This is more a gm question than cadillac specific.  Is there anyway to find the color formula so you can get a color made locally.  I hv the color, regimental red, but i need the specific formula.  

Any thiights would be appreciated

Regimental Red would not have been a factory name color. You can see cross reference codes for the factory colors on this help page: Paint Chip Cross Reference Codes - 1963 Cadillac

You can see Paint Chip Samples at this link: Paint Chips for 63 & 64 Cadillacs 

If trying to match an area of car to touch up it is often best to have painter scan another area of the car.  If painting the entire car, the painter should be able to use some of these cross reference codes to come up with a formula.  My local painter was able to do both. When matching existing paint we ended up scanning.

Ok,  thanks.  Hv a lot of small rock chip spots on the nose i wanted to get cleaned up

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed

Posted by SK on June 2, 2025 at 2:20pm 2 Comments

Could someone post front and back photos of the 1963 right-hand kick panel with A/C?

My car didn’t come with the original kick panels, so it's a bit of a mystery to me how I should cut the backing board and carpet to fit around the A/C.

Many thanks,

-Samu

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?
