New steel brake line ROUTING. I cant remember where on my 1964 Convertible

I am installing new stainless brake lines and can't remember how to correctly route the main longest line through the X frame area.

Please send photo's if anyone has any?

Thank you in advance

Hi Don,

You can find detailed photos in the Nov 2015 Newsletter featuring Neil Gray’s 64 Eldorado frame off restoration. You find even more pics on this site:

But I don’t think it’s possible to change the longest stainless brake line over the frame without lifting the body off first. At least I was not able to do that.

Samu,

Thank you very much for your help.

I did loosen the body bolts and removed a few and it made  three inches more room.

It seems that these Cads have hidden secrets

Excellent photos on Neil Gray"s newsletter

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed

Posted by SK on June 2, 2025 at 2:20pm 2 Comments

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,

-Samu

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?
