    CADILLAC DEALER STICKER/CODES

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Jaxops,

    Have you checked the Cadillac Database (http://www.car-nection.com/yann/) or contacted its curator, Yann Saunders (yannsaunders@yahoo.com)? Another place to try would be the GM Heritage Center (formerly known as "Cadillac Historical Services"). Their address is:

    GM Heritage Center

    Attn: Cadillac Archives

    6400 Center Drive

    Sterling Heights, MI 48312-2609

    It's my understanding that window stickers as we know them today did not come into being until the late 50s, but I could be wrong on this.

    Hope this is helpful,

    Jeff Hansen

    Residential development for car people in the Carolinas?

    I forget the name of the place, but it is about 8 miles east of Lenoir, NC. Lenoir is about an hour north of Charlotte. I want to say the name is "Hawk Hill" or "Hawk's Hill" but I'm not sure that is accurate.

    Bill Edmunds, Hornets Nest Region AACA member and current president of the Cadillac-LaSalle Club is a resident there. I'm sure he'd be happy to tell you about the place. His email is: President@cadillaclasalleclub.org

    Hope this is helpful.

    starter problems 48 Buick

    I cannot stress enough the importance of making sure ALL of the electrical grounds in the starting circuit are tight, clean, and free of all paint and rust. THIS IS CRUCIAL! <P>One spot that is often overlooked is the metal to metal connection between the starter solenoid and the starter housing. Make sure this area is clean and paint free.<P>Also, don't forget the metal to metal connection where the starter attaches to the engine block or bellhousing. Make sure your engine ground straps are intact and connections are clean.<P>Anything you can do to aid the current flow is going to help you.<P>I recently helped a friend with the exact same problem on his 1947 Cadillac convertible. We went through the starter, the solenoid, and all of the connections. The starter now spins faster than ever -- hot or cold -- with no speed degradation when hot.<P>Good luck!<BR>Jeff Hansen<p>[ 06-27-2002: Message edited by: Jeff Hansen ]

    Tuesday started out to be so promising...my oldest son's 7th birthday! A happy occasion that I took the day off for so that I could take him to school and share in his joy. He opened his presents at the breakfast table and smiles were all around.<P>Once he was deposited safely in his classroom and I was back in my car did I learn of the tragedies unfolding.<P>My son will never forget his 7th birthday -- and for all of the wrong reasons.<P>I am not a religious person, but I fear for the children. Not just those in the United States, but all over the world. Especially in areas where hate is handed down from generation to generation.<P>Thanks for letting me write this. I've been meaning to get it off of my chest.<P>Jeff

    Bill,<P>I share in your joy, as I'm in the middle of the same process with my '42 Caddy limo. The car came home from the body shop this past Saturday with a fresh coat of black paint and looking spectacular. Sunday, we got it running for the first time in a good 12 years.<P>I also like the progress reports you've done on your web page. I'd do the same if I had the time!<P>Keep us all posted!<BR>Jeff

    Bry,<P>I'd suggest dropping by the Cadillac LaSalle Club's website and posting your questions on our message board as well as here. We also have several 1960 Cadillac technicians listed on the site. They'd be good resources to bounce questions off of.<P>Hope this helps you out!<P>Jeff Hansen<BR>CLC Webmaster and AACA member

    Ron, is what Briggs-Stratton/the AACA member did a legitimate thing according to AACA by-laws?<P>Inquiring minds want to know!<BR>Jeff<P>[Posted this at about the same time HVS posted his reply...don't mean to beat a dead horse, and from what Howard said, this DOES sound legitimate!

    1954 Annual Meet

    Dan,<P>It has been my understanding that the original meets prior to moving to Hershey were held at the Devon Horse Show in Devon, PA just outside of Philadelphia.<P>Not sure what you have, but it sure sounds interesting!<P>Jeff

    The Chocolate field was such a night and day difference from the Yellow field that it was unbelieveable. There was some mud on the Chocolate, but NOWHERE near the conditions on the Yellow. Most of the Chocolate field was just wet. Water flows down hill and it sure did in this case!<P>Jeff
