<p>Just replaced radios for the modern radios with Bluetooth and all the dance things and wanted to share how I went around the antenna knob… <br></br>I’ve installed a regular two way GM window switch in the glove compartment box so it’s concealed and convenient as well. </p>

<p>I recently purchased a new boot for my 64 convertible and was wondering how difficult it s to install. I'm not very mechanical. It looks like the chrome piece behind and at top of seats needs to be removed? I could find any videos on it. Any suggestions would be appreciated. THX </p>

<p></p> TH400 Dipstick Tube Sealtag:6364cadillac.ning.com,2024-03-21:6543066:Topic:3714422024-03-21T16:59:39.334ZDominic Salemihttps://6364cadillac.ning.com/profile/DominicSalemi
<p>In my “rebuild” of the transmission, I ordered a dipstick tube seal. However, I’m not sure if the right one came or how to best install the seal. <br/><br/></p>
<p>I am wondering if anyone has replaced this seal OR found another way to seal the tube to the pan. <br/><br/></p>
<p>Many Thanks! <br/><br/></p>

<p>I have been so crazy busy the last 2 months I have had little time to get my 64 out and do some real driving, but yesterday was Dino's 60th Birthday and had to <strong>clear the other Cadillacs and Make Way for The Golden Cadillac! </strong></p>
<p>Our driveway is tight and with 3 driver Cadillacs (2002 & 2013 Excalade, 2022 XT5), and a parts car in front of my garage getting the 64 in and out can be a challenge. After moving the 2 EXT's my wife Cheryl and I probably put 25 to 30 miles…</p>

<p>Eventually I’ll replace the speedo cable if needed but I believe the dash will need to come out to do that. However, shortly, I will be replacing the transmission on my 64 Fleetwood and I was wondering when we plug the Speedo cable into the new trans, is there a lubricant I can get into there? It makes noise especially when cold. Figure it might help a little. <br></br><br></br></p>
<p>Thanks! <br></br><br></br></p>

<p>Also, I’ll upload a few photos of the “Craigslist Rebuild” I did on…</p>

<p>Also, I’ll upload a few photos of the “Craigslist Rebuild” I did on the trans. No full rebuild, but the case and pan sure looks better!

<p>One of my goals is to get another 1964 429 and rebuild it my self for fun. My Fleetwood, to my knowledge, is just fine. No engine issues. But now that I have a spare transmission, might as well have a spare motor too! <br></br><br></br></p>
<p>I don’t need a spare, but would be a fun project to work on and then eventually when the Fleetwood does need a rebuild, I’ve got one already build and ready to go! Seem logical if you ask me HA! <br></br><br></br></p>

<p>I know 64 blocks are hard to find, but I wanted to confirm a few things:</p>
<p></p>
<p>1) Will a 429 out of a 1964 Series 75 Limo work? I know they carried over for 1965 so curious if they had adapted the block and trans at that time as well. <br/><br/></p>
<p>2) 64 is a one year only block and transmission, correct? What are the differences in the block and what should I look for to confirm I have the correct block? Are there engine number stamping that I could reference as a sure fire way to know it’s a 64 429 block?</p>

<p>Got to meet Mike Brewer from the TV show Wheeler Dealer at car show in Delray Beach. He's seems to be a great guy, just like on his show. He couldn't have been nicer and has that great British sense of humor. As I expected, I didn't win any prizes for my Big Red 64 but received plenty of looks and compliments. After all, the muscle in the 64 is quite, unseen and comfortable just they WE like it?</p>
