  1. I guess I said it wrong. I knew that the seats were the same, I meant the finishing of the seats. What were the two differences.
  2. Sorry, Put in wrong group. removed but I guess it only took out the pictures. It's in 63-64 group.
  3. How many different styles were offered in the seats.
  4. Just pulled front windshield and there was no type of sealer or bedding compound. Window fell right out. Should there be something in there. Also noticed what looks like a drain hole in bottom of post. Should that be open. Post seem to be in good condition, slight surface rust, mostly glue residue.
  5. Pulled front glass today and there was No sealer or bedding compound at all. Is that the norm. Noticed a small gap at bottom of windshield post, Is that a drain. My posts are in great shape. My car in general is in pretty good shape for having 36k on it.
  6. I bought the new clutch already, It's a 9 spring centrifugal unit. The more rpms the more force on the plate. time will tell, I'm still way out before the clutch goes in. Just getting ready for it to go to paint shop. Just need to take out rear glass.
  7. They are used to hold the frame mount access covers on the front floor. 2 in each.
  8. That's what I have been working on for a year. Trying to put a large building up. Trying to hide my toys from my wife. Dealing with the EPA sucks. Everything you do with them requires a check. Had to pay them just to read my LOI. Hopefully Trump will straighten them out. MAGA A friend had to pay $100,000.00 fine because he took debris from his job sight to his shop to put in his shop dumpster. All because it crossed the county line with it.
  9. What do you think shipping would cost
  10. Sorry about the listing, But I said where it was. Simple enough to find.
  11. Yes, 421 Super Duty, 1,800 cfm tri power, ball bearing linkage, 254 first gear in the Muncie, 390 rear. It was built for street racing, by Ace Wilson, Royal Pontiac, Royal Oaks. It was totally lightened. Didn't even have seam sealer in the joints. Would pull the front wheels without even trying. 4 miles per gallon with the key off. Had it sitting outside my garage, somebody came in and asked if I wanted to sell it. Said no but the 61 corvette inside is for sale. Can't remember if they bought it or not, but a week or so later, I was walking by GTO and noticed the steering wheel, which was only on the Royal Bob Cat and the special Bob Cat carb linkage was missing. Don't know how, I lived right across the driveway, and it was well lit. Took it and parked it in the fields at my parents and some years later sold it cheap.
  12. Just saw this ad. 88 avanti Paxton supercharged. Looks like a great parts car. Looks clean except for nose. Wish i lived closer. Craigs List San Antonio Tx
  13. Alright, I had a 64 Royal Bob Cat, one of 3 made, when I was seventeen. And a 62 Ferrari 250 GT swb Berlinetta when I was 30. Wish I had them today, I gave them away. Had and have two different things, unfortunately. Memories
  14. That's what it looks like. No way it was put on any other way. Would you happen to know a supplier of any of the fill material or the board. The board only measures 3/32".
  15. Did they come made of Luan or are they replacements
  16. Did you buy it new yourself
  17. Never heard of that dealer. Only time I ever went up that way was on Sat. night with parents to visit grandparents in Newark.
  18. last time I saw the one was Aug 13th. 2019. That was the R2. I honestly don't know if my brother is still alive. His POS wife would never even let me know.
  19. Bob, I was 10 at the time, so it's certainly possible they installed at dealer. I'm lucky I remember my name sometimes. Where did you get your car from/
  20. Hey Bob, I typed you a full story of the circumstances of the R2 and R3, and somewhere when I was finishing up, it vanished. I've looked everywhere. It's floating around out there somewhere. I'm to beat to explain again tonight. I'll try again tomorrow. Long story short, my older brother stole it and the one R2 from storage and there sitting in Tennessee in weeds. Made me sick to my stomach when I saw them. The R3 was Red, 4 speed, black interior and was purchased in NJ. I assume they were 63s. They all had round headlights. I do remember that the spark plugs had to be changed all the time, because the insulator around the electrode would disintegrate. I was only 10-12 during that time.
  21. Mfg, pulled my clutch shaft today. Mine was factory brazed. Might tack it anyway, it’s out. Is the contact surface on the two fingers flatter. Enclosed pics. Any idea how thick a new disc is. Manual says each face is .135, mine measures .133 and total width is .333.
  22. Guy, picture if my panel. It was screwed to body before cover went on. No center clip and no hole in body for one. Window screw only go into the vinyl where it lays in window channel. My backer board is 3/32” thick, hard board.
  23. Just curious, was there an extension for the rear bumper, extending the bumper out a few inches. I happen to see a 63 Avanti on Ebay, located at Gateway Classic cars in Texas. The bumper was definitely farther off the body and it appeared to have some kind of blocks and straps on the sides. Just curious
  24. I guess so, Father ordered all the cars through my uncle.
  25. Guy, My panel does not have a clip and No hole for one. It had four small screws. The lower panel in your picture with curtesy light in it, is that plywood? Where is the location of the clip on your panel, I don't see a hole for it.
