I did a little tutorial on the 63 right front ashtray.I saw in Jason's latest video where he mentions this as a bad design. From my experience, it's not a bad mechanical design but rather it's not an…Continue

Kurt,
Yes, I was really bummed about the GN cancellation. I was looking forward to getting together with the usual folks and the 63-64 guys and taking the 63 and my 32 to show. The annual Keels and Wheels Concours was also postponed from May until October. My 1932 All Weather Phaeton was invited to that one. I've attached a couple of pictures of both cars. The 63 has only 34k miles and would have been entered in the Primary and Preservation Classes. The 63 is triple green (basildon). Hope to see you soon.
Take care,
Ken Karrer

Upgrades for the Coupe de Ville
Posted on December 24, 2021 at 6:00pm 3 Comments 1 Like
At long last I finally have power vent windows! I started collecting the parts 3 years ago. The one thing I could not find until recently is the 6 button driver's switch. Jason finally pulled one in and was more than generous with pricing. Thanks Jason! Installing the vent window motors was the easiest part of the project but many other tasks were spawned by this project.
- There is a hole in the door panels where the window crank was. I considered putting a hub cap emblem there…

Here's something cool I stumbled across on Youtube. Pretty cool. It's like a power washer with sand.
Food Cruise
Posted on January 28, 2015 at 1:39am 1 Comment 0 Likes
A group of my car buddies & I go on a monthly food cruise, sometimes breakfast, lunch or dinner. Last Saturday we took a 40 mile cruise down country roads from Austin TX to Salado TX. We went to a shop there called City Garage that specializes in Lincolns & had lunch afterwards at a good burger joint in Salado. We've been lucky this winter with beautiful weather for the most part with just a few cold rainy days in between. Here's a little video I put together from the cruise. It's a…

Edelbrock Carb Block off Plates
Posted by Chase on March 12, 2025 at 2:05pm 14 Comments 1 Like
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…

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed
Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments 1 Like
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?
