Classic/Antique Car Repair: Vacumn hose layout for 1963 Caddy heater, ac system, ebay


Question
I am doing some work on a 1963 Caddy 4 door I think its a Deville.
I was after a Vac hose layout for the heater and ac system. All the old hoses are perished and have fallen off the vacumn connector under the dash. From the vac switch on the heater control they are ok, Some of the hoses have colour markings but some are just black. Was wondering if anyone has access to a schematics?
I am in Australia so info is hard to come by
Thanks
David

Answer
The only way to get this information is from the factory service manual for the car.  These are also called the "shop" manual in some ads.  The best way to get yourself one of these is to watch for one on eBay.  You can also get one from a literature dealer like Ed Faxon, but that will cost about 3 times as much, and will probably be a reprint rather than an original.  The originals have much clearer photographs.  If you are going to be working on this car, you'll be way ahead of the game if you get yourself the manual, as it will tell you everything about car in great detail

I have quite a few of these manuals myself, but I don't have any on the 63 Cadillac - so I can't help you directly - sorry.
