Thank you for the response, I will get the 63 data soonest.

... colored plastic center (BTW the originals 'back in the day' were only available with black-background centers). As for value, a search of places like ebay or for sale-wanted ads may give you a range.

Great, thanks very much.

One post mentions that they went out of business by 2018, but such is apparently not the case as they do have ads in recent (2024) issues of CTCI "Early Bird" magazine. Who makes the harnesses for the "usual suspects" I don't know.

I would think that would be even better having more surface area to hold if the 1/4" legs are good. If the automakers could save pennies it ads up over volume. That's why so many "new" cars are having so many recalls due to trying to scrimp too much or just bad engineering and too much complicated ...

... the wrong bin and spending time fixing the mistake? One single model belt for the generator and for the P/S pump.
No functional difference and just ads a bit of uniqueness to the engine compartment. Oh, and all the level dip sticks are calibrated for the tilt.
Just one caveat. If you want to take ...

There were a bunch of years when we couldn't get the big oval air filters for the dual quad air cleaner and now Scott Drake makes them. Perhaps we can ...

If your wife paints the lettering on your battery, I suggest she only paint the AUTOLITE ... we have very few examples we can study the details on. Those seen in ads from the time period often had all of the lettering painted specifically ...

... people are remaking the decal - in fact, check back issues of the Scoop's classified section within the past few years as I believe there have been ads for them. 'Raven' (Wally Kent) has had some made up with a coated face (the originals did not) which will hold up better than uncoated ones, while ...

... and you could get a runner for 15K and up. Of course these were internet ads so no telling what the cars were actually like in person. That being said, if the car you are pursuing is going to be sold at an auction, odds are it will be going for more than your target price as there is always someone ...
