Brake lines
Need help installing rear brake line. Mine is totally out of the car. 64 Fleetwood. I'd like to know how the brake line is routed from master cylinder to flexible line in the back of car. Also where to attach it to the frame. THANKS

There may be fasteners still on the frame. If I remember correctly, the lines ran along the center of the car along the X frame member. Ahead of the differential on the frame there is a fitting that allowed for the lines to run to the left and right wheels. I think it was the line for the rear passenger side that ran above the frame cross member over the rear axle. I can't remember (I don't have my shop manual handy) if the shop manual showed the brake line routing, but take a look.

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed

Could someone post front and back photos of the 1963 right-hand kick panel with A/C?
My car didn’t come with the original kick panels, so it's a bit of a mystery to me how I should cut the backing board and carpet to fit around the A/C.
Many thanks,

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed
Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments 1 Like
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?
