As many of you know, I have compiled (and continue to edit) a fairly extensive list of  vendors specializing in parts and services for vintage Cadillacs.  Some of these entries have no listing of the vendor's particular specialty so are not very useful.

If anyone has information on the vendors below, please reply or email me directly so that I may update the entries to make the list more useful to everyone. If any of these vendors has a website, please give that information as well. There is even one here that has no phone number listed.
Any help at all is appreciated.

Eventually I'd like to get the entire list into a format where one could search for vendors by year of car, product, service, etc. but that will probably take a while. In the meantime, I just want to make each entry as complete as possible.

Thanks again for all your help.

For those who don't know, the complete list can be found by clicking the link in my signature.

Auto Hardware Specialties: Fasteners & hardware for GM cars from  1921-1941, some of which will work on cars up thru the mid 50's. Rex Weber is very helpful and customer service orientated. I have been using them since 2004 and have had excellent experience.
Indy Classic Cadillacs: That is Charlie Babcock, specializes in 1941 thru 1947 Cadillac parts, good parts, not cheap, straight shooter, honest rep of parts.
Information from personal experience, would recommend both, VP

Well, I 've taken about 10 more off my above list thanks to many replies with updated contact information and business specialty.

I'll make the necessary additions to the list.

Ken Johnson is a long time acquaintence. His specialty is hard to find distributor caps, and I believe wipers, plus fasteners and other small items that I am not aware of. He does not advertise except with a "blind" list (I.E. You go to him and see if he has what you need), and from what I have heard, is relatively expensive, but is very accurate about what he has as far as usage is concerned.

These people Forrest advertise extensively in Hemmings and specialise in rebuilding flathead engine cores. I have no experience of them except they used to seem very reasonably priced with complete rebuilt exchange engines below the $2000 mark!
