Do you know how your gasoline is - condition wise? Do you have water in the gas? When it runs all over itself, it could be bad gas or dirt in the line. A clogged needle and seat might also cause some of…"

Hi All, I finished my 429 transplant (Still a 429) last fall and cannot get the car to run correctly. The carburetor, a stock Rochester 4gc was fully dismantled and cleaned and put back together. car starts and roughly idles but when you put in drive it runs all over itself and will sometimes dies.

A/C car swap
I have read the non-AC car conversion posted by Jason in 2012. I am wondering if it is possible to transfer a functionally charged system from an AC car to another AC car with out disconnecting the refrigerant lines on the donor. At a 1st glance it looks possible, by removing the RH (Inner/Outer) fender. Has anyone attempted this process or is it just easier to bleed down the R134A (Previous owner did the conversion) and move it over piece by piece? The car it would be migrating to has…See More

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed
Posted by SK on June 2, 2025 at 2:20pm 2 Comments 0 Likes
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,

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?
