Does anyone have a wiring diagram for the cruise control cutoff switch?  (Or can someone draw the diagram?). My installation of the cruise control system is going well, though I am taking it slowly so that I don’t damage the old parts, particularly the plastic connector to the speed cable in the speed dial.  The power unit is in, the harness and cable is run, and the dash cover cut and dial installed.  Btw, the speed cable appears to be working properly, though it is a little resistant.  Is there a way to lubricate the cable?

Gentlemen,  I found the schematic on this website.  Thank you, Jason!   I also Googled cable lubrication and found a youtube video about it.  These are amazing times!  Thank you everyone!

Before I accidentally short out my entire electrical system, there is an unused male plug (red or pink wire…) coming out the fuse block (with a set of other wires). I’m thinking it might be a “pigtail” for the cruise control. It appears that the cruise control female end will fit this. (The wires coming out of the brake light switch are pink and white and green? I’m having a little difficulty tracing the pink and white wire)?  Any thoughts?

Also, if anyone has a cruise control, would you mind posting a picture of the cuttoff switch installed so I can see how it’s mounted?  Thank you.

Trivia #34 - What % of 1963 & 1964 Cadillacs Came with Tinted Glass

What % of 1963 and 1964 Cadillacs came with the optional "soft ray" tented glass?  1963 & 1964 were very close, so if you get one you will get the other. Need to get it within 3%. So, who will…Continue

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed

Posted by SK on June 2, 2025 at 2:20pm 2 Comments

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,

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! In the fall and winter months on a cold start, the car starts awful and wants to die until it warms up. I have to keep my foot on the throttle until it warms up or it will idle just terrible and try to die. Once it’s warm, it runs fantastic! Whats going on here? I was thinking of removing the…
