Dino Diaries - Body Mount Hardware Replacements

I started replacing the front body to frame mount fasteners with cad plated bling from my stash and have to say getting these off with fenders on car is much harder than the way I remove them when parting a car with entire front clip removed. I ended up using vice grips to hold wrench in place at bottom and zapping it with impact wrench from top. Looking at picture below you can see difference between 61 year old / 160K mile hardware vs the freshly played stuff.

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,

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.
