Hey Porter
You must be knowledgable enough to make your own Web site on restoring old caddies. I look at your photos with envy.

George,

There is enough talent and knowledge here to turn any Cadillac in need of restoration into a 100 point GN showcar.

Not that we can all afford something like that, some guys specialize in engines, hydro-lectric tops, etc. Knowing where to get the parts and the proper dis & reassembly are the keys.

The real fussy guys are sanding and buffing their trim for rechrome, using the exact upholstery fabric, trunk kits, etc.

There is only way to learn, by trying and doing, a good set of tools and shop manuals will get the job done.
