Not 63 or 64 related but still neat to see these magnificent beasts assembled. Also neat to see a factory fresh vintage car.

Cool video! You can tell the workers had pride in the Cadillacs they were building!  This was a nation almost 100% committed to producing a quality product. Fast forward to 2022 and it is an entirely different story. Beyond the robots, watch people in all trades as they go through their work day.  75% of their time is staring at their phone, 10% is ramping up to figure out what to do, and 15% actual work. I've seen it in construction crews, retail stores, etc. I guess assembly lines still have to have a higher level of concentration but bet it is nothing like this video.  Even go to the gym ... I know we are not supposed to judge but I see the majority of people that will go to a machine, do 10 reps, then sit there playing with their phone for 10 minutes .... and tying up the machine!    But, these are also often the same people I see circling the parking lot to try and get an up front parking lot at the gym! Sorry for the side rant. But these people on this video are alien to workers I see anywhere and everywhere today ... at least for the most part! There are still some good workers out there.

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…
