the lower windshield chrome molding clips are mounted in the holes. the clips that hold the windshield in place (on my Wildcat) slip over the weld, then the gasket fits over it. this might have changed between 64 & 70. the Wildcat and LeSabre has five clips across the top and bottom and three...

I've installed a cheaper electric fuel pump on the Wildcat, feeds a 425. I just came across the Carter P60504, that has the filter - that mounts between the fuel tank and pump. The P60504 only puts out 4lbs of pressure. Is this enough for the 425? I also had a glass filter in the fuel line...

Probably leakig i the lower corners of the rear glass gasket. you just have to replace the gasket. I just did this with my 64 Wildcat. You should probably replace the trunk gasket as well. Most Buick gaskets can be found @ "CarsInc"

I got away from the cars for a bit, so I'm having trouble getting back to where I was when I pulled the old wiring harness on the 425 in my 64Wildcat. I've got the new wiring harness from the front bumper to the dash, andfrom the rear end to the dash. I installed a coil with the resistor build...

Boy, it's a good thing you can weld:bana: your welds look good. too bad you didn't make a mock up V6 outta styrofoam way back when, you could have gotten all the "fittin" done before you got the engine back. if you're going to do a disc brake (power), don't forget you need room for the...

Getting a lot of conflicting advice on whether to install a trans oil cooler outside the radiator, and just cool the engine with the radiator and the trans oil in it's own cooler. My thoughts are; the radiator will cool the engine faster/better if it is ONLY cooling the engine, an vice versa...

Heeeeeee lp; misplaced the DashPot assembly when I rebuilt the carb and dressed up the intake on my 300ci 2bbl. I've been driving the auto parts stores around here nuts. My bigggest question; does the carb really care the make/model that the dash pot switch is originally made for??? any...

Keith, grab the tip of the wire with a pair of needlenose, give er a little tug

I think you are going to find the cable is broken - when it is "hooked up" pressure is making the bitter ends meet and causing the needle to jump around. when you pulled the connector, you took the pressure off and now the cable (from the trans) is just spinning.

should be a "horseshoe" clip - I have a dash in my garage, will check and get back later

fd I'm in Virginia. I have a good running 73 455 that came out of a Skylark. I have gone through it, it purrs like a large lion. it has a T400 attached, quiet. New starter, coil, points, plugs. It is mounted on a heavy duty trailer with new tires. I've got my radiator attached to it right...

the rebuild kit should have come with an exploded view of the carb. heaven forbid someone threw that away.. was the kit mail ordered or purchased locally. if locally, ask the parts store to look at the instructions/diagram. if by mail order/online, google the supplier, get their # and call...

"starts right up and will run until the engine barely starts to warm up and it will stall" does the choke open? Have you opened the carb to see if everything is as it should be? my 64 was flooding; opened it to find a keeper clip had fallen off and was keeping the needle from closing. the...

did you compare the needles to see if they are exactly the same. the shoulder could be different, not letting it close completely, or the seat could be damaged/dirt attached. did you set the float level holding the top level upright?

I removed/replaced the windshields on both my 64s (Wildcat 4dr posted & Lesabre 4dr HT). Yes, the glass clips are the same as the Impala. I have a brand new headliner for the LeSabre, Satin Black, that we double ordered - this is made to fit. Cost + shipping if you're interested Butch 64...

I'd ask DVAP how they are going to take their's out....

I'd pull the left wheel and drum and have someone step on the brake to see what the brake cylinder is doing. sounds like something is hanging up :confused:

I got the B&M Star Shifter

64 LeSabre interior is identical. those are the only two of that year that you can swap. the 63 is different and the 65 is different. I think there are models of both that came with buckets - you just have to weld studs for the inner mount. Riveria buckets would probably fit. I have a 64...
