Additional Links in Website Header

Since I didn't want to have too many rows of links, I have added additional sub links under some of the main header links up top. For example,  if you wanted to check out our Chapter Shirts, you would hover your mouse cursor over the 63/64 Chapter link which then opens up a drop down box with the following links:…

1964 Series 60 Special, No Heat, BRRRRR!

Hi all and Happy Thanksgiving.

Driving the Big Blue Girl the other day and noticed I am not getting any heat. Took the heater control valve out and got a little movement out of it when applying vacuum. Seemed a little corroded but not bad. With the hand held vacuum pump, {self bleeder}, I was blowing through the unit and it did open and close.

I put it back in and noticed not much to no vacuum coming from the red vacuum line to the top of the diaphragm whether on 65 or…

63 Tail Fin Assembly Gaskets

I removed the tailfin lamp assemblies on my 63 (was not easy getting that top bolt out in the tip of the fin) to have them re-chromed.  The rubber gaskets  where the plastic lenses snug up against are not bad and could be reused but the gaskets where the chrome housing meets the body are in poor condition and I was wondering if anyone knew of a supplier for these.  If not has anyone had any luck trying to re-produce them? Any advice would be most welcome.  Thanks.

'63 Cadillac battery cables

Hello everyone,

Want to check my understanding of the battery cable hook up for my '63 Cadillac.

I have the negative cable connected to the negative post... then bolts to the frame just below the battery.

The positive cable connects to the pos post and then to the starter connection.     Also the felt washers are to be soaked in oil before installation onto the bat posts per the shop manual... anyone do this anymore?

Heading out to Carolina Collector Auto Fest

Will be heading out to the last car show of the year at the Carolina Collector Auto Fest at the NC State Fairgrounds & Historic Dorton Arena in Raleigh, NC in about an hour.  I've been full blast getting my interior out and some problem areas addressed for the past 2 or 3 weeks and looking forward to driving and enjoying the car again. I really doubted I could have it ready in time for the car show and meetup with our Eastern North Carolina CLC Region members, but got er done just in…

Running Rough

I recently completed a complete engine rebuild on my 64 CDV.  I have a continuing problem (both before and after the rebuild).  When I am stuck in traffic and the car begins to run real hot, but not overheated,  the car runs very rough and will stall out unless you are able to make it out to open road in which it will sputter a bit, but begin to run perfectly once the operating temp drop down a bit.  I have replaced the carb at a different time from the rebuild and it made no difference, the…

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,

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! 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…
