Well we (my son and I) have finally made it to the interior of our '63 Eldorado and thought we would find the original interior underneath the seat covers that had been installed, but instead we find an earlier reupholster job that is not done in the original design. So now we are seeking any advice, photos, etc. or information of any kind on the interior seats of a '63 Eldorado. Leads on interior shops that may be able to reupholster the seats would be great also!

Thanks for any help you may be able to provide!

Les,

Perhaps someone will have some good example interior pictures of the 63 Eldo. Mano Forsman has a few interior pictures nested among the pictures we used for the Newsletter Spotlight last year in this folder: http://6364cadillac.ning.com/photo/albums/mano-forsman-1963-eldorad...

 Way back in the day Tommy at Auto Interiors in Raleigh, NC had ordered the original fabrics for my 64 CDV from SMS and bet if you provide him (or SMS if buying material direct from them) with your trim code they can get you the original leather and other material.

Here are the 1963 Spec manual scans for the 63 Eldo. This is a scan of a reprint book and not the best quality. If you double click and click again you can enlarge and save:

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?

Vintage Air AC

Posted by Chase on March 21, 2024 at 5:55am 0 Comments

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!
