Hi All,

Does anyone know where to get the barrel nuts (or whatever the original method is) to mount the glove box script?  I assume that's what holds it in place.  My car had a stick-on script when I bought it and I'm changing to an original style repro script.  The two mounting studs on the script are tapered from about .050" to .080".  The holes in the glove box door are 1/8". They appear to be too delicate for a screw on type nut so I'm assuming a push in style barrel nut is correct.  By the way, beware that the OPGI script does not come with mounting hardware :(

Thanks,

--Mike

I sourced my retainers from the local hardware store.  I don't know what I would do without ACE hardware stores.

I have the same exact glove box script, for half the price of OPGI, for anyone else looking for a 63 love box script. I also include the mounting hardware.

If you can not find the retainers locally, send me an email, and I will mail you 2 in an envelope.

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!

Who rebuilds original AC  accumulator dryers for 1964 Cadillac? I have been on Classic auto air in Tampa FL wait list for over a year ,  There is one on Old air products web site that looks very similar to the original # 21-4214A but states it fits 1962 Gm cars, The one recommended for a 1964 Cadillac is half the length 21-4215A    What  is everyone using ? I would prefer to be as original as possible. Thanks
