If you read Kurt's story in our December Newsletter you will note that his grandfather that had owned the 1963 Cadillac had worked part time at the local Henninger's Gulf Station in Austin TX, and in fact was were the Cadillac was bought by his grandfather. It was pure coincidence that the Looking Back section where I included a 63 Cadillac and other car related ads included a Gulf Ad. Kurt even sent an email and said he could remember his grandfather wearing a similar uniform minus the tie! I thought that was a cool coincidence! Here is the ad.

Edelbrock Carb Block off Plates

Posted by Chase on March 12, 2025 at 2:05pm 14 Comments

Hey guys,

I have installed the same Edelbrock carb and have done everything the same as Jason’s carb and intake project. In the spring and summer months the car starts, runs and idles great!

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed

Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments
