Can you provide details on the rebuild & upgrade. Does it now have bluetooth & all the bells & whistles?

Hi Kurt,

Yes, it has bluetooth with an external mic for hands free phone use, subwoofer out jacks, aux input...all the bells and whistles.   It was a bit pricey.  With shipping and tax it was $800 (Don't tell my wife, she'll have my head! ;-) 

I had it done at R & B Vintage Radio in Juliet, Tennessee.  There are several different packages available.  Richard is the owner.  Here's the website link:   https://www.randbvintageradio.com/

Mike,

     You deserve it!!!!

Very nice. I've heard about those upgrades. After you test drive it a while, let us know how you like it. I need to upgrade the stereo in mine. I have a Secret Audio in mine but it is now 20 years old and obsolete. I left the original AM radio installed in the dash. It still controlls the power antenna. 

Hiding the price from your wife reminds of a joke I heard: This man tells his friend "If I happen to die unexpectedly, don't let my wife sell these parts for what I told her I paid for them" LOL

I ran the new upgraded radio wiring today. The original harness won’t work, except for the power antenna. Now on to new dash paint and new chrome!

It looks great Mike.  A lot of work, but well worth it!

Looks great, I may do that to mine.

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!

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

'63 Eldorado trumpet horn + 2 standard horns restoration

Posted by Les Eastling on November 15, 2023 at 10:34am 1 Comment

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…
