"Norm. that was the best/only photo showing blockage from inside. I am pretty sure it is not a moving flap as they would quickly weaken and come apart and more of a seal between metal parts/doors. I am guessing stacked to the metal with small staples…"

"One more thing, Jason: Where does that shield go? Is it a flap that moves back and forth, or is it a blocker of some kind. What I am asking is if I can reach it somehow would it be wise to just remove it? Or would removing it interfere with air flow…"

"Norm,      If anyone would know, it's Jason.  Best of luck with the shield.  I have never tackled that.  I hope it works!  At least the duct work is good. Dennis DiBari"

"Thank you, Kurt. I've done that and the mode doors are working, just the volume of airflow is diminished at every setting. Heat comes out  below, defrost comes out properly, and AC  comes through the vents-just that the volume of flow…"

Kurt replied to Norman Silverman's discussion Why is the air stream of my 1964 CC system weak-even though the blower is blowing strongly?
"Could be the mode doors. If they are not opening & closing as they should, the air will come out everywhere instead of just AC vents, or heater or defrost. Pull the glove box liner & run the the system with the engine running (needs vacuum…"

Why is the air stream of my 1964 CC system weak-even though the blower is blowing strongly?

Hello AllI may have posted this before, but I was distracted by health issues and am now just getting back to trying to figure this out: The air stream (whether heat/def/AC) is weak, even thought I hear the blower churning really strong. Any clues?ThanksNormSee More

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed

Posted by SK on June 2, 2025 at 2:20pm 2 Comments

Could someone post front and back photos of the 1963 right-hand kick panel with A/C?

My car didn’t come with the original kick panels, so it's a bit of a mystery to me how I should cut the backing board and carpet to fit around the A/C.

Many thanks,

Edelbrock Carb Block off Plates

Posted by Chase on March 12, 2025 at 2:05pm 14 Comments

Hey guys,

I have installed the same Edelbrock carb and have done everything the same as Jason’s carb and intake project. In the spring and summer months the car starts, runs and idles great! In the fall and winter months on a cold start, the car starts awful and wants to die until it warms up. I have to keep my foot on the throttle until it warms up or it will idle just terrible and try to die. Once it’s warm, it runs fantastic! Whats going on here? I was thinking of removing the…
