Do 1957 and 1958 Eldorado Broughams use the same air tank? Also does anyone have a picture of the tank? Thanks, Brian 412 952 6027.

Brian, '57 and '58 air tanks have the same part number. Here is a picture taken in 1987 during the restoration of my Brougham # 230.

Why not contact those guys that are butchering a brougham as we speak? The link is in the general forum about turning a brougham into something else. Better hurry before it's too late. You might be able to get other good interior and engine parts.

Hi Brian

The fact that is forum does not accept high resolution shots drives me nuts.  I had note typed and attached a photo only to loose everything because the photo is to large and it gets kicked back.  All the photos I take from my restoration are high res because you never know when you need to zoom in. 
Anyway back to the original thought, if you like, send me a mail and I can send you a photo of some parts I tried to buy before the car was sold.  The cars air suspension was removed, but the pieces were there.
My "good" car air suspension is complete and I am working on it and have completed a few things.  The plan is to drive the car for the first time in the spring of 09. 

I like to make contact and maintain a dialog with fellow Brougham owners.  Please feel free to contact me for some better photos, I'm in the new CLC yearbook and I'm in MI or just email from this site.

Attached is a different photo of Brougham tank.
