No.   Justv73,  it came on car when bout.  Had some missfires, and hv it down to wire problem, so replacing them

The 73 came w the distributr i posted, for part reference.  Its funny, when i bought tge car, it tokk off at lights like a spotted ape.  I thought it wss either an accelerator adjustment needed.  It just jumped from dead stop. Had to consciuously ease it on for smooth take off.   Now, unknowingly, and upon futther readings, these belden premiums should be fine.   But after replacing all 8, takeoff is smooth as butter. No hesitation or missing, even at cold engine.  I am jist hoping that they werevall in some sort of worn condition and new wiring git it bk on line.  I cked timing, all was as it shoud be.   The whole acceleration is just much smoother

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed

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

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?

Vintage Air AC

Posted by Chase on March 21, 2024 at 5:55am 0 Comments

Hey everyone, has anybody done a Vintage Air AC/Heat setup in their car? I want to bypass the old vacuum setup and go with a Vintage Air Gen 2 model. Before I get started, does anyone have any experience with this? (Which model to go with, do’s and dont’s, etc.) It looks pretty involved. Any and all info/pics would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I would prefer to be as original as possible. Thanks

My son, unbeknownst to me, had all three of the horns on our 1963 Eldorado completely restored. We had recently added the Eldorado trumpet horn to the two standard horns and the sound was not very good... we had heard good ones so we knew something was not right... but there was not much we could do to get better sound from the 3 horns. 

There is a restoration service called The Horn Works who my son…
