I got rms seal chged and all bk together. Tried to start, nothing. No lights nothing, so i got to lookong around figuring that therecwasnt but one connection elextrical. I tested battery for drainage, it was ok. I then shook a few wies to see. If i pulled something land the big one going to starter from battery i didnt hook up. It got hung up when i took it off and didnt see it when i put starter back in. Well, when shook it i hit someting and sparked pretty good. So i unhooked again, rehooked up the wire to started and hit switch. The generator light now comes on, but engine does budge. Just the gen light, and it sort of looks weak. So i cked fuses, none look blown. I took the big 40 amp power fuse out and turned key, gen light still comes on but just like with it in, the engine is silent.
So what would be next in line to check, the voltage regulator and how would you check that. Solenoid? I just dnt know enough about power to know were to look next. Thanks

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…
