Why can’t you use the Fairmont M/C as discussed previously in this thread? Ports are on the side away from the brace. No cutting required.

Sorry to hear about the tank. I have a leak on our 4 speed car tank. I pulled out an extra I have from a 61 Buick Special and to my surprise, the filler neck is the same between them. This one is from a 27,000 mile car and was undercoated very early in its life. It is a pain getting the undecoat off but will use it till I restore the car and…[Read more]

so i dont mess with cutting the shock brace

Why do you need an “offset” M/C? I thought we covered the M/C options back in August.

I sent you an email

Very nice looking! I am looking forward to restoring our 4 speed car but it is going to be even longer now. We are taking both cars to the Homecoming show next year so I will have to wait on the restoration a little longer.

Send me one.

We should be able to make it. We have the car being painted now. Turbo is done and bottom end of motor is built. We just have to get back from paint and install everthing. Were hoping to be done in 8 months.

These cars only weigh 2700 lbs, There is really not reason to go 5 lug. Plenty of nice wheels. If you rebuild the brakes properly, the stock drums are more then sufficient. I never had a need for disc brakes. These are rare cars and imho should be left stock

Any thoughts of an offset mc?

anyone know where to find a bezel nut tool for this?

I need about 6 to 8 quality pictures of cars. They need 8 good pictures to choose one for the T shirt of the 2019 Homecoming show. If anyone want to email me a couple quality photos I will collect them and forward them on to the Homecoming organizers.

All of my 63 carburetors had the chimney and all my 62’s do not have it. I am only assuming that they have not been changed in the past.

On another note, I finely check my MPG since I made the jet modifications and puled out the needle. I am at 17 MPG where before, I “think” I was at 19. I am going to make another change on this and see if I can…[Read more]

Hi Eric,
I am trying to determine the difference in the 1963 Jetfire carbs that show 4 part numbers where the 1962 carbs only show 2 carb numbers. I have been under the impression that the change in design of the fuel bowl/float cover is the difference. I have seen both styles of float covers on 1963 set-ups. One does not have the “chimney” on the…[Read more]
