this is a '64 Cad Miller/Meteor. .030 oover 429. TH-400 instead of cast iron jetaway. 3.36:1 rear pumpkin from '64 limo instead of stock 3.77:1. 1--leaf rear springs, 26 gal Cad tank sits on top of factory 20 gal tank and feeds fuel pump by eectric cross-over operated by underdash switch. manual windows conmverted to power (even Vents) door locks now electric. tilt-wheel, now has AM-FM factory radio and correct power antenna. recently converted fron drums to disc keeping original master cylinder and booster. Wheels are '57 Cad El Dorado Sabres (Turbines) with 7.23R15 light truck tires. Lots of little extras too numerous to mention. Used to be my daily driver, now I only drive it 2 or 3 times a week and for trips. Hearse tiops the scales at 6720 lbs. and I ran the 1/4 at Pomona in 17.040 the first run and 17.010 in the second run. Trailer is work in progress and was '64 MM hearse; its axle is straight tube out of '75 El Dorado.
