Hey Jason,
Somewhere, packed away in my car files I have an original 8x10 color transparency of that same photo.
It was part of the 1964 Press Kit that went to magazine journalists (not a lot of those, back in '64) for publication. Judging by the size and quality of the film, it looks like an original, taken by a large-format view camera.
Back in the '90s, I had an enlargement made and hung it on my Motor Trend office wall.
If I run across it, I'll definitely post it. Yes, the car is Firemist Saddle.
This picture is 12" x 18' on an odd all black paper. There was no writing on it and not sure how it was taken or printed but definitely not your stock photo paper, more like a film paper ... but not a transparency of course. It is now in a frame.
I also have another promo picture that looks like the same car and taken at the same time but it is a smaller 4 1/2" x 9 1/2" size, and at more of an overhead angled shot. It is also has some "For Release" write-up below the picture and will scan it and the picture soon and share.
the 64 does not have rear fender skirts?
Pretty car and great pictures
Yep. I love the no-skirt look of the '64 Eldo. Really gives a sportier appearance to the car.
I always make the point to anyone who comments on my '64 Eldo that the no-skirt styling was Eldo-only, and 1964-only. I have not met a single person (even other "Cadillac guys") who knew that detail.
Of course, members of this site do, but it's fun trivia to tell to others.

Could someone post front and back photos of the 1963 right-hand kick panel with A/C?
My car didn’t come with the original kick panels, so it's a bit of a mystery to me how I should cut the backing board and carpet to fit around the A/C.
Many thanks,

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…
