Re: Vacuum Leak Vibration
Ok I was wondering where the rest of the vacuum line was routed. So front footwell under the carpet (front doors) and behind the rear seat (rear doors). I just hope I don't have to pull the entire interior out. This is so frustrating, everything was working so well then this has to happen.

Hello, while my '62 has been giving me trouble free enjoyment for years now, little issues keep cropping up which I'm identifying and addressing. However this recent one has me a little stumped.

Re: Grabbing Rear Brakes
I just remembered when we were replacing the rear pads, I had a set of rear pads from my '61 parts car on which we had rebuilt and put new pads on many years ago and I had kept them in storage. When we pulled the ones from the '63 out to 're-pad' I remember telling my mechanic I want the same ones f...

Re: Grabbing Rear Brakes
Oh I wasn't aware about the springs. Yes I have 2 sets of brake rebuilding kits which include new springs so I can get them changed. However, how come it doesn't happen when everything is cold and only when it warms up and gets hot?
