Thanks Jason. My 64 is my first Cadillac out of maaany cars. I'm pretty sure I overpaid but it's mine now. I just want it to be a nice dependable driver. The engine and trans have been rebuilt and it has been repainted at least once. Still has the original red leather interior and  a white top. Currently in the process of replacing a lot of the floor and floor braces. I have had it on the road for a few months after replacing the fuel tank, lines, and pump. New radiator and complete brake system with discs up front to include a new booster and combination valve and stainless lines.

Thank you Jason! I'm back on the forum.Its been a while!

Working on my first Cadillac. 64 Convertible. 

Hello Jason,

 I just started on a restoration of my father's 1963 convertible. Searching the web for parts and information is what brought me to this group. The car has only been in my family since the day it rolled off the showroom floor. First my father's car, then my mother's when he passed, and now that mom has passed, it is mine. My dad bought the car brand new in July of '63' and I even have the original receipt for the purchase! The car has 22,006 original miles on it and has been garaged it's entire life. I am hoping to make this a driver and to get this beautiful land yacht back on the road before summer's end. Probably a long shot but hey, I figure I need goals (no matter how improbable). 

 So I am definitely at he very beginning of the project. I have the radiator out getting re-cored and the fuel tank getting cleaned and coated. The car runs but I don't think there is a single gasket or seal that's not leaking. Currently I am just trying to amass the obvious parts and get the information I need to keep the car original. I'm sure I'll be on here plenty looking for help, information and guidance so I can do this project right.

Correction,  the 62 series convertible is a 1956.

Hi Jason,

Thanks for welcoming me.  I recently decided that this era is the next one I hope to add to my Caddy collection.  I like the 60 specials and of course the Coupe DeVilles and convertibles.  I have three model 314s from 1926 and 1927, two roadsters and a dual cowl phaeton.  I believe these cars may be the largest intact collection of open Model 314s which were low production.  It's been a 38 year effort to get this far with them (it all began in 1986 after a friend found them in Oklahoma.  We bought them together but he bailed out as the restoration costs got higher than expected).  I also have a 1965 model 62 convertible and a 1940 LaSalle 50 series special coupe.  I look forward to meeting you at some point, perhaps at the Grand National?  I plan to bring my 1927 Model 314 Roadster.  Best regards.  Mike

Fun car, just dialing it in a little

Thanks! I thought I had everything set up when I joined the CLC club-apparently I missed the email verification part, my bad! Thanks for getting me all signed up, I am happy to be here!

I cant wait for spring to roll around and get some more shots of this car!

Thanks again!

I joined the Cadillac & LaSalle Club today.

Thanks for the information.
