As my wife and I were pulling into our regular spot at the local car show, our 1964 Classic Cadillac was immediately surrounded by several people. The method in which they swarmed the car was rather alarming, as they approached with such intensity. THAT IS MY OLD CAR shouted a very excited Man. Really said I- what is your name? Sure enough his name was on the Vehicle History and a long and interesting story was soon told. He owned our car from 1977 to 1987 and was able to fill in many blanks about the old girls past. His wife promised to e-mail me a photo of how the car looked when they had it- We hope she does as we find this to be so exciting. He went on to say how happy he was that I "saved her" from certain death and destruction. It took me all Winter to rebuild her mechanically but seeing the reaction on peoples faces is a most rewarding experience indeed.

Sounds good Jason. It would be an honor to have the story of 64 SDV told. Thank you.
Plenty of time, David, but as a CLC and Chapter member we have 12 wide open months next year to do a feature story with your car. Same for all other Chapter Members. Write up a story, includes some pictures and we will spotlight your car! Next month we will be getting back to wrapping up our look at each 1964 Body styles with a look at Mark Nichols 60 Special and 62 Series Coupe. Just not sure if we will combine or do these separately in two different months. Right now I'm taking a breather on the newsletters! LOL
Wow Jason, that would be cool- now I REALLY hope they get back to me. They have my e-mail, but I don't have theirs. Will keep you posted.
That's fantastic that you reconnected with the previous owner. My wheels are turning thinking this might be a good feature story for a newsletter especially if you can get some pictures of the car with previous owner! Better yet, a picture of you both with the car would be great to go along with an article about your car!

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,

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…
