Just ordered new tires for my 63.
As the front wheels have reasonable wear I want to align them or at least
have them aligned, but not sure if the alignment data in our shop manual
are still the right ones for the radial tires today?

Gutenberg Morgen Sammy,
camber radials: Left 0 degrees and Right 1/4 degrees
caster radials +2 degrees
toe in no more than 1/8
had mine done last month ,came out really good. Good Luck
Caster angle really positive?
For the camber it says 1/4 or 1/2 more positive on left side.
So it's different to recommendations in the shop manual.
How did you determine the values?
Guten Morgen, sorry Sammy .my German is terrible
Yes
Sammy, check out the help section,look up alignment. You’ll see that there where other members who had alignments done with those adjusted numbers that have been successful for these cars with radial tires. It worked for me

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,
-Samu

While checking my Carter carb with engine running, I took the air cleaner off and there was a very loud hissing sound of air. I placed a piece of paper over the carb and it didn’t move up or down, is this normal?
