Sneak Peak of Parts Car and Garage

I've just upgraded my Drop Cam HD to Drop Cam Pro for surveillance outside the garage and can make it public at my discretion. I'm thinking I might take one with me to the Lake George Grand National but will need to test on some "off sit" wifi hotspots.

If you have fast broadband, I've turned the camera on the corner of the garage on a bit, which you can see by clicking on http://dropc.am/p/BQTSLH

You will see the current parts car in…

Post New Messages to the 'Message Board' --> Status Updates Turned Off

I have noticed many members simply post a "Status Update" when they want to ask a question or tell others about something instead of posting to the Message Board. The problem with this is that it is only seen by those you have "friended" on the site and believe most of you want the entire group to see your posts. 

With that in mind, I have disabled the Status Update feature and instead encourage you to click on Message…

Dealer Data Book on Ebay ---> Not Cheap

Well, I took a gamble on this one as the outside cover is obviously poor to fair at best, but the pages are stated as nice.  Hopefully the pages on the inside are nice as the seller indicated! 

I  have been getting nervous that I would not find a 1964 Dealer Data Book as we approach 2014 and the 50th Year Anniversary look that model year. As you know from the 1963 Dealer Data Book, which I have been pulling info out of and including in the newsletters, has a wealth of information. …

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…
