73 eldorado

[bill crosby]

Looking for info on my 73 Eldorado. I would to get a close up door photo of a '73 pace car, as I want to copy the lettering of a pace car for mine, even though it's red.
Also looking for the value of this car and some Cadillac car shows in Massachusetts or NE. Also if there are interior parts in red leather available and red carpe kits
Looking forward to drive my Caddy this Summer and any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Bill

Welcome to the Cadillac & La Salle Club Message Board.  If you are not already a member, I would strongly suggest that you join both the national club and your local region.  You will find it to be one of the best investments you have ever made.  You will find much helpful information in the Class 24A: 1973 Cadillac Eldorado Pace Car (second edition, 2005) $40 US ($50 US for non-CLC members) Authenticity Manual.  This manual can be purchased from the club.  To place an order for the 1973 Authenticity Manual please go to the first page of the club website.  On the left side of this page you will find a sidebar.  Click on the subject entitled Authentictiy Manual and the rest should be self explanatory.

Hi Bill Crosby,

Click on the link in my signature and you'll find a list of potential parts sources for everything you might need for your car. There is a guy who posts on this site who has built an archive of information on thew pace cars. Perhaps he will see your post. Ican't think of his name right now. Maybe do a google search.

The "expert" on the '73 Eldorado pace car in our club is Tim Paul, who is curator of the CLCMRC
museum.

Hopefully he'll see this post and reply to you.  If not, his E-Mail is in the "book" and I'm sure
he would help out.

I will be picking up trash tomorrow morning with Tim on Woodward Ave.   The Motor City Region adopted a section of that road in Pontiac, MI and tomorrow morning is "fun" day.  I will tell him to check the message board for this post.  Tim's 73 is very nice.

PS it is Tim Pawl

I don't get it? Pace cars were white. Why make a red one? It's only going to take away value from your car not add any.
But its your car so do what makes you happy.
You can buy reproduction pace car decal sets. The only problem would be they use red lettering. Maybe you could contact the vendor and ask to have them made in another color.

Anybody want to make a green bi-centeniel conv? How about a brown 53 vette?

Good thing you clarified the situation David.

Grab an issue of Hemmings Motor News to find listings of car shows in Massachusetts.   There is a very nice car show in Dedham Mass at the Endicott Estate every July.
