63 cadillac jetaway filler tube leak

Posted on November 5, 2014 at 10:19am 2 Comments

Hello Everyone once again I am struggling with transmission leak. After months of inspecting, changing pan gaskets, and pans, I can definitely see a slow yet constant leak from the filler tube where it mates to the trans. Here is the problem, the tube is mounted to the exhaust manifold and upon inspection and trying to remove that bolt I fear it breaking into the block and opening a world of troubles. Without removing the filler tube, Is there any other way to replace that O ring or put some…

1963 Cadillac Upper Control Arm Bushings

Posted on February 22, 2013 at 10:55am 0 Comments

Hi all, can anyone tell me, "how I can tell if I have the 1 1/2" or 1 7/16" upper control arm bushings on my car, while the bushing is on the car?" Mostly every auto parts place have 2 sizes listed, I hate to get the wrong part, but I also hate to take it apart and not have the new part ready to put on. I don't have the luxury of keeping the car apart for days. Any helpful hints would be greatly appreciated. Thank Jim

Hi all, I have a question. Did anyone ever use Lakewood 24350 Polyurethane Trans Mount for a 63 caddy with a hydramatic? (See posted photo) All of the websites that sell this product it claims it's an exact fit for '56-'64 Cadillacs, If so, can you give some advise on how difficult the task was and if it fit properly. The reason I am asking is the part looks different than the original and i would like to avoid unforeseen problem by jumping in head first. I greatly appreciate any help you…

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed

Posted by SK on June 2, 2025 at 2:20pm 2 Comments

Could someone post front and back photos of the 1963 right-hand kick panel with A/C?

My car didn’t come with the original kick panels, so it's a bit of a mystery to me how I should cut the backing board and carpet to fit around the A/C.

Many thanks,

Edelbrock Carb Block off Plates

Posted by Chase on March 12, 2025 at 2:05pm 14 Comments

I have to keep my foot on the throttle until it warms up or it will idle just terrible and try to die. Once it’s warm, it runs fantastic! Whats going on here? I was thinking of removing the…
