1956 Cadillac Coupe de Ville for sale
Posted by Lars Schenk in Buy, Sell and Trade, Cadillac Owners on June 30th, 2009
I own this numbers matching 1956 Cadillac Coupe de Ville since 1991. I bought her as a straight, solid and rust free classic car. I’m first owner in Germany and have put many time, love, work and money into this beauty to bring her in even better condition. She will be “finished” this summer 2009. I put her up for sale now because I want to switch to a 1958 convertible.
I’ve created a 3 minute slideshow and put it on YouTube to draw some additional attention – hope you enjoy:
You can find photos at my flickr set and there are more than 400 detailed high resolution photos with descriptions and comments at the restoration set.
Cadillac Sabre wheels – will they fit on your model year?
Posted by Lars Schenk in Restoration, Parts, Sources & Dealers on April 20th, 2009
Sabre wheels were standard on Eldorados from 1955 to 1958 and optional on other models. These are not wheel covers, but actual wheels/rims. In my understanding sabre wheel are the successor for the spoke wheel rims that were used on eldos before 1955. Today they are highly desired amoung Cadillac collectors. They allow to add dignity to your classic cadillac (1955 to 1958) without to losing authenticity even if it’s not an eldo.
But watch out to buy the correct sabre wheels for your modell year. Read on for further information that lists the differences amount the production years. Read the rest of this entry »

Introducing: a New Guy from Modesto, CA
Posted by Dr. Dave in Cadillac Owners on September 24th, 2008
I signed up here long ago but never posted. I had the given password sent to me but had to redo it. I am sure I messed up somewhere! I will work to become adept at the mechanics of this site.
I would say that I am a preserver not necessarily a restorer. I have these year cars: 63, 66, 70, 75, 76, 77, 79, 80, 84. Yep, that is all of them.
I am also rebuilding a ‘51 engine. The heads have been repaired in the past and I would not mind finding some good ones, also looking for some 30 or 40 over pistons. I am in Modesto, CA.
Dr. Dave
