Garage Photography & Other Shenanigans

When I am breaking a parts car down I will often do photo shoots of specific parts such as this 1964 429 Transmission to Engine Adaptor ring. Definitely not your typical super model photo shoot! Although.... that adaptor ring sure has some sexy curves! LOL

Jason I am continually impressed by your dedication to your hobby. Cool shoot setup.

I can't wait for spring to get my car out of hibernation.

Looking at that adapter ring it's hard to believe that one could not be water jetted out of a solid piece of steel. This is what I did when I replaced my heat riser.

Someone bought an aftermarket adaptor ring and believe it was been posted here a year or two ago. It was solid aluminum as I recall.. a bit pricey... about double the $125 I will be asking for this one which is really nice. Here's one of the pictures I posted from the above "photo op!" LOL

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,

-Samu

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed

Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments 1 Like

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?
