I need to see the right way to attach my door panels. Just had them made but am unsure of how to attach them. A pic would be great. Thanks in advance

On the side perimeter, those are small ring-shank like nails that go through the metal strip on inner edge of door panel. On my 64CDV I actually used small ring shank nails from Home Depot to drive thru door panel and into insert for the few I was missing.

Who rebuilt your door panels?  Mine were done in the not-too-distant past but aren't an original pattern.  I'd like to go back to proper door panels.

Thanks,

Thanks Jason! That door has the same long slot as the 61-62 have that the water proof paper goes into. In the next few weeks I will stop by Rubber the Rightway store and get a photo of their water proof paper.
Not sure if mine are original pattern either. They matched what I brought in just made them new

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…
