Yesterday I swapped out my older RH mirror with one of the new ones, and it sure looks good. The one I had is a repro I bought way back, and it still looked good but there is nothing like New Chrome! It reminded me that the RH mirror along with a couple other items is why I got into bringing in the parts cars 20+ years ago. My car came with the dealer installed RH mirror, however, when I bought it in 1996 it only had the base remaining. The prior owner said one of his children had pulled on the arm and broke it off. Back then USA Parts sold them ($129 if memory serves) and bought a replacement.  So, here I am 20 years later replacing and upgrading the mirror again, but this time I was able to do a big order and help customers and fellow 63/64 owners.  So... here is 'Dino' with RH mirror with the new chrome shine!

Clovis, I had preordered 16 mirrors for customers from my Wait List.  Ordering in batch and taking advantage of one of OPGI's ongoing sales I was able to offer it to them for a flat $90 vs the $99 listed price saving a few bucks without having to wait for the next applicable OPGI sale.  When I contacted the 16 on the list, 2 had ordered directly from OPGI, so I had 2 extras that went to others that contacted me at that time.  In the end all 16 were shipped out within a week. As far as I know OPGI still has them for order and will hopefully continue to stock them in the foreseeable future.

Just a reminder for any of that ordered one, the RH door installation hole specs are posted on our Help Page under Mirrors.

Thanks Jason

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
