'64 Cadillac Gear and Show Sign

Thought I would share the following with everyone...after a season of showing my '64 I started looking around to get a show sign made. I found the following site and had a custom sign made. I provided a number of photos that I had taken and the rest was up to the designer.

Leather / Vinyl repair...found a really good company!

I wanted to share the following...my interior overall is not bad and does not to be replaced but needed some TLC. At a recent car show a vendor called Fibrenew made a nice presentation and said they would come to my home and started work to repair issues with my interior and to re-dye my leather back to original. The guy really took his time and made my backseat look like new. He will be back to finish the front seat. I'm amazed at what he was able to do to fix the cracking in the leather and… Continue

New rubber door moldings....question

When replacing has anyone found the doors hard to close? I'm hoping the rubber will relax pretty quick...yes/no? I ordered the kit from Steele Rubber.

Can see daylight at the top of the door when looking out...any ideas?

I've replaced the door moulding but can still daylight when looking over at the passenger door the same goes when looking out the driver. The daylight is at the top of the door. I have to be missing another piece of rubber moulding but cannot figure out what it is. It also allows water into the car. If anyone has any ideas please let me know.

Jason, question is your leather and vinyl the same color on the inside? I'm having my interior worked on and it seems the color of the leather is on the creamy side and the vinyl is white.

Question about rubber mounts under the hood

Along the painted metal portion above the grill there are small rubber type pieces along the length of the grill that I'm assuming are to fit against the hood.  Does anyone know where to find those pieces  I have one that is missing and a couple that appear broken or torn.  I've been running into some pretty tough judges at shows.

Edelbrock Carb Block off Plates

Posted by Chase on March 12, 2025 at 2:05pm 13 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…

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?
