    kid442 replied to the topic 1963 Olds Jetfire Re-restoration in the forum Discussion Topics – Ask the Experts 12 years ago

    A quick update. Just got the doors and trunk back from the body shop. Took a lot longer than expected. Had to scrap the doors on the car. They are primed and the jams painted the color of the car. Replaced the lower glass channel and the vent window rubber. Everything is installed and ready for the car. Will try and get the other door assembled…[Read more]

    Eric,
    I have also been working on that project. Been stalled for some time. I think a one piece design might work. I just need to finish the drawing and have one made. Let me know what you think.

    Eric,
    I just received the K & N air filter yesterday. Fits very nice. I will attach a few photos of the filter and a few of the old paper filter. I know for the cost of the filter and piece of mind I would like a quality air filter on my engine. These are reusable. Take a look and let me know what you think.

    The filter is $90 +…[Read more]

    Mac,
    I am working on the door windows on my 63 Jetfire. I was looking for door handles for the car. I had a few sets of 1967 Cutlass/442 handles around and they looked the same. Took a set and they are the same handle 1963 thru 1967. Just get a set of reproduced handles and bolt them on.
    Another thing! I was rebuilding the rear brakes on the…[Read more]
