I have a 1963 Series 62 convertible the previous owner did away with the original rear section of the driveshaft and replaced with one without CV joints resulting in the dreaded rumble. I now have a good rear section coming that I obtained from Russ. I also have Dan's new trailing arms in hand. I will be installing them in the next week or so. My front pivot mount has two holes in it (see pic). I assume the forward hole was drilled to move the mounting forward to accommodate the incorrect driveshaft. I wanted to get a conformation from you all if possible. I would like to do this once since messing with springs always makes me a bit nervous
Thanks,

Hi Norm, when I read the title of your post I thought this may be one of those discussions not in the appropriate forum that Jason was just talking about. LOL. Anyway, you are correct, the forward hole was added and the rear is original. Good luck with your project. Even with the correct drive shaft you can get a rumble if the driveline alignment is off. Make sure the motor mounts and transmission mount are in good shape.

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…
