"Hi Logan,
Great pictures of your car and both of you enjoying the holiday. Like us in NY, too snowy and cold now to take out the classic cars. I enjoyed the write up - Happy New Year!

Christmas 2024 with the 1964 Fleetwood 60 Special
A little late posting, but figured some may enjoy seeing it post holiday to keep the winter blues away!My wife, Annie, and I had a great time with the Fleetwood before the salt hit the roads here in Central Illinois. We participated in our local Christmas Parade and was able to haul Mr and Mrs Claus as well! The parade was a great time and the car looked FANTASTIC! Though our candy was froze by the end, it was great to get the car out one last time before the big sleep for winter!We also…See More

"I may need to look into these ramps! They seem pretty helpful"
"I really like the idea of having cribs to get my car up to work on the bottom side as I don't have a lift. How would one go about getting their car that far off the ground safely?"
"My 1964 Fleetwood, whilst not as nice as Dino, supposedly only has 60,XXX miles on it! I purchased it with 52,XXX miles, so I have got some time behind the seat for sure! And I have loved every minute of it! Part of me wonders if it has rolled over,…"
"Side note, still LOVING those tires. When I do my front end rebuild, I'll be getting those tires, no questions asked.
Did you replace the spare tire with one of these as well? Or are you still rocking a factory original tire?"
"I have a set of the cad plated skirt brackets. I am a Bachelor tonight as Annie is gone for a meeting. Perhaps Ill utilize my heated garage for once and get that done!"

Good work on the tranny. Way to go!

I got a "new" transmission from Jason.
I took the pan off, pained, and cleaned THOUROGHLY. All threads, gasket surfaces, etc. I also made sure the pan was not warped around the holes. Transmission, now installed and…"
""Hope I can see the deformations..." --> lay it on anything flat"What grease to use?" --> shouldn't really matter. I just used a couple of dabs of sealer only to tack the gasket in place. The gasket will form your seal…"

"Marty,
Excellent point about the pan!!!!!!

"Same sort of thing with the oil pans. The are notorious for getting over-tightened and bend down. You big lipped channel locks and grip the lower lip and gently bend the entire section back upward then take two small flat pieces of wood…"
"My 2 cents to this after agreeing with Dennis and Jason is to make sure that the areas surrounding the bolt holes have not been deformed by overtightening if they are use a hammer and drift to make them flat. "
"I agree, no need for gasket maker. Just clean surfaces, make sure you bolts threads are clean (female threads in casing and male on bolt shank) and make sure they turn easily and torque to spec (13 ft/lb). Main think is don't overtighten!"

Lower Front End Ball Joints
Posted on May 11, 2023 at 9:04am 10 Comments 0 Likes
Good Morning all!
I took the 64 into the shop to have some adjustments completed and in the process decided to have the lower ball joints replaced as was recommended the last time I had it in. I ordered the parts and came into the shop. They quoted me nearly $500 to replace those lower ball joints requiring nearly 4hrs of labor. Now this is a reputable shop and they know me by name here and they will continue to get my business. I am just questioning what on earth is…

Hi Logan,
What a great picture of you, your wife, and the 64 Caddy Fleetwood on the front of the Self Starter. I should be getting my print copy this week and can't wait to read the story!

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed
Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments 1 Like
While checking my Carter carb with engine running, I took the air cleaner off and there was a very loud hissing sound of air. I placed a piece of paper over the carb and it didn’t move up or down, is this normal?
Vintage Air AC
Posted by Chase on March 21, 2024 at 5:55am 0 Comments 1 Like
Hey everyone, has anybody done a Vintage Air AC/Heat setup in their car? I want to bypass the old vacuum setup and go with a Vintage Air Gen 2 model. Before I get started, does anyone have any experience with this? (Which model to go with, do’s and dont’s, etc.) It looks pretty involved. Any and all info/pics would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
