Interior Work- 63 SDV
Well I finally made the jump and had some work done on my interior. Thought I would share a pic of the cover my upholsterer punt on my dash. It was cracked in several places with the ugly foam showing. Seemed like every time I touched it, I put a new crack in it. I think it turned out well for a driver. Anyway- no more ugly cracks. They did have to put a seam on the underside around the instrument cluster and one leg. But, it didn't cost me a $grand +.

Very Discreet...looks factory and you would not know otherwise. Looks 1000% better than a cracked dash!

Here's a pic of where they put the seams on my dash when they recovered it, just an FYI. Guess its time to put the lower dash cover back on.

I had my interior work and dash done at Fat Cat Speed and Upholstery shop in Topeka Ks. It cost me $350. I was happy with the work they did.
Makes driving the old girl much more enjoyable. Also, not quite as embarrassing as the cracked dash and ripped up seats and carpet.

The 64 hood V is considerably bigger than the 63 hood V, and one of the many things I have not done in dealing with these cars on the last 3 decades was to do a direct comparison. Someone asked about…Continue

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed

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

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
