exhaust resonator

Hi guys,I purchased what I thought was a complete exhaust system from Classic Exhaust 3 or 4 years ago and put it in the garage without opening the box when it arrived and just now getting to it and found that there is no resonator.My question is what is the purpose of the resonator and do I really need it.

Cadillac Chrome

Just wondering if anyone has had their 63 or 64 Cadillac Bumpers re-chromed? What should I expect to pay for show quality? I would like to have a ball park price, as I will get several estimates. Mine have dents, but luckily no rust. I realize rust repair and welding would add to the cost. Thanks for any input.

1964 Heater Core Replacement Question-Non AC

Just a quick question about the Heater Assembly. I have been following the manual, but still have a question. I have the glove box removed, the bowden cables taken off, and the section under the hood removed. I am having difficulty in seeing where the Heater assembly is attached. Once this is taken down, I will have access to the old core. Any info or pics on this would be much appreciated.

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,

-Samu

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?
