5 Attachment(s)
Well I've been shopping for '78 Fleetwoods, 80's model limos, and '72 Model 75s....but I found a sweet deal on a '76 El Dorado with a few small issues and I grabbed it up.
Now I'm in the market for a few replacement parts: 1. Rag top 2. Drivers side glass 3. AC Compressor 4. Dash pad Is there a good one-stop shop for these items? Anyway...glad to be here! |

I guess my shocking discovery is the scarce availability of parts relative to my other play around cars. I've bought and fixed up a 79 CJ-8, 90 Suburban, 88 Jimmy (sold it like a dummy), and still have a 73 Ford F100 waiting on me to restore. Plenty of aftermarket sources like LMC and Quadratech for Fords, Chevys and Jeeps. Not so for 70s Caddys?!!? I googled replacement convertable tops expecting a bunch of places to choose from and ended up with sort of a random grouping of generic JC Whitney sites and custom fabric shops.... Guess I need to dig deeper into those links you posted on the new members primer.... :) |
