I Whipped Out My Horn and Waxed It Today!
This got some humorous replies on Facebook and wanted to share here on the 63/64 site.
I was installing the lower hood latch with all the new gold cadmium bling on my 64 Coupe de Ville "Dino" today and it was easier to just remove the optional Eldorado Horn, and thought, might as well clean and wax before I install it again. It has a lot of sheen and I'm thinking I clear coated that bad boy but need to go back and look at the pics I took when I restored it.
Anyway here is a picture of my "Holding my Horn" just after a good waxing and a couple with the lower hood latch installed:

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
