Has anyone removed the window frames from the doors. I want to get my frames re chromed and need to remove all windows, I did not see a "help" topic on this. Has anyone done this before? I would appreciate any information before I attempt to tackle this. I'm a novice mechanic at best.

Factory Shop Manual is your best friend.

You need to remove the upper stoppers of the windows, then lift the window a bit higher than usual limit, and you can open the screws which hold the chrom trims in place.

I looked in the manual and I did not see anything specific to that. I want to take the frames out also to get them re chrome.

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?

Vintage Air AC

Posted by Chase on March 21, 2024 at 5:55am 0 Comments

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!

Who rebuilds original AC  accumulator dryers for 1964 Cadillac? I have been on Classic auto air in Tampa FL wait list for over a year ,  There is one on Old air products web site that looks very similar to the original # 21-4214A but states it fits 1962 Gm cars, The one recommended for a 1964 Cadillac is half the length 21-4215A    What  is everyone using ? I would prefer to be as original as possible. Thanks
