Thought it would be good if we would have one here.

Did a quick search and didn't find any started.

That is a 4 speed hydra-matic. it is supposed to be sorta rare, others told me so, although I really don't know how rare it is. I think the way it was explained to me was (kinda funny)

"It's so rare people think it's almost rumor"

I saw the AN fittings and steel braided lines and was waiting something special, Not Holy Crap special like this.

az65 · 08-18-2010, 02:51 PM

Reminds me of my favorite comics as a kid.... CARtoons!

markeb01 · 08-19-2010, 03:29 PM

Here’s mine. Nothing fancy, but looked very nice 20 years ago when I first put it together:

Ten years and about 130,000 daily driver miles later:

Ten years after that – not pretty, but a lot cleaner:

63burb · 08-19-2010, 07:05 PM

this is mine still looks the same.
I've been thinking...can I swap a newer straight 6 from a 69 pick up in to my 63? would it bolt up to my stock trany and mm?
My pops just picked up a 69 c/10 and he wants to swap it for a 350

Is that 6 banger out of that 69 a 250 or a 292?

63burb · 08-19-2010, 07:41 PM

I'm not sure i haven't really talk to my pops about it.
What would be the difference between both of them? or better yet what problem would i run into if its either one?

Don't swap it out. 350's are common, a dressed out straight six is unique. Check out this 292:
