I know these flower cars don't come around very often, so I thought it was worth the post. I came across this one on craigslist in New Jersey.

Ya baby. Strip the back and put a camper on it.....Luxury RV
Turn it into a beverly hillbillies truck. Granny sitting on the top. .....Or use it as a tow truck....
That car will sell fairly easy. There is a huge following for pre 65 hearses, and flower cars are coveted. To modify a car in that condition, would be like turning a 63 split window vette into a ice cream truck.
Ice cream truck... now you're using your noggen. But all kidding aside.... I would really like to have a matching pair.....hearse and flower car.
Always like seeing the professional cars, and the flower cars are always cool. Love the rear side door access. Based on very rough condition I would say they are asking at least 3 times market value. To do a complete full restoration you will easily sink $20 to 40K in the car. Go concours and spend more. While we are on the flower car topic I like this blog I saw on Hemmings where Airstream tried to combine hearses and flower cars at one point!
* Apparently, Airstream at one point in the 1980s tried to market its RV as a funeral coach, designed to transport the deceased and family and flowers all at once from the funeral home to the cemetery. Because nothing puts the fun in funeral more than sittin’ on top of a casket in a motorhome. (via) - See more at: http://blog.hemmings.com/index.php/category/service-vehicles/hearse...

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,

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…
