Source for Replacement Radiator for my 64 with AC
I want to replace the radiator in my 64 DeVille.
Which vendor is a good source for an OEM type unit?
Thanks

Thanks. Beautiful, fresh green antifreeze and a properly timed/tuned car. No, this is simply a case of radiator fatigue, which I confirmed with my laser temperature gauge; cool spots in a couple of places suggest blockages. Not enough to overheat the car (because it runs well and is in proper tune) but enough to cause it to run just a bit hotter than I would like. Still the original radiator, which I am first going to have boiled out, rodded out and sealed up. Then we'll see.

I think that's what I'll do just as soon as I get the car back from the body shop where it is being carefully polished out. My car does not overheat, nor does it overflow when shut off but the needle goes to just below half in traffic. All my other (properly running) Cadillacs ran at one needle width below the first quarter (admittedly, those were much newer cars but that's what i recall).

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
