I have an issue with my left side lower bulb in the bumper end housing portion. The bulb that operates the backup light. I can't get a bulb to operate although I do get 12V when I put my tester to that center pin inside the bulb housing. I even added some solder to the tip of the bulb contact to see if the buidup would help contact, but no go. The bulb does take a bit of effort to insert as if it is contacting the spring loaded pin.

U had this same issue and messed with the socket for a long time, but could not get it to work consistently - the spring at the base was just too old and had lost its springiness. I replaced the socket and all was well. I documented the process at the link below - it is really pretty easy and actually took much less time than I had spent fiddling with the original socket.

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?

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!

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…
