Disassembled, cleaned and greased the transmission.
Disassembled and cleaned all contacts on the switch. Verified 12v gets to the…

Well, I've had this ol Deville a couple months now and thought I'd give and update. I've learned a lot from this forum and its members. Jason, Russ, and others have got me over the hump on a bunch of occasions. Thanks all, hope you don't get tired of me asking questions. Hope I don't bore you too bad.

I found this rather beat up trophy in the trunk of my recently purchased 63 4window. The previous owner had no history on it, or much on the car. He had owned it for 11 years and never did much with it except put a cheap paint job on it. Orig color was Benton Blue but its currently a little more blue that.
The trophy says Cadillac Club International - 1st…

Man, this thing's really making me feel stupid. What air filter are you all using for you 63 Caddy?
I've tried several at my local parts supplier and none seem to be quite tall enough. Wix calls for 42080 but it don't seem right. The old filter is right at 3.25" high and most I've found are 3.04" or so. Too much gap at the top when its screwed down. The number on the decal on the air cleaner is A 96 C. Do I have the correct cleaner housing?
Also, been researching drive train…

I've got a couple questions for those in the know.
What years Cad V hood ornament will interchange? One point is broken on mine. Anyone have one?
OK, so I must be just dumb. How the heck do you get the driver door panel off?. I know there's screws on the bottom, nails on the sides. I can get the control panel up to disconnect. Inside door handle? etc?
Also, the wiper/washer motor and switch - what years interchange?
Thanks for any help.

Needing some electrical help. My old '63 Sedan DV electrical system is not in the greatest shape.
A current MUST is wipers, as they don't work at all.. I'm waiting on a shop manual but it will be a week or so before it arrives. I't appears the washer and wiper motors are one unit, I'm guessing at all this stuff. With the key on and the switch on, ,I'm getting 12v to one side of the 2 wire plug, which I assume is the washer and to the middle contact on the 3wire connector, which I…

Hello all, thought I would introduce myself. Tom Bahner here in Rossville Ks. Hope I'm posting this in the correct place, if not let me know. Absolutely love the looks of these old ledsleds.
Was happy to find this chapter as I have just become the owner of a 63 Sedan DeVille. She's pretty rough but being on a retired budget, was one I could afford that actually ran and drove. I thought about having it hauled the 3hr.trip home but decided to roll the dice and drive her home. PO…

I meant to make this a priority over the winter and didn't get that far. I've tried to source all the parts individually, but that is a daunting task. Partly because I don't want to miss any…Continue

Hello, possibly looking a neutral safety switch for a 1964 Deville with the TH-400 and tilt steering. Also, possibly looking for an oil filter housing assembly for a 1964 429 motor. Starting to get…Continue

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…

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?
