WTD 1964 Sedan Deville w/all options 20k
1964 Sedan Deville with the original 429 engine and TH400 transmission. Engine has approximately 91k miles on the odometer and runs very well. I've replaced the plugs with NOS AC44 plugs, replaced the wires, fuel lines, and a few other components within the engine bay to ensure reliability. The engine starts up well and runs very smoothly from 10 mph up to 100 mph. The transmission shifts very well and she'll smoke tires if you lay into her from a dead stop. This car can easily make a road trip…See More
"You are welcome, Tim. You are correct, the rubber boot will not fit on the replacements. If you can't find them, this is a good alternative.
Dennis"
"I'd prefer to source an original or NOS if possible. I'm not sure the rubber boot will fit on those. Worse comes to worse I'll grab them. Thank you for the suggestion but I'm a stickler for OEM or original :)"
"Hi Tim,
I replied to your message 11 hours ago on the site. Take a look and see if what I wrote helps you out. I think it will. Write me if any questions arise.

"Is it as simple as the switch? Any sources for the original two connector type?"
"Jason I tested that and one side worked (dash courtesy lights) but the other terminal (just have two) had no spark or didn't do anything."

"Hi Tim,
Like you, I had a problem with the courtesy lights for the driver's door. Those switches were originally grounded to the metal frame (they loosen over time). I decided to replace the switches and got a…"
"The courtesy light switches are bad for going bad. All they do is take the circuits to ground and are easy to test. Just pop switch out, and unplug each of the 3 wires (2 or 3 wires) and touch each to the rim of metal. Each light circuit (e.g. dash,…"
"For 895 it was worth it. Trying to source the original leather from SMS would be time consuming and pricey. Besides its only original once!"
"Wow! Very impressive! This is something I didn’t know existed! Very cool, congrats!"

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed
Posted by SK on June 2, 2025 at 2:20pm 2 Comments 0 Likes
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,

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?
