Dash Pad Caps
I sold one a a few years back and there was some discussion on these on the CLC site and thought I would upload some pics. I think they are OK as a cheap, quick temporary solution until you either have yours repaired or find a nice original.

I sold the dash cap posted above a while back but remember searching around the major suppliers and finding them. If someone finds a good supplier I will put a link to them on our Parts Suppliers page.

The black piece is the dash cap. It will not win you an origional concours award but good for a quick fix. Someone called them "junk" on the CLC site but indicated that is subjective and depends on what you want to get out of it. I wanted to post pictures. that way anyone can make up their own mind. You can see it is a dash cap, but all painted the same cover is not a bad alternative to spending 1/2 a grand at somewhere like Just Dashes or a couple hundred for a nice original. I have a very nice original 64 for sale, and no dash caps for sale and have no vested interested so was just trying to offer my observations.

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…
