1958 Cadillac Restoration

In the before pictures you will see the rusted, poor body condition of the '58 Cadillac, which was repaired and restored to original condition.  The original black color was updated to a dark metallic gray and the upholstery also needed to be replaced.  We replaced the original upholstery with a fabric pattern complimentary to the new paint with piping around the seats that matched the paint exactly. The client also wanted to completely overhaul the stereo system in the classic car, which we accomplished without altering any of the original attributes.

Our Client wanted the best of the best, so we installed a Clarion DRZ9255, included a Sirius satellite radio module, iPod adapter, Focal K2 speakers, Focal KX subwoofers, 2 Audison LRx Amplifiers, an Alumapro 15 Farad Capacitor, Optima Red Top, 0 and 4 gauge power wire and terminals, voltage indicating fuse blocks, custom subwoofer enclosure tuned specifically for the '58 Cadillac and Focal subs, custom amp rack, and we included the Focal logo design in the new trunk carpeting.  The most unbelievably crisp, clear sound system we've designed to date.  It all starts with the high-end stereo receiver (head unit) and goes back to the lowest distortion rated amplifiers which sends out a clear signal to the high-end speaker line.  Truly high definition sound with any audio/video source.

Since 1902, the Cadillac line of cars has been synonymous with quality, luxury, and elegance. But while Cadillacs were once immediately distinguishable, the new line conforms more to modern standard design and style. The company established itself in the 1930s as the luxury car of America and retained that position for more than forty years. In the 1970s, however, Cadillac began losing market position to other luxury vehicles from Europe. Only recently, with the success of SUV and larger vehicles, has Cadillac begun to regain that leadership in the luxury and large vehicle market.

A History of Innovation

Cadillac has a history of innovation and technological advances beginning with the first fully-enclosed car body in 1905. Cadillac also built the first limousine, the first mass-produced V8 engine, the first sun-roofs, and was the first manufacturer to offer power steering as a standard feature. The company was also a leader in offering service and owner protection. In 1988, Cadillac was the first luxury car manufacturer to offer 24-hour road-side service and continues to draw a loyal and passionate clientele. Many Cadillac owner clubs exist and a Cadillac culture has built up around the line.
