Part needed transmission dipstick

Hello, I am looking for a new dipstick for the transmission on my 64. The top broke off. Not the tube just the stick. If there is a new one that will work, any idea of what to buy. Of anyone have a used one to sell? Thanks for your help.. It's almost warm enough to bring the 64 out of winter hiding!

Ignition Advance - Engine, Vacuum and Centrifugal Distributor Advance

I have saved that "Tech Tip" as a separate standalone PDF document which you can see by clicking on

I have added a blurb about which cars are featured on the Newsletters Page.  We are getting a good selection of featured 1963 and 1964 Member Cadillacs by body styles and it is getting hard for me to remember which we featured which body style.

Turn Signals - Work sometimes

Hey Guys, my 63 SDV with tilt steering, turn signals are intermittent. The Right turn signal works every time its engaged but the ratchet does not turn it off after making the turn.

The Left turn signal doesn't always work. Its like the lever never engages the switch or something. Sometimes it works perfectly. I haven't figured out the scenario that makes it work. All turn signal lights and turning lights work as they should.

Is there an adjustment on the switch or something…

Rear Spherical Ball Joint repair - 63 SDV

Anyone out there ever replaced the rear ball joint on their Caddy?? With the gas tank vent tube so close my mechanic is a  little afraid to use a torch or grinder to cut the heads off the rivets. My mechanic had it on the lift and was going to remove the upper control yoke assembly to torch the rivets but the rear axle kept wanting to twist forward and down. He did use a jack stand under the drive line.

Anyone had any experience with this or have suggestions.

I've got…

Edelbrock Carb Block off Plates

Posted by Chase on March 12, 2025 at 2:05pm 13 Comments

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

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?
