Tom & Kathleen Bahner’s 1963 SDV on 2024 CLC Kansas Driving Tour

On the 2024 Cadillac & LaSalle Cadillac & LaSalle Club National Driving Tour in Kansas, we have one 63/64 Cadillac Chapter member car on hand, Tom & Kathleen Bahner’s 1963 Four Window Sedan de Ville and of course as Director of the Chapter I have to share some pictures of this lovely couple and gorgeous car! These pictures were taken today in Marquette.

Thank you Jason. It was great to finally meet you face to face. You definitely showed your dedication by traveling over 1200 miles to attend. Thanks for all you do for our Chapter and the CLC. This was our first driving tour and it was a blast. Very well organized with some sites we haven't been to in years and also sites we've never been to. 

Tom and Kathleen

Hi Tom,

     Just saw the pictures Jason just posted of the Driving Tour in Kansas.  I have to say that your car is beautiful and the pictures turned out great.  Great pictures and a great 63/64 Chapter!

Hi Tom, Left host hotel today and sitting on bed in Kansas City and will be slowly making my way back to NC in the next 3 days. It was a lot of fun hanging out with you and Kathleen and hope to see you two at one of our 2025 CLC events.   It was actually 1300+ miles each or 2600 miles round trip, but worth every drip of gas to have this much fun. For any of you that have not attended a Grand National or National Driving Tour, you really do not know what you are missing.

I am trying to replace the front wheel cylinders on my 63 SDV and can't figure out how to get a wrench on the bolts holding them on. Does the backing plate have to come off and if so, how? Thank you…Continue

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?
