Welcome to The Cadillacguy100 Channel. My videos show the restoration and preservation of America's Best Luxury Car- The Cadillac. I also show local car clubs and did stray from the Cadillac Subject for a short time to show the rebuilding of my Late Fathers Ford LTD Crown Victoria. If you love Large American Luxury Cars- you have come to right place. Thanks for watching.

    The reason there is mention of cam/eccentric position is because you “CAN” install the pump on the wrong side of the cam and it “WILL” bolt up normally, resulting in breaking the tip of the pump arm off. Ask me how I know… had to change the timing set due to the arm tip snapping off and Landing between gear and chain. I never would have guessed that scenario but it’s fact. It sucked but wasn’t all bad… I went ahead and slid an Isky cam in her and she’s a bit peppier albeit still a cruiser.

    Our neighbor drove SDVs and in 80 a Seville Diesel, then a new FB every year until the early 200o's when he retired. His last one was an 06 ?SDV. They were all beautiful colors, usually the De Elegance package. he put like 80,000 miles a year as a sales rep. He told me the ride in a Cadillac was beyond compare...

Though I live in Southern California, we've had so MUCH RAIN, I haven't taken it out. We actually had an inch of rain again yesterday!

    @Cadillacguy100 Yes I've visited your site before. How is that coming along? My cadillac was bought by my parents in 1960 from a Doctor friend of theirs. I was 1 year old. Series 62 sedan sedan optioned up with power windows wonder bar radio, power antenna, and very rare Factory AC, mom gave it to me in 1982. Lifelong Southern California car, little surface rust here and there underneath, nothing else. I'm very attached to to it ! It does need another new paint job, and new upholstery, but its still decent. It's Prestwick Gray, a dark Gray, With 2 tone silver interior. Keep on that 58 you have, you rescued her!

    Happy Spring! Nice to see the 64 on the road. From a manufacturing standpoint, it would make no sense to have much different panels and mounts for the different transmissions, otherwise it would have cost money to make the Hydramatic available in the lower cost Series 62. The THM probably weighed less and operated better. Finding someone who can work on a Hydramatic must be getting harder and harder.

Plus I enjoy the process of turning something the World thinks is beyond saving into a real and dependable car again! Engine and tranny were pulled last Summer- so working on that. Welding is taking much longer than we anticipated- over four years at this point- but we at happy with the work done so far.
