SHELBY69 61 Report post Posted May 26, 2021 I have a little thin smoke from under my car. I only notice it when I’m in slow traffic. Is a little smoke normal for a 1969 car ? My 67 Jaguar E type & my 1960 Caddy Eldorado roadster don’t smoke. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rwcstang 201 Report post Posted May 26, 2021 like smoke from the exhaust or under the mid section? it could be your Transmission getting too hot, overfilled and spilling on to the exhaust or could be a bad rear transmission seal. 1 RPM reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Jaguar is the sexiest car ever designed and is my favorite. 1 RPM reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SHELBY69 61 Report post Posted May 27, 2021 I love the Caddy, great cruiser but it’s terrifying over 70 mph. Cruising at night is just magical. I added disc brakes, seat belts, AC, Bluetooth, cupholder, & LED headlights. We named her Flo after the owner of Flo’s V8 Cafe in CARS movie. 2 1 TexasEd, RPM and Mach1 Driver reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SHELBY69 61 Report post Posted May 27, 2021 the SHAGUAR is a 1967 type 1. I had to have the covered headlights. She’s really tiny. You feel like a mongoose in a herd of elephants between SUVs but she’s fast & very agile so I can slalom the elephants. Only mod I did was add Bluetooth. I had the electronics updated and she’s as reliable as a Toyota, amazing. 2 Mach1 Driver and RPM reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
copb8 97 Report post Posted May 27, 2021 Oh my gosh, I've always had a thing for a red 1959 Cadillac convertible but a very close second was the '60 and years fits the bill. I would LOVE to cruise around in that thing. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SHELBY69 61 Report post Posted July 2, 2021 Seems like the GT350 is leaking from the back of trans but only after it’s lifted up on flatbed. The new power steering is also leaking. So she’s at shop now fixing that & adding LED headlights. Adding new seats soon too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lots of steering wander but she’s a fantastic low speed cruiser. 1 JayEstes reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
