I did a little tutorial on the 63 right front ashtray.I saw in Jason's latest video where he mentions this as a bad design. From my experience, it's not a bad mechanical design but rather it's not an…Continue

Color Wiring Diagram - 1963 Series 62 Convertible, AC, AMFM by Karl Schwarz
"Karl, did you create this wiring diagram? It's so much easier to follow than the black & white version. Thanks for providing it. Also Jason, thanks for posting it."
"Alright, going for Cadillac script again but it's missing from the glove box."
"Nevermind. I'm blind"
"I never noticed this before, but just by searching pics it looks like there is no Cadillac script in the grille on those models."
"Ah yes, the windshield install: one of my least favorite experiences on my car. I paid an auto glass to do it. After bringing it back to them 3 times to try to make it leak-free, I just wound up with damaged molding to boot. I decided to cut my…"

"Thanks Jason. Very interesting information. Looks like A/C made the biggest jump from 63 to 64. Wished I had the rare bucket seats."
"If tilt steering is N/A for 1963, does that mean it was dealer installed?"

Of course now I have to post the obligatory nipple shields. LOL : )"

Kurt,
Yes, I was really bummed about the GN cancellation. I was looking forward to getting together with the usual folks and the 63-64 guys and taking the 63 and my 32 to show. The annual Keels and Wheels Concours was also postponed from May until October. My 1932 All Weather Phaeton was invited to that one. I've attached a couple of pictures of both cars. The 63 has only 34k miles and would have been entered in the Primary and Preservation Classes. The 63 is triple green (basildon). Hope to see you soon.
Take care,
Ken Karrer

Hi Kurt, to tell the truth it's not Elmshorn, it's Neuendorf where I come from. This is exact half the way between Elmshorn and Glückstadt. But there are houndreds of Neuendorf in Germany so I decided to say Elmshorn as there is only one in Germany. If you are ever here again you're welcome.

Food Cruise

A group of my car buddies & I go on a monthly food cruise, sometimes breakfast, lunch or dinner. Last Saturday we took a 40 mile cruise down country roads from Austin TX to Salado TX. We went to a shop there called City Garage that specializes in Lincolns & had lunch afterwards at a good burger joint in Salado. We've been lucky this winter with beautiful weather for the most part with just a few cold rainy days in between. Here's a little video I put together from the cruise. It's a…

Our local CLC chapter had their annual show at Covert Cadillac in Austin TX yesterday.
There is an interesting story on the 61 limo. A man wanted to purchase a car for some nuns. They reluctantly agreed but insisted that it be bare bones with no radio or air conditioning. When the 61 series 75 showed up of course even without a radio or a/c it was way too ostentatious. The nuns tried to return it to the dealer but they said they could not sell it because it didn't have a/c. So most…

I went to the annual Lincoln show in Salado TX on Saturday. Yes, I have friends on the dark side. LOL. I brought my 63 CDV of course. There was also a pristine 67 Eldo, & a 89 Allante in the spectator lot so Cadillac was well represented. On the way home we stopped at Hardtails Bar & Grill in Georgetown TX http://www.hardtailsbarandgrill.com/index.html and there crashing through the wall is a full sized front end from a 64…
