Title: 1972-1976 Cadillac Parade Boots
Post by: customproducts on November 19, 2009, 07:28:02 PM
Does anyone know, if they made any after market boots or was they all GM? I have one we are restoring right now and am currently looking for one, any help is greatly appreciated..

Thanks in advance.

They do but they are not cheap.  Here's one,

They will fit the 71 also but they did not come from the factory with them.

As a side note I currently have these on eBay for a 71-72.

If you type Parade Boot into eBay you will always find some for sale.  Most of the time they go for about $400 plus shipping.

Sometimes they go for a bit cheaper.

Be careful and look close for damage.

Thanks again, we can buy one from a fella who has one brand new in the box, he says it's a GM so we are going to go look at it today, i noticed that link you gave me in your op was Hydro E, we bought some cylinders and pumps from them for a old Lincoln convertible we restored, we didn't know they did molds and stuff too, we will keep them in mind for future endeavors! Thanks again for your help!
