Help with missing bolts
Hi y'all....
Hoping to get some help here. I've checked my reference material and can't seem to find this info.
My 63 convertible, non tilt steering column is missing the firewall bolts on the lower support. I'd like to put some in but don't know what size they are (looks threaded in firewall).
Does anyone know what size bolt to put through there?
Here is a pic for clarity.
Thanks in advance.
Phil

Those are 5/16"-18 raised ridge head bolts, 3/4" long, usually with an external lock washer, but have seen regular ridge head with split lock washer. There is also a wide 1 1/8" fender washer below the bolt and lock washer. I can set you up with freshly gold plated hardware for $12 ($9 after discount) and ship 2-3 day Priority from NC to WA for $10 for a total of $19. If interested email me at jasonedge64@outlook.com or just shoot me a PayPal to that email address.

Finally got around to cleaning and re-lubricating the seat transmission. Now, it works flawlessly

When I first got my 64 SDV about 8 years ago, the power seat made noise but didn't go anywhere. I promptly read up on it and proceeded to take the seat transmission out to clean and re-lubricate it.…Continue

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed

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

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…
