WTD 1964 Sedan Deville w/all options 20k
1964 Sedan Deville with the original 429 engine and TH400 transmission. Engine has approximately 91k miles on the odometer and runs very well. I've replaced the plugs with NOS AC44 plugs, replaced the wires, fuel lines, and a few other components within the engine bay to ensure reliability. The engine starts up well and runs very smoothly from 10 mph up to 100 mph. The transmission shifts very well and she'll smoke tires if you lay into her from a dead stop. This car can easily make a road trip…See More
"You are welcome, Tim. You are correct, the rubber boot will not fit on the replacements. If you can't find them, this is a good alternative.

"I'd prefer to source an original or NOS if possible. I'm not sure the rubber boot will fit on those. Worse comes to worse I'll grab them. Thank you for the suggestion but I'm a stickler for OEM or original :)"

"Is it as simple as the switch? Any sources for the original two connector type?"
"Jason I tested that and one side worked (dash courtesy lights) but the other terminal (just have two) had no spark or didn't do anything."

"Hi Tim,
Like you, I had a problem with the courtesy lights for the driver's door. Those switches were originally grounded to the metal frame (they loosen over time). I decided to replace the switches and got a…"
"The courtesy light switches are bad for going bad. All they do is take the circuits to ground and are easy to test. Just pop switch out, and unplug each of the 3 wires (2 or 3 wires) and touch each to the rim of metal. Each light circuit (e.g. dash,…"
"For 895 it was worth it. Trying to source the original leather from SMS would be time consuming and pricey. Besides its only original once!"

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed

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!

Who rebuilds original AC accumulator dryers for 1964 Cadillac? I have been on Classic auto air in Tampa FL wait list for over a year , There is one on Old air products web site that looks very similar to the original # 21-4214A but states it fits 1962 Gm cars, The one recommended for a 1964 Cadillac is half the length 21-4215A What is everyone using ? I would prefer to be as original as possible. Thanks
