390 engine available

If anyone has a need for a decent running 390 (trans available as well, but needs work), out of a 63, I have one available in the state of WA. I know it's frowned upon by some, but I'm completing an LS swap so these items are available.

Compression

Cyl 1-195

Cyl 2-180

Cyl 3-200

Cyl 4-185

Cyl 5-205

Cyl 6-185

Cyl 7-185

Cyl 8-187

Shortly before deciding on this, I had also refurbished my fuel tank, and that is also available.

Pics attached...more available if requested.

Let me know if interested.

Prices negotiable

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed

Posted by SK on June 2, 2025 at 2:20pm 2 Comments 0 Likes

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,
