[63HO3x2Cat421]

Thanks to all for the the encouraging words and compliments.

Deadhead, This car was ordered with 20+ options, actually 25 in total but 5 or 6 of them are for different lamps. Price before otions was $2,859, after atllying up the extras she stickered at $4,056. Pretty high considering no AC or 8 lugs. The only "power" option selected was power brakes. I'm just trying to keep it looking like it was when born, including eventually narrow whitewall tires with those caps, i might consider red lines though. Of course a factory tach to go along with the guage cluster is a must if i can find the right one.

Also deadhead, no problem taking any pics you want just let me know exactly what you need and an email address and we'll get em right out to you. BTW, What's D/S stand for?

Car looks so reserved. Just the right amount of everything. That was big bucks. My well optioned '66 Bonne wagon was invoiced for $4400, so that shows how high that '63 was. I am going to delete my center air vent & put the gauge cluster in to go with the tach as well. The green makes them look 'industrial strength' inside.

Thanks. I should only need Driver Side (D/S) tunnel area Pics when the time comes. I think I have all the linkage & pedal stuff figured out.

Wow it works. Just figured out how to resize a photo to load. Owned my 62 Cat (Ventura) for almost 4 years. Purchased it from the son of the original owner in southern California. Car has 78,000 miles. Just installed a 400 turbo (Bendsten adapter kit) to the 389. Also added a 4bbl.

Nice! I can hear that thing barking those big tires between gears. I have already killed one vacuum modulator since putting a kit in my TH400 this spring.
