Really like looking at your progress. You've done a very neat project. I think the rally's really look great and I must say again that you have a very neat and clean garage!

Looks like your guy did a great job. I hope I can find a guy in Connecticut to do my Ivy car this spring. A little concerned after all the work I put ito the project, that I may have a less the desirable interior. I would be delighted if it comes out as nice as what you have pictured.

Very nice looking 63!!! Do you have the shift boot in it? My wife ordered me one like a year ago from Show Cars and its on back order, just wondered if someone else carries it.

Luv it..........nice work.........now enjoy
Not yet, I am replacing upper control arm's with more caster built in for better handling as per instruction's with power steering gear box suggest's, and then align. I had a slight vibration on some short road test's and checked and found two bent rim's so have to replace those.:mad Need to install hood and trunk insulation ,{ not stock } find a spare tire and wheel, adjust low beam's, high's seem ok.Differential has ring and pinion noise as i just serviced it when putting it in , thought i might get lucky and be quiet and just try it first,no cigar. Will do differential down the road.I am installing air lift air bag's in rear coil's so i can set my desired height in rear. I put in stock new coil's ,but like to be up just a little more. I did have those stiff rough, and i mean rough riding, 409 spring's in rear even with one coil cut off .I did like how it set though, as i junked those. Also a few little odd's and end's here and there.

The Car Shop lists the boot in their paper catalog. Here is a link to their web site http://www.truckandcarshop.com/ . I will need to order one hopefully in a year or so for my '63, hope they still have it available.

I just had a little time to look on line. The Car Shop lists the '63 SS boot as part number 63-04612.
