Trivia Question 14 - Cadillac Water Level Plug

Ok. So someone asked for trivia. This one should be pretty easy. As noted before, my 50+ year old Cadillac and 100+ year old house projects often intersect, collide, overlap and just get twisted together. Yesterday, I was starting to put up the batter boards to set the perimeter and level of the new house addition and needed to plug the ends of the clear vinyl water lever tube when moving the tube … and of course reached for my parts bin.

So the question is, "What did I use to plug the water lever tube as seen below?"

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed

Posted by SK on June 2, 2025 at 2:20pm 2 Comments 0 Likes

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,

Edelbrock Carb Block off Plates

Hey guys,

I have installed the same Edelbrock carb and have done everything the same as Jason’s carb and intake project. In the spring and summer months the car starts, runs and idles great!
