What are the Mods You Do Want to Make to your 63/64 Cadillac? Mods you will not consider?

[Jason Edge]

OK, So the other thread addressing  Mods you Have Made that you were Happy or Unhappy was popular, so  I will start one where we list Mods you want to make on your 63/64 Cadillac but have never gotten around to it?
I will also add a rule, this needs to be a true change to the car. I am not asking about maintenance or restoration/replacement of existing items! Those will be deleted. Let's stick to mods. They can be factory equipment options or wild modifications. 

I will go first:

For my 64 Coupe de Ville which I am trying to keep a stock look:

Mods/Options  I would like to make:
- factory cruise control - especially when wife retires and can do more cross country cruising

- twilight sentinel - the cherry red 64 SDV I had way back had this feature and loved it.

- factory bucket seats - especially if I find a nice set in Sandalwood or just very nice overall

- power trunk - I've had a few parts cars where it worked great and it's a nice feature and discussion point

- rear window defogger - not a really functional item for me but one of the easier items to install and another discussion topic.

- I would love to find the original Litter Box and/or Tissue valet offered for these cars. 

Mods/Options I have no desire to add:
- vacuum power locks - I have a hard enough time getting the hoses out of parts cars, I don't want to put them in, and is very involved.

- non-stock wheels/rims, especially wire wheels. (I think a nice set of the original hubcaps are gorgeous)

- wide white walls - even on a resto-mod, or custom, I think they look wrong on our cars.

- disc brakes - Never had any braking issues and pretty flat where I live and have had zero issue with brake fade.

- non stock lighting, inside and out - on a restomod or custom car I would go crazy with LED's, wiring, sound sytsems, etc., but for more original lighting IS part of the original look on these cars. Most dim light issues are due to corroded inner reflective surfaces on the various lamp fixtures. 

- non stock sound system that means cutting up the car - You can get blue tooth boom boxes that you can just throw in the back seat that will blow you out of the car, and you can take your tunes with you. The stock AM/FM  and speakers is OK, It is not the Bose system in my Escalade but I sort of like using the original equipment to still be able to listen to the radio when I want to. 

- Lowering a car.  Having a car 3" off the ground and scraping speed bumps did nothing for me when I was 18 or now that I'm 55. I like the correct ride height.

Awesome post. Just read it. Thanks for sharing. Knowing that after I get other issues I will later go LS I couldn’t go that fancy. I really just want to get her back on the road.
