April 2013 1963/64 Cadillac Chapter Newsletter Posted

 

I have just completed and posted the  April 2013 1963/64 Cadillac Chapter newsletter to our Newsletter Page.  You can also access it by clicking on April 2013 Newsletter.

This newsletter includes my director's message, chapter updates, website improvements, links to upcoming car related events, and a really interesting article by John Leonard on installing a 6.2 liter L92 sourced from an Escalade and 6L80E 6-speed automatic into a 1964 Eldorado!

In addition, as we continue to celebrate the Golden 50th Anniversary of the 1963 Cadillac, we look at the DeVilles this month and have a member spotlight and story by Doug Meloan with his 1963 Coupe DeVille, include more scans from the original 1963 Cadillac Brochure and Dealer Data Book.

I hope to have the next newsletter out mid to late May, and plan to include a spotlight on a 1963 Park Avenue currently undergoing restoration.

I have added 6 more pictures of Doug and Elaine's 63 CDV to the Cadillac Spotlight and moved the photo spotlight box to upper right corner of the screen.  Be sure and check out his story in the April newsletter.

We will continue to spotlight 1 member and their Cadillac each month as we roll out the red carpet...or is that the gold carpet... in our 50th Year Celebration of the 1963 Cadillac!  Next year the 1963's will take back seat as our focus shifts back to the 64's.  Of course we all love both years equally....RIGHT!

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!

Who rebuilds original AC  accumulator dryers for 1964 Cadillac? I have been on Classic auto air in Tampa FL wait list for over a year ,  There is one on Old air products web site that looks very similar to the original # 21-4214A but states it fits 1962 Gm cars, The one recommended for a 1964 Cadillac is half the length 21-4215A    What  is everyone using ? I would prefer to be as original as possible. Thanks

'63 Eldorado trumpet horn + 2 standard horns restoration

Posted by Les Eastling on November 15, 2023 at 10:34am 1 Comment

My son, unbeknownst to me, had all three of the horns on our 1963 Eldorado completely restored. We had recently added the Eldorado trumpet horn to the two standard horns and the sound was not very good... we had heard good ones so we knew something was not right... but there was not much we could do to get better sound from the 3 horns. 

There is a restoration service called The Horn Works who my son…
