Gerry Fenstermaker's 1964 Eldorado, 1975

My friend, Gerry Fenstermaker, got me interested in ’64 Cadillacs in 1974, when I moved to Los Angeles. “The Eldo’s the one to have…,” was his advice. In 1975, he bought one: a two-owner, black with black top and red interior—all original. It had about 99,000 miles on it and cost about $800. He bought it near his hometown of Allentown, PA. Originally it came from New Jersey, but the second owners kept it in their barn near Emmaus, PA, seen at the rear of these photos, which were taken when Gerry picked up the car. He drove it to L.A., used it for several months, then sold it when he became a flight attendant, which he still is. I think he sold it for $1600 to a fellow who was a restorer for the Nethercutt Collection in Sylmar, CA. I understood that this owner sold it to someone in Kansas City, and it may have worked its way back to the East. The car was in mint condition and ran perfectly in every way. Where is it now?

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
