Slowly Making Way Back from Winter Board Meeting in Dallas-Forth Worth

CLC President Ronnie Hux fell and broke his shoulder a couple of weeks before our Winter Board Meeting in Dallas - Forth Worth so I had to do double duty covering for him including running our Board Meeting yesterday.  Driving the 2013 Escalade EXT, I left NC Jan 21, delivered a grill in SC then made my way to my uncles in Orange Texas (just 4 miles into the state), then on to the WBM on Jan 24. I checked out today then made way way back to Orange TX.  Hope to make it back home by Jan 30 ... may try the long direct 15 hr drive tomorrow but will probably stop 1/2 way home to split up the drivinng.

Had a great time visiting the GM Arlington Assembly Plant that makes all the big SUV's including Escalades and Escalades V's for Cadillac, an immaculate car collection owned Sam Pack who has dealerships in the area, and dinner at Billy Bob's Texas saloon and restaurant .... the biggest in TX.   I also toured the Frontiers of Flight Air Museum by Dallas' Love Field, and other events with the CLC members, including a few Chapter members.  I will share a lot more later.

Below is a picture of Chapter Member Bob Schles who we just featured with is 64 Eldorado a few months back. He also servers as VP and Editor of the Valley Forge region.  In this picture he is posting with a 2024 Escalade V at the Arlington Assembly Plant.

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?
