March 19, 1964 - Date My 1964 Coupe DeVille Was Built

With the count down to my cars 50 year birthday on March 19, 2014 I thought I would post the build sheet.  I've also got an original sales slip I will scan later and post but thought I would start with the build sheet.

You can get these from the GM Heritage Center, but the ones you get today have all the Cadillacs before and after yours blocked out. I much prefer mine showing…

Question for the 75 Series Experts

I posted this on the 75 Series forum trying to help a contact and thought I would throw it out here also:

On the Body Name Plate on the 75 series I have pulled in over the years, following the word BODY is always the initials DC.  ON 62 & 63 series for the 1963's and 1964's I deal with it is[b] FW [/b]which I understood to mean it was assembled at Fisher Body's Fleetwood Plant.   

In the book "Cadillac Fleetwood Series Seventy – Five Limousines 1937 – 1987"…

7000, 600, 150, 12, 11 ...Spanning Several Hundred Contacts

Wonder what these numbers are?

Right now I average 7000 Cadillac related emails a year, 600 emails a month, and 150 emails a week, spanning several hundred contacts, members, and customers asking about parts or questions about the 1963 and 1964 Cadillacs, which includes 12 body styles in 1963 and 11 body styles in 1964.

Couple that fact with there is a general misunderstanding that '62 series', DeVilles, Fleetwoods, and Eldo's, while sharing many similar "components", are…

Website URL www.6364cadillac.com Still Down --> Use www.6364cadillac.ning.com for Now

I've been back and forth with the folks at Register.com that host the domain name www.6364cadillac.com and provide the website forwarding to the actual web address www.6364cadillac.ning.com

Bottom line it is still down and I have asked them escalate immediately and put highest priority on this ticket so hopefully we will see a fix in the near future.

In the meantime please continue to use…

Happy New Years to All of our 1963/64 Cadillac Chapter and Website Members!

I had a quiet New Year's with my wife Cheryl having to work, so I hooked up the 2nd DropCam Pro facing the other direction over the garage deck and side yard, and had Cheryl online at midnite via her iphone from work. With the drop cam she can see us and zoom around, and speak but when she speaks the recorded video drops sound. Check our quaint New Years Eve out with me on the Garage Deck and Cheryl at work talking to us via…

Sneak Peak of Parts Car and Garage

I've just upgraded my Drop Cam HD to Drop Cam Pro for surveillance outside the garage and can make it public at my discretion. I'm thinking I might take one with me to the Lake George Grand National but will need to test on some "off sit" wifi hotspots.

If you have fast broadband, I've turned the camera on the corner of the garage on a bit, which you can see by clicking on http://dropc.am/p/BQTSLH

You will see the current parts car in…

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…
