Does anyone own a original '63 326 HO w/auto?
I recently purchased a nice Lemans convert, which was converted to HO spec with a (I was told by PO) '64 4bbl intake, a AFB 4 bbl whose ID # corresponds to '64 Buick 401 usage, and factory correct dual exhaust. Runs fine, very happy with the car. However, perhaps because of the mismatched carb, intake, linkages, etc , a trans kickdown switch and bracket, plus a dashpot assembly, were never installed. I've obtained a switch and bracket(really not sure if from a '63) plus a couple different dashpots and brackets, but nothing seems to fit/line up correctly. The factory service manual drawing (figure 7A-18) shows a kickdown bracket but not really exactly how/where it mounts. I thought if someone who has an original HO would be good enough to post a pic of these components as originally installed, it would be very helpful. Its not critical to how the car runs and drives, but I'd at least like everything to look correct (and it would be nice for the kickdown to work). Thanks for any help, and Happy Holidays!
