Finally back on the road
But I can finally say: it is back home and I did my first 2h drive around the neighborhood today, since humidity was down for a change.
While I have great products to clean and maintain my leather I was wondering what you all are using for the rest of the interior (e.g. the dash) and the exterior. I don’t want to go at it with anything to harsh.
Thanks and looking forward to driving finally.

Daniela, That is absolutely fantastic! You have been through so much and glad you hung in there so you can enjoy your 63 Eldorado. Here is a throwback picture of you in that Eldorado from 2021! We will definitely have to do a full newsletter cover feature now that you have it on the road.

As far as interior & exterior cleaning products you will get a variety of answers.
Personally, for exterior waxes I like Meguiar's Ultimate Liquid wax.
If your car paint has road grime, oxidation, etc, and needs a good polishing wax I use Meguiar's Ultimate Compound first, then the Ultimate wax.
For interior vinyl, rubber and plastic I like
Mequiar's Ultimate Protectant
While you said you have leather products I will throw out that I like the Lexol products:

Edelbrock Carb Block off Plates

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…

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?
