Happy Father's Day to all the Dad's Out There

Here's a shout out to all the Dad's out there, and all of you like me that were greatly influence by their dad's.  My dad Sam Edge had a huge influence on me in terms of my interest in automobiles.    Everything in his life revolved around  his two boys, and literally gave us everything he had to make our lives as good as they could be under the circumstances.

We grew up poor, and as a laid off and recently divorced truck driver for Burlington Industries raising two boys in the late…

Engine Break-In Procedures per Engine Builders Association.

When I rebuilt my engine in 2012, I found a useful guide by the AERA (Associated Engine Rebuilders)  that I went by when I broke in my engine and thought I would post here and put a link in our Help Topics page since this topic has come up a few times recently.

Here is the main link: http://gafiero.akroncdnr.com/docs/BreakIn.pdf 

Here are some of the main points I picked up from it:

Message Board renamed Blogs and Forums Added in the Website Header

In order to get us more familiar with the set-up and use of separate Forums, vs Blogs (what we use for our Message board), I have renamed Message Board to Blogs, and added a new tab called Forums.  You can continue to use  Blogs as our Message Board but as you get use to some of the features of the Forums you will probably want to use the forums functionality for lengthy group Q&A type discussion.  These are just baby steps in what will hopefully be a more robust way to communication…

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!

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

'63 Eldorado trumpet horn + 2 standard horns restoration

Posted by Les Eastling on November 15, 2023 at 10:34am 1 Comment

My son, unbeknownst to me, had all three of the horns on our 1963 Eldorado completely restored. We had recently added the Eldorado trumpet horn to the two standard horns and the sound was not very good... we had heard good ones so we knew something was not right... but there was not much we could do to get better sound from the 3 horns. 

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