Clock Operation - Chattering contacts points

Trying to work on the clock out of my 64.  When I put a charge to it, the contact points chatter back and forth, sounding like a doorbell buzzer.  I don't see the gears moving and the points never snap back.  Has anyone experienced this?  Ted

For My Dad.... "Dear Father, I've got your Photograph"

I lost my dad 6 years ago today to a senseless Catheritization gone bad, but remember and miss him everyday. He was a HUGE influence on my fascniation with cars, and a BIG help in getting my hobby with 1963 and 1964 Cadillacs off the ground.

I created a slideshow and posted on my YouTube page which you can also see below. I know your father's influenced many of you in your affections for cars and Cadillacs and thought I would share.…

1963 Cadillac Upper Control Arm Bushings

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

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed

Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments

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

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!

I would prefer to be as original as possible. Thanks

My son, unbeknownst to me, had all three of the horns on our 1963 Eldorado completely restored.

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