Restoring the Standard of the World - Classic Cadillac Restoration


FEN Enterprises begins Cadillac Restoration Services

In 1984, FEN Enterprises began as a small mail-order Cadillac restoration supplier offering parts and project supplies our of a spare room in the business owners' Hudson Valley, NY home. Not long after, the business expanded into actual restoration work with the construction of a pole-barn on the same property.

"FEN" made their big splash in the classic Cadillac community with their 1955 Cadillac Eldorado

1955 Cadillac Eldorado - the restoration project that helped
make FEN Enterprises' name
restoration project. The brilliant red classic was dubbed "Bad Girl" due to the challenges presented to the restorers but the end result was a masterpiece. As their completed projects garnered top awards, word spread and the business outgrew the pole-barn and soon moved into a building that formerly housed a health and racquetball club.

The new facility allowed the family-owned business to satisfy the growing demand for their classic car services and business grew at a rapid pace.


"FEN's" Classic Cadillac Restoration Gains Media Attention

The automobile restoration industry is vast but its circles are small and it was inevitable that press and media outlets would begin to notice this small but mighty team of craftsmen. Among the publications that wrote about FEN Enterprises was the industry's most influential, Hemmings Motor News.

Nicknamed the "Bible of the Collector-Car Industry," Hemmings featured the "FEN" team in a fantastic article about their classic Cadillac restoration success titled Restoring the Standard of the World. The article garnered much publicity for the niche business and placed their name into international prominence.

Times and situations change, and with that, businesses evolve. Today, the "FEN" team operates out of a new restoration facility in Poughkeepsie, NY and works under the name Cadillac Parts & Restoration (CPR). Still conveniently located to both the New York metropolitan area and New England, their team continues to produce the world's finest examples of restored Cadillacs.

There can be no greater evidence of their continued commitment to excellence than their
showing at the 2017 Cadillac & LaSalle Club Grand National Meet where four of their restoration projects took home First Place awards in their respective classes.

Classic Cadillac owners interested in learning about CPR's restoration services can visit their website at www.cprforyourcar.com or give them a call at (845) 462-5959. They've had the same telephone number for about thirty years and would be glad to speak with prospective customers about their goals.
