Hey everyone, once again thank you so much for your feedback on what to look for in getting a car.  Based on that feedback I stumbled on a black convertible on ebay from Brooklyn New York.  I have talked to the seller a couple of times now and the car has a solid history and his description of how the car drives and what updates have been done have me interested enough to plan a trip to NYC to look at and drive the car.  Here is the link to the listing, https://www.ebay.com/itm/402856472503?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT...  

If it checks out we have agreed on a price of $20K even though the Ebay price says $23K.  I guess he liked my description of my GM past and what I plan to do with the car.  The red wire in the engine bay is a bypass for the HVAC system.  (I'm a control system engineer- I can fix that).  The listing has a link to something called uShip.  Does anyone have any experience with that company and or any suggestions for shipping a car from New York to Michigan?

Tony and Ginny,  I have not found the post that you are referring to.  I am still learning to navigate this site so I am probably looking in the wrong spot.  

Hi Patrick, just curious about what happened with this car. My "Hagerty News" email has a useful article that reminded me of your quest:

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,

Edelbrock Carb Block off Plates

Posted by Chase on March 12, 2025 at 2:05pm 14 Comments

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…
