All, I just got my 63 Eldorado Biarritz and am looking for a good trustworthy mechanic/garage that can do repairs and maintenance for it since my knowledge about mechanical things are very limited. I live in south Charlotte, NC.
Thanks
Daniela

While I am in the Raleigh, NC area I am an active member of the Charlotte based CLC Carolina Region and would strongly encourage you to join the Region and reach out to members such as our President Travis Dowell who has lived in the Charlotte area and has had a fleet of Cadillacs over the years and can probably point you to some local Charlotte based mechanics. Travis is listed on the Carolina Region Website on the contacts page at this link: https://cr-clc.ning.com/contacts Travis can also get you signed up to the region so you can make contacts with other region members! When we are not dealing with this COVID mess we usually have meet-ups in and around Charlotte just about every month. Our main website home page is at www.crclc.org

Thank you for the feedback! I will definitely do that. I am looking forward to having meet ups hopefully soon.
Lol - That is good to know. Maybe I have to look into moving, too. ;-)
Thanks and looking forward to meeting everybody.

I would prefer to be as original as possible. Thanks

'63 Eldorado trumpet horn + 2 standard horns restoration

Posted by Les Eastling on November 15, 2023 at 10:34am 1 Comment

My son, unbeknownst to me, had all three of the horns on our 1963 Eldorado completely restored. We had recently added the Eldorado trumpet horn to the two standard horns and the sound was not very good... we had heard good ones so we knew something was not right... but there was not much we could do to get better sound from the 3 horns. 

There is a restoration service called The Horn Works who my son…

Here it is:

 

The main factor is the length of the ceramic insulator from the middle of the spark plug to the tip (where the spark happens)  

The insulator…
