I was renewing my This Old House Insider subscription which gives me full access to every episode back to Season 1, Episode 1 in 1979, and noted a 1964 convertible for the promo picture for the latest season 46 premier where they head to Nashville. This aired Sept 26, 2024 during my recent road trip to San Antonio and missed it.When I see a 63 or 64 Caddy, it always stops me dead in my tracks and had to check out a bit of it to see the 64 Caddy. Here is the promo picture and took a couple of…See More

Jason Edge replied to Logan Robb's discussion Trans Pan Seal Replacement
"Same sort of thing with the oil pans. The are notorious for getting over-tightened and bend down.  You big lipped channel locks and grip the lower lip and gently bend the entire section back upward then take two small flat pieces of wood…"

Marty Smith replied to Logan Robb's discussion Trans Pan Seal Replacement
"My 2 cents to this after agreeing with Dennis and Jason is to make sure that the areas surrounding the bolt holes have not been deformed by overtightening if they are use a hammer and drift to make them flat. "

Jason Edge replied to Scott Santora's discussion engine compartment color
"In general in terms of engine back items painted black: - Cowl/firewall, under hood and inner fenders will be satin black, - Corner braces/brackets and radiator support, will be more of a semi gloss, a bit more sheen. - Oil Filler cap, air filter…"

Jason Edge replied to Logan Robb's discussion Trans Pan Seal Replacement
"I agree, no need for gasket maker. Just clean surfaces, make sure you bolts threads are clean (female threads in casing and male on bolt shank) and make sure they turn easily and torque to spec (13 ft/lb). Main think is don't overtighten!"

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!

accumulator dryer

Posted by CHRIS CARLSON on December 6, 2023 at 10:54am 0 Comments

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
