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?

Edelbrock Carb Block off Plates
Posted by Chase on March 12, 2025 at 2:05pm 13 Comments 0 Likes
Hey guys,
I have installed the same Edelbrock carb and have done everything the same as Jason’s carb and intake project. In the spring and summer months the car starts, runs and idles great! In the fall and winter months on a cold start, the car starts awful and wants to die until it warms up. I have to keep my foot on the throttle until it warms up or it will idle just terrible and try to die. Once it’s warm, it runs fantastic! Whats going on here? I was thinking of removing the…

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?
