Jason's Oct 9, 2022 Ramble - A Good Time with Good Cadillac Friends

The Carolina Region Gang on ramp over to docks on Lake Monroe in Statesville, NC. Me and Cheryl are over on the far left. I had set the iPhone camera up on tripod and had to run around and make it in 10 seconds. It took 2 tries but finally made it!

Cheryl and I had a fantastic meet-up with the CLC Carolina Region Saturday at member Rich and Gail Neary's Lake Monroe Pavilion.    We made a two day weekend of it, staying at a nearby Hilton Garden Inn, with our two Yorkies then heading home today.  We drove the 2013 Escalade EXT - ET2Brute' which of course made the 150 mile trek like a boss with it's 403 hp 6.2 Liter pushing that 6 lb vehicle effortless down Interstate 40. 

The weather was picture perfect, food was great, but the company was even better! If you like Cadillacs and have not joined the CLC and a CLC region you are missing a world of fun. As much as  I like posting on forums and sharing information there is nothing like meeting up in person.  Yeah, we like our Cadillacs and even brought a few as seen below but the fun is just hanging out and enjoying the camaraderie with others that have a similar passion.

So that's my ramble about a great weekend with our Carolina Region Cadillac Family.  I will leave you with a few of the Cadillacs on hand:

Rich & Gail Neary's 1957 Fleetwood


Tim Crosswhite's 1978 Eldorado

Glenn & Doris Simmons' 1995 Eldorado Touring Coupe

There appears to be some kind of felt washer around the top of my oil dipstick, presumable to seal off the dipstick tube. I've looked around the usual parts suppliers but came up empty. There's not…Continue

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

'63 Eldorado trumpet horn + 2 standard horns restoration

Posted by Les Eastling on November 15, 2023 at 10:34am 1 Comment

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…
