The Carolina Region Newsletter & Joining Local Regions
Years before there was an Eastern NC CLC Region I had joined the Carolina CLC Region which is based in Charlotte and the western part of North Carolina. Well, I was a member on paper only as I never made it out to any meet-ups. In 2006 the Eastern NC CLC Region was formed and I was at the very first meet-up at McCalls Restaurant in Clayton, NC on Feb 25, 2006 and have been active off and on in our own Raleigh and Eastern NC based region.
With an increased desire to participate in more "in state" car shows and be more active with other CLC regions I've recently rejoined the Carolina region and have to say President Greg Power and Newsletter Editor Travis Dowell have been very welcoming. I sent them some pictures of my car in the recent Classics At The Captial car show in Raleigh, NC which they featured in their latest newsletter which you can see by clicking on Carolina Chronicles - October, 2012.
I have to save I'm really excited to be attending my first meet-up with the Carolina Region on Oct 20 in Lenoir, NC and know it will be a great time. For any of you that have not joined the Cadillac LaSalle Club or a CLC region I encourage you to check out their informative and fun newsletter and see what you might be missing. Being part of the 63/64 Website and/or Chapter gives us immediate online connectivity with each other, but there is nothing like actually meeting up with your local region members and showing off those Cadillacs.
I'll also say that I'm also always looking for ideas for our newsletters and love the many pictures and stories in the Carolina Region and other newsletters. My wife was impressed that they have a recipe section in their newsletter which, along with the members stories, and many pictures really makes it an inclusive club type club. I could go on and on but do encourage you all to join the CLC, join a region, and join our chapter and become a more active member!

That Carolina newsletter was pretty great. I LOVED the photos of the 1960 Cadillacs there. I really like that model a lot. Regarding ideas and contributions to the newsletter, I have had my Cadillac in 2 shows so far this season and will be in a third on Sat., October 6th in Chevy Chase, MD. I will be writing about my show experiences and prepping for shows as I want to get ideas on how to best prepare for a car show (whether you are judged or not). Who knows. This may be good enough for a newsletter article. It will not be technical but it may incite conversation. Thanks, Sam Jackson

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed
Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments 0 Likes
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!

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 0 Likes
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…
