Trivia Question 12 - What's Missing in the Rear Passenger Area of the Series 62 Coupes?

On the 1963 and 1964 Series 62 Coupes there is one thing in particular that is missing in the rear passenger area that is found in all the other body styles including the 1963 and 1964 Series 62 Sedans.

Hint: it is a very common item especially for 1963 and 1964.

Rear C Pillar lights?

Nope, all have rear courtesy lights:
- 1963 and 1964 Series 62 Coupes and Sedans have the courtesy light up in the C pillar.
- 1964 Coupe and Sedan de Ville have the rear courtesy light up in the C pillar.
- 1963 Sedan de Villes have the rear courtesy light on the rear door pull handle that matches the front door pull handle and courtesy light
- 1964 Coupe de Villes have the rear courtesy light on the rear qtr upper trim piece that matches the pull handle on the doors pull handle and courtesy light.
- 1963 and 1964 convertibles have rear courtesy lights in the rear qtr arm rest.
... so all body styles have rear courtesy lights.

Armrest? 

Nope.. 1963 and 1964 Series 62 Coupes have nice long side arm rests on the rear qtr interior panels, and a center pull down arm rest in the rear. (The Series 62 Coupe and Sedan does not have the center fold down arm rest in the front however).

I could give you guys a major hint but it would make it way to obvious. How about this. What is an amenity you would expect in the back of a Cadillac in 1963 and 1964?

A hot blonde nymphomaniac who's Dad owns a Pub.

Now you're talking! ... but NOPE!  Those were only special order items in Coupe de Villes with the '896' Eldo horn.  Only problem is "Dad" has a shot gun he keeps behind the bar counter! 

Did the Series 62 not have the light switch on the back of the front seat?

Nope... not it.

Speaker?

Nope.

That's OK Tiny, we all have bad days. :-)

Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments

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

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

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…
