1963 Eldoado interior

Well we (my son and I) have finally made it to the interior of our '63 Eldorado and thought we would find the original interior underneath the seat covers that had been installed, but instead we find an earlier reupholster job that is not done in the original design. So now we are seeking any advice, photos, etc. or information of any kind on the interior seats of a '63 Eldorado. Leads on interior shops that may be able to reupholster the seats would be great also!

Thanks for any help…

Rochester Carby problem

OK so my Rochester is on the 57 Fleetwood not the 64 but I know I can get some feedback here on the problem... Carby went off the car and went for a refurb. Engine would not idle and the idle screw would do nothing. There was no bakelite spacer which I believe feeds the air to the mixture screw but now have installed that.  Carby back from refurb on it goes and same deal.. The idle screw does nothing and the engine blows lots of black smoke at idle (too rich I assume).. Any ideas what is…

Upholstery cost

I was rolling around town today saw an upholstery shop so thought I'd stop and talk about my 63 sdv front seat.

He said about $100/yd. @3 yards + $250 labor. 

Sound about right using the old leather?

This is a ways down the road, but just  getting ideas on cost. Also, anyone ever put cruise on one of these things(aftermarket)?

Thanks for any insight

A friend is looking for a new dash in good condition for his 1964 Series 62. His has several cracks and tears. It should be in the light blue color (code 33) if possible.

I have a question.  My 64 CDV is down for a complete paint and interior redo.  When  I disassembled the interior I found 4 hard rubber blocks under the front seat attachment bolts.  Has anyone seen this before or did someone before me put these in to raise the height of the seat.  Secondly, I was wanting to install new headlamps that would give better lighting for nighttime driving.  Has anyone had experience installing the HID lighting in lieu of the standard sealbeams?  Any advice would be…

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!

accumulator dryer

Posted by CHRIS CARLSON on December 6, 2023 at 10:54am 0 Comments

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
