Default RIP Pete Ciadella, Scottsdale, AZ and upstate NY

We lost another good friend. Pete Ciadella of Cn'V Corvettes and Ciadella Interiors passed away last Friday after a long well fought battle with cancer.

He was a Viet Nam veteran.

He reproduced the finest classic car interiors and was well respected in the automobile industry for a long time. For years he was a welcome fixture at all of the Mecum Auction events.

He will be sadly missed!

Sorry to hear of Pete's passing
I'm sure not many can do those classic interior restorations.

I knew he was ill. Long time friend and hobby guy. Always selling or buying at auctions or Pomona. We had a lot of laughs over the years.

His 55-57 Chevy interiors were the best back in the old days.

Pete Ciadella was one class act.

I met Pete over 12 years ago at classic car auctions and at numerous Pomona Swap meets buying Corvettes. It was very impressive that he paid cash for cars he purchased and had a car hauler standing by for loading.

A very generous and warm personality would be an accurate description of Pete.

RIP my good friend, Pete Ciadella, owner of Cn'V Corvettes and Ciadella Interiors.
