Hello Everyone once again I am struggling with transmission leak. After months of inspecting, changing pan gaskets, and pans, I can definitely see a slow yet constant leak from the filler tube where it mates to the trans. Here is the problem, the tube is mounted to the exhaust manifold and upon inspection and trying to remove that bolt I fear it breaking into the block and opening a world of troubles. Without removing the filler tube, Is there any other way to replace that O ring or put some…

Hi all, can anyone tell me, "how I can tell if I have the 1 1/2" or 1 7/16" upper control arm bushings on my car, while the bushing is on the car?" Mostly every auto parts place have 2 sizes listed, I hate to get the wrong part, but I also hate to take it apart and not have the new part ready to put on. I don't have the luxury of keeping the car apart for days. Any helpful hints would be greatly appreciated. Thank Jim

Hi all, I have a question. Did anyone ever use Lakewood 24350 Polyurethane Trans Mount for a 63 caddy with a hydramatic?

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?

Hey everyone, has anybody done a Vintage Air AC/Heat setup in their car? I want to bypass the old vacuum setup and go with a Vintage Air Gen 2 model. Before I get started, does anyone have any experience with this? (Which model to go with, do’s and dont’s, etc.) It looks pretty involved. Any and all info/pics would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
