photographer to learn her story and the result was a beautifully-written article about her classic Cadillac restoration business.  They titled the article "The Cadillac Queen" and the moniker stuck.

Although years have passed since the publication and she now runs CPR, her reputation remains and she remains at the top of the male-dominated auto restoration industry.

Two 1960 Cadillac Eldorados delivered for restoration

On a Thursday in February, out of the blue we received a call from a loyal customer telling us to expect delivery of not one, but two Cadillac Eldorados that he was sending us for restoration. Sure enough, on the coldest day of the winter, a transport truck with one Eldorado Seville and one Eldorado Biarritz arrived at our restoration facility.

Each of these cars are mostly original and highly sought-after by classic car collectors. The Biarritz is an ultra-rare bucket model edition of which it is believed only 99 were produced.

We're looking forward to starting the 1960 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz restoration first and then we'll follow-up with the Seville. We're honored to play a role in preserving automotive history and we're even more honored that our loyal customers maintain the trust and confidence in CPR to keep sending us their treasured classic Cadillacs.

Cadillac Interior and Upholstery Restoration Services

The interior of your classic Cadillac is the final touch on a restoration and while the highly-polished paint and gleaming chrome will bring a smile to the face of an owner, the luxury is derived when seated inside of the car.

Newly restored dash components, carpeting along with newly upholstered leather seats and door panels are signature elements from America's premier luxury car manufacturer.

Moreso than most other car makes, the Cadillac interior is a more difficult job. Parts are harder to find and matching the color and grain pattern is crucial. With thirty years of specific Cadillac restoration experience, CPR's (formerly as FEN Enterprises) Cadillac interior and upholstery restorations can be found on some of the world's finest restored Cadillacs.

We have been building our reputation as the premier Cadillac restoration company for the past thirty years. Through dedication, competence and attention to detail we've built a large following and much of our work is returning customers and referrals.

They say that "word-of-mouth" is the best possible advertising and we couldn't agree more. Our reputation gets around and even the 'bible' of the collector car industry has taken notice. Hemmings Motor News Classic Car magazine published a feature article about our Cadillac restoration company (back when our team worked under FEN Enterprises). The writer did a fantastic job educating readers about our business and its long history.

It's not the first time that Hemmings has featured our team in its publications. They also turned to us for expert insight about restoration of the Cadillac Sabre wheel. These wheels are already extremely rare and they add great value to a classic Cadillac. Pristine examples are difficult to come by and careful restoration of these wheels is in high demand.
