Trivia Question 6 - Weight of Rear End Assembly
I think Kevin wanted some more trivia so here is one I can give you from parts end of things.
Looking at the rear end assembly below, what is the weight?
Whoever gets it within 5 lbs gets the cigar!
NOTE: this is a Controlled Differential (posi) rear end but believe the weight would be close to the regular hypoid type rear end. Also note it does not include the control links or upper control arm. And no, chain hoist were not weighed!! Just the net weight of the rear end assembly? Rear end does have rear end oil.
So.. who is going to get the cigar!!!!

Everyone wants the thicker 75 series! Thought I might do some interesting yard art some day! My wife Cheryl already wants to makes yard benches with the coil springs...as if they have not already been utilized around the garage!

What % of 1963 and 1964 Cadillacs came with the optional "soft ray" tented glass? 1963 & 1964 were very close, so if you get one you will get the other. Need to get it within 3%. So, who will…Continue

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! In the fall and winter months on a cold start, the car starts awful and wants to die until it warms up. I have to keep my foot on the throttle until it warms up or it will idle just terrible and try to die. Once it’s warm, it runs fantastic! Whats going on here? I was thinking of removing the…
