Part needed transmission dipstick

Hello, I am looking for a new dipstick for the transmission on my 64. The top broke off. Not the tube just the stick. If there is a new one that will work, any idea of what to buy. Of anyone have a used one to sell? Thanks for your help.. It's almost warm enough to bring the 64 out of winter hiding!

Looking for cadillac convertible. Just not a 63 or 64

Sorry to be off,topic but I would like to add a project to my garage. I think a 1960 convertible would fit the bill. One on a working mans budget. Hard to find here in Wisconsin so I figured maybe someone on this site can find my 64 a friend. Thanks

Looking for right hand manifold and 15"wheels

Hello, winter is here again and it's time to work on the 64 deville. Looking for 4 wheels in the se Wisconsin area that accept hubcaps and a good right hand exhaust manifold. The manifold can come from anywhere. Shipping should not be too painful. I did find some wheels for $50 each locally but I am not sure if it is a good price. Thanks for your help

Turn signal switch

Looking for a source for a turn signal switch. I piggybacked the front signals off the rears because they did not work but am setting up to tow a vintage camper and would like the signals to work correctly. I cannot find a source to replace or repair the switch I have. Thanks in advance

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed

Posted by SK on June 2, 2025 at 2:20pm 2 Comments 0 Likes

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 1 Like

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…
