Dash Pad Removal
I’m have a bit of a hard time removing the interior chrome windshield side moulding trim necessary to remove the dash pad. I’ve removed the screws, but the trim does not seem lose and I don’t want to force it. How do the chrome pieces actually lift out?

With bottom and top screw out, grab near the top and pull down and inward. After being installed 60 years the stick a bit, but with firm prying down and out, the inner A pillar ultimately will pop loose.

Thanks Jason. I'll give that a try.
Also, I want to pull the black and plastic Radio Face Plate (see picture). I've managed to get 5 of the 6 screws out, but one screw is impossible to see and is down near the ignition switch. It appears it can only be reached with a small open end wrench, but I just can see it. (on of the reasons I am pulling the dash cover. Any thoughts about getting that last screw out?
Do you have have a nice chrome instrument bezel available? My is okay, but it has some pitting dots. Not horrible, but not clean either.
Thanks, again.

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed

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

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 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
