Every year or so I pull pictures off my wife's iPhone and organize them in folder by date. I have been pulling them off but behind on organizing them. Here is one I thought was funny where she caught me standing on the tailgate of the Escalade taking a picture of the 429 engine I had just rebuilt. Picture is kinda fuzzy but thought it was funny nonetheless.…

ContinueThanks 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.
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

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!

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?

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

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…
