Bill, the LEDs I added to the fins are much brighter than these. I added details to that photo.

Nice job, are they the same lights you used in your tail lights?

Here are the instructions (link below) and pics. I tried embedding everything into the document but the file size was too large to attach here.

Hi Thomas, I thought I had some good pics as I did this modification but I can't find them. As soon as I get a chance I'll take some pics of the mod and write up some instruction for you.

I got the idea from my 76 Seville where the cornering lights do double-duty. No problem on the tech tip article. Let me know when.

I'm impressed. With lights off I know it looks stock, with on, you get the extra side marker lights that were adopted on all cars later in the 60's for safety.. and these look cool. Well done.

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed

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

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

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed

Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments

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?
