I can't believe I never noticed that! There are so many little details on these cars, it's hard to remember them all.

far left forward part of the dash. See picture below:

You did a nice job prepping that rear before installing it. I'll definitely need some tips from you to get mine looking that good. But speaking about that sentinel, where is the photocell on the dash?

Speaking of the gold Caddy and the posi rear end here's a picture of it going in:

The convertible I'm taking down has sentinel and forgot to try it out before I started dismantling it...not that the car was every running when I brought it in, but could have still probably tested it with a charge on the battery. I think I may definitely put it asside for the Gold Caddy which came with the guidematic auto dimming but was bypassed long before I got the car. The auto dimming is definitely one option I don't want to restore! Sentinel was cool...and really worked well on the red SDV, both in the delay in turning off and in the turning on at dusk and off at dawn via the dash photocell.

Haha I love the sentinel light. People can't believe anything like that existed in 1964 when I use it. I stopped using mine since it started flickering on and off once in awhile. I still haven't figured out what's wrong with it. You have to be a contortionist to get under that dash.

Can't remember if this one had posi. The gold CDV does as I swapped one in a few years back. I know the red sdv had a perfectly working sentinel light control. It freaked people out when I would leave the car with the lights on... Especially in 30 seconds or whatever I had it set to and they turned themselves off!

She's a real beauty. This was the one with the posi? Very cool.

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed
Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments 1 Like
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 1 Like
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!
accumulator dryer

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
