Stupid question of the day.  I know that the 6 window sedan has an extra set of stationary vent windows in front of the B pillar, and the 4 window sedan just has the front vent windows.  I  have never figured out which windows they are referring to in order to come up with the 4 and 6 numbers.  I know someone will ask me the question sooner or later when my car is displayed at shows as a 6 window sedan, and I really don't have an answer to that. It seems to me that the 4 window actually has 3 windows on each side, and the 6 window actually has 4,

Hmm, good question. My guess is that the stationary windows in the rear are considered "windows" and vent windows are not. Fleetwood 60 Specials actually have vent windows in the rear but that model is not a "6 window sedan". 

I saw this in the newsletter Jason recently posted. The fixed position rear quarter windows are the 2 additional windows .

Thank-you, Kurt.  That's the info I was looking for.  I did read the newsletter, but missed that important point.

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed

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

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…
