  1. Those service letters are very informative, thank you again!
  2. I guess the 4 pole bodies are easy to come by.
  3. Thank you for that information. That service letter is very helpful. I guess mine came with the 3 as I am the original owner, car has 39k and starter was never replaced. I was fortunate to have one lying around even though it had a different nose. Had another and think I gave it to a scrap guy that came around last year.
  4. Found out overnight that the 4 pole is the heavy duty version of the Avanti stock starter

  5. Have overhauled everything except the starter. When I open it up, one of the welded on brushes had rotted off. My starter is a MDU7025 12T. I had another prestolite that has the same body, but noticed when I opened it up, It has 4 field windings and the Avanti only has 3. Anybody have any ideas. Getting down to being able to fire it up soon.

  7. Can you post where you got the valley pan and valve covers?
  8. It certainly is, looks like a factory install. Thank You
  9. Can an R2 be retrofitted with A/C
  10. Thank you, I have a couple of their dealers close by i see.
  11. I was thinking the same thing, Lucky You
  12. I'm thinking I want it heard before it's seen. How far before is the question I think. It's going to sit at my beach house and only really use it to go to some of the waterfront restaurants where all the muscle/classic cars go to show off/ be noticed.
  13. Might be desirable. R2 stick or auto with Deluxe red, looks like PW also. Don't think many of them around
  14. There are two blowers, just the blower, not even the front pulley on Ebay for $2,100 ea. Both chromed.
  15. If it's been sitting outside for 30 years, I think you will have bigger problems and other costs than the blower setup.
  16. I have a full stainless exhaust system minus the mufflers for my 63 R1. I bought the system from Don Simmons back in 1990. Can't remember if he had the name Silvertone back then. At the time he only had one muffler and wasn't going to be getting anymore. Needless to say, I never put the system on the car, until now that I'm putting it back together. Somewhere along the way he got a new manufacturer. Any recommendations on mufflers. Anybody use Silvertone mufflers. He has 3 different ones.
  17. Yah, my hose is still pliable. Not like it's brittle. Think I'll use it as is.
  18. My interior is out and there is No access to the side of the pillar
  19. The cover was off when I started this project. I must have removed it and put in in a bin in 1990. Hopefully I get my ok to put up my garage from the town tomorrow. Then I can start laying things out.
  20. what attaches to the frame bracket on the auto trans version
  21. The rubber section of the vent tube that goes up into the body and back out, is that just looped up in there or fastened. It doesn't seem to be loose in there. I'm sure it's hard and I don't want to break it off in there.
  22. I don't know, but does an auto have the clutch linkage frame mount already on the frame.
  23. If your car is nice and original/ stock, Why butcher it. Look for an abortion to beat. Only so many original cars out there. Just sayin
  24. Thanks guy, Thanks for responding. What screw would go into it, for what.
