Quick question.

On the drivers side on the front near the rad is a small steel box near wires going to the headlights, parking lights etc. It is warm all the time and clicking- even with the engine off and keys out. It looks like a transformer to me. Any ideas what is going on here?

Comment by David Cotton on July 18, 2014 at 7:34am: Thanks for the info. I agree, best to replace it

Comment by Jason Edge on July 18, 2014 at 6:37am: That's the horn relay. If in doubt replace it. I have 2 dozen + good used ones or a couple of new ones in the box (Made in USA) either for $10 and can ship in USA for $6 for a total of $16. If interested shoot me an email to jasonedge@nc.rr.com

Comment by David Cotton on July 18, 2014 at 6:19am: Horn relay might be it, but why is it warm and clicking with car off? The horn does work. Thanks for your time.

What % of 1963 and 1964 Cadillacs came with the optional "soft ray" tented glass? 1963 & 1964 were very close, so if you get one you will get the other. Need to get it within 3%. So, who will…Continue

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed

Posted by SK on June 2, 2025 at 2:20pm 2 Comments 0 Likes

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…
