I'll leave it to more knowledgable people to answer.
Sounds like we shouldn't ever operate the power windows and the top at the same time. (Common sense, too.) "

My Eldo is nut-and-bolt restored, but has the 2.94s, so I was interested in the condition of your parts.

Help a couple in their 80s with a Cadillac???
Posted on March 7, 2014 at 12:16am 0 Comments 0 Likes
There is a couple in their 80s about ready to celibrate their 50th wedding anaversery. Their son saw my 63 Cadillac in San Diego and he is trying to find a 1960-1964 Cadillac in Las Vegas in the spring for a ride. Why? It seems these couple had a 1962 Cadillac when they were married 50 years ago. The son wants to do something nice for them and find “the car” to take them to a nice dinner or show.
If you have a nice Cadillac in Vegas, I would like to connect you…

Transmission swap on a 1963
Posted on June 28, 2013 at 3:05am 1 Comment 0 Likes
My Jetaway in my 1963 convertible is giving me problems....again. It has 10K on a rebuild. The transmission has been a problem some years and I have a lot of money into it. I have not found a good transmission guy, so I am thinking.
Does anybody have specific parts and instructions for a 700R transplant?? I am thinking that I might just get rid of the Jetaway and the headaches from the thing.
Any Ideas???

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 1 Like
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!
