Some of the GN guests are now arriving, and look to see many more tomorrow. Chapter member Tim Coy is here with his 63 Sedan, and Rob Leonard is here with his 4 Sedan DeVille. I have a suite on the 10th floor with a great view of Vegas Skyline and the parking lot that will be used for the car show. I've been posting a few pictures from around the Hotel on the CLC Facebook Group site at https://www.facebook.com/groups/cadillaclasalleclub/.
Here is the night view from my Bedroom:

Note that the Chapter Meet-up has been moved to Suite 1010 located on the top floor of the Host Hotel. I upgraded to a suite which has a large table and living room area .... and a pretty decent view over the show field and Vegas.

2016 CLC Grand National Host Hotel
Suncoast Hotel & CasinoI am in full-on pack mode and getting ready for my 5:25am flight out of RDU to Vegas Sunday and just wanted to remind everyone that I will be posting pictures, videos, etc. to the CLC Facebook group atI will also post updates, pictures of 63's and 64's, etc., here to our own GN page at www.2016GN.6364cadillac.comLooking at the picture of the host hotel above that I captured last night with maps.google the hotel will have plenty of parking! The show field is to the far right and lower right.I am hoping to get a room with a view overlooking the show field, however, the hotel parking lots are so stretched out, I will be using a zoom lens even if I do get a room on the show side! I did pick up a relatively cheap 4K sports video camera ... sort of like the go pros... and will try to get some interesting video.Safe Travels for those traveling to Vegas.Jason.

I will be posting pictures from the GN on the CLC Facebook Group. I've been panning around the Suncoast via Google Earth, Suncoast Hotel promos, etc. and posted a few pictures to the hotel. Below is one showing the hotel in all its glory at night and another showing the pool and the Nevada landscape in the background.

Ok will do. I haven't been on here much as I've been desperately trying to get my '64 on the road. On the home stretch now. I ran into a strange problem with a torque converter pilot hub being too big for the crank,but that's a whole other topic. Thanks again Jason,I'll join later this eve.

Hi everyone, ever since getting the car back on the road, the rear brakes grab when they are cold and I’m moving at slow speed. Once I get along the road and stop they are fine. I see some posts…Continue

Down to almost done, but have issue with trans linkage, when column in park shift rod 2 inches short. everything original. been trying to find picture of manual rod hooked up from under car to see position of linkage. was wondering if anybody has access for pictures. I wanted to see if my manual linkage is bent wrong out of the trans if somebody dropped the trans or something. Doesn't make sense why it doesn't work. Thanks for any input…

Torque converter grab when idling in Drive
Posted by Cliff Johnston on June 14, 2021 at 8:47pm 2 Comments 0 Likes
Hi Everyone, been quite a while since i have been on here.
I have had an issue with the idle on my 64 Coupe Deville ever since i have had it.
With the Idle set high enough that it is smooth, but still a nice idle, the RPM seems only slightly too high for the stall of the Torque Converter. And therefore it tends to sit there and grab and lunge a bit. So until now, i have been putting the car in Neutral at the lights to stop this happening.
I've had the car dyno tuned and…

Hello!
Newbie to the group here - we have already found tons of invaluable information on the board, so thanks! We are restoring a 1963 Series 62 Convertible. We are wondering if anyone knows of a source to buy the propellor yoke flange (that bolts to the pinion flange) for the driveshaft? One of our ears partially broke off. Not sure if we can buy just the yoke flange as an aftermarket part, or if it has to be rebuilt by a welder/fab guy? Maybe a salvage yard for a source? Again, any…
