Jason Coupe DeVille Resto: Interior Pieces Out for Some Upholstery Work and Painting

Two interior issues being addressed on my 64 CDV:

While I was off work this week I removed the bench seat to have new fabric sewn on the back bottom of seat, and to fix a missing button and add some new padding.  Along with the seat, I also took the arm rests that need to be redyed and some cracking on my left driver side arm rest. I also might see about dying that gear shift lever cap sandalwood.

For the paint shop, I removed all the items that unbolt from the dash including…

Given Up on 3rd Bay - New Shelving Installed

I have tried to keep at least 2 bays in my 3 bay garage open and still get to all of my tools, packing materials and parts I keep in the main downstairs garage area. I have given up on parking a 3rd car in there, and instead of just keeping things stacked in the 3rd bay, decided it was time to get some decent shelving.  I had built a 4' x 6' work table some time and also store items under it, but it was not doing the job alone!

I looked around and found a commercial grade 2' x 6.5' x…

Grandma's Shred Kettle

I have a large 26" wide Kettle that my grandma use to make her lye soap in (only during a full moon by the way), and have held on to it as I have most of the other family stuff passed on to me, and put this mammoth kettle to use as my Shred Kettle!  For flat rate boxes I like to use shredded paper and the kettle works out great for keeping shred and wide enough for most flat rate boxes I can pack right from the top and not worry about making a mess. I am off this week and was up early…

The Worlds Toughest Bridge

Remind me not to get behind any tall trucks going under this bridge in Durham, NC with my 64 Caddy. This was sent to me by a email via a Caddy contact and seems there is a lot of video out there on this often hit bridge just down the road from me:

Timing Chain ( & stuff)

Thinking of doing the timing chain on a 64 and I did a search on the message board without to much success as to previous posts. I would assume that there are many words of wisdom that should be followed by the many individuals (smarter and more experienced than I) that have done this before. Questions such as: Should I, as a matter of course, just replace the gears (timing chain set) since they are nylon teeth.... All info is greatly appreciated and Thank you in advance.

Reverb

Hello Everyone, My 64 Convertible has the am/fm radio with a speaker in the front dash pad and in the rear seat. I would like to add the GM style reverb kit. I found a switch with attached wires at a garage sale in a coffee can of parts from a 64 Buick for $2.00 I see how it could attach to the speakers but I don't know if it then attaches to the radio or there is a special box I don't know about that the whole then goes to then to the radio. Anyone have any info about…

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
