This has been another of those nagging concerns. How to repair the radio cut out and also to mount the air conditioner control cleanly.
As you can see, someone butchered the radio cut out. |

Back window.... Not so much so.
The gasket is too big for this original back window. So my glass guy is going to cut me a new, just a bit smaller, back window. |

Re: My 63 Project
Today is the day!!! We cranked the motor without gas to make sure we had oil pressure and to make sure the motor would turn over. Added some gas. And here is the results. This is the video of the very first attempt to start this motor.
|
Re: My 63 Project
Ok.. so let's try again to upload the first start video....

I decided that the carb needed a rebuild since the motor would not rev quickly. And since this carb had been sitting for like the past five years or so. Here is my first go at a carb rebuild.

And the after. She fired right back. And idled down nicely. Have to some more tuning but she runs a ton better. And now the motor will rev!!

Re: My 63 Project
Bad ass build so far, nice attention to detail!

Re: My 63 Project
Great Build! Just read the whole thing! How much clearance do you have on the bottom side of the driveshaft with the flipped crossmember?
