Is it One Cadillac Pulling Two, or Two Cadillacs Pulling One!?!

I had to swap Cadillacs today to get the 1964 Cadillac Parts car on the Car Hauler to finish up, however, there was a 1963 Parts car that had to be removed first and needed to have the 63 end up where the 64 had been parked. I ended up chaining the 64 to the car hauler to be able to pull it out and get it over in the center, so I could…

Like a Kid in a Cadillac Candy Store....

I am like a kid in a Cadillac Candy Store when I am pulling these cars apart. This one was especially fun since it matches my personal 1964 CDV and several parts off this car have already found their way to 'Dino!". Weather Permitting I will knock most of this car out this weekend.  Tools are set, and I am ready to GET IT…

Edelbrock Carb Block off Plates

Posted by Chase on March 12, 2025 at 2:05pm 14 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!
