"I believe all Cadillacs of the 60s and 70s came with those black-painted triangular blocks of pine.  They did in my 67, 69, and 70 cars.  I plan to take the dimensions off those and prepare a block for this 1964 car which is missing the…"

"Jason, are the wooden blocks a factory component? Mine also came with the black wood block for the tire block.  It is mega hot here this week. Perhaps repainting my bumper jack is something easy I can accomplish this week......"

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed

Posted by SK on June 2, 2025 at 2:20pm 2 Comments

Could someone post front and back photos of the 1963 right-hand kick panel with A/C?

My car didn’t come with the original kick panels, so it's a bit of a mystery to me how I should cut the backing board and carpet to fit around the A/C.

Many thanks,

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…
