I saw a post on some ideas for a 409 engine decal. Well I have the original ones off my 64cs. These are the correct ones and I treasure them, cause the car was sold in 1967. Brian

I can buy a 4 speed 63 Impala steering column, will it fit in the Parisienne? I am in Ottawa, so don't have access to my car, can someone email me(wdmack53@hotmail.com) or post a pic of the steering column, where it fits to the dash and up to the wheel? Outside the firewall is the same, but not sure about ho...

Any areas prone to rust? Problem-prone systems? (It is not an air bag car I am looking at) I am going to see a 58 Bel Air (yes I know it is not a Canadian Pontiac but under the skin it is the same) next week, I hope, and if the price is right, I will have my "driver" car to feed my Jones while I continue to work on my 5...

Anyone have part numbers or an equivalent vehicle I can use to order cap, rotor and points? I tried the RockAuto route by using a chev 235 and the points are a no go. Couldn't source a cap but the rotor did fit. 1960 Laurentian 261 engine Would love numbers for the following. Cap Rotor Points Thanks!

I have a line on trading for a 62 Parisienne 4 door. I am wondering what would swap over from the 4 door to a 2door post. Do the seats or door panels swap over? Any of the body panels work in case my 2 door gets hit. Thanks

Just picked up the '63 from the muffler shop last night. I had a pretty hood style glasspack system dumping in front of the rear tires. Way loud and super droney, not to mention a little stinky inside the car. So I got the guy to fab up a crossover pipe, and custom bend new tail pipes over the axle and stra...

Hello all! I have been tinkering away on my 60 Laurentian and have ordered some parts from RockAuto. I lucked out on the brake shoes , master cylinder and flex hose. The tie rod ends, filters and misc other goodies are a no go. I used the Belaire 4.3 US model to order. I need the tie rod ends and a water pump. A...

Took the old gal out for a good spin yesterday to a retro diner on the side of highway 2. It's running great aside from a fuel issue under load and a heater core leak.

On my 64 custom sport, there are brackets on the inner fender well near the washer fluid container, there are brackets for what I am assuming was a glass bottle that held spare washer fluid. Anyone know if those bottles are still available? Also would like to trackdown ventless valve covers and some 32...

I remember a thread long ago that a tire must be installed on these rims in a certain order ? Back first? I'm using a set for a utility trailer and would like to check first. Thank you.

I think the 62 needs new radiator, the history--when I bought the car told the rad had been recored but driving with the 283 hot light came on, checked with heat gun and it was hot. So I flushed it with vinegar for 4 days drained flushed with water should be good. Long story short ended up putting in a crate 3...

I have a few filters and tie rod ends I'm willing to part with cheap Or trade for an air cleaner base for my 60 Laurentian 261. They are two Fram oil filters CH200PL, a Fram CG20 fuel filter and two ES140R T140 tie rod ends.

Which do you like? I thing the red on the black car would be good. The white emblem has gold on it (it is the grill emblem from a 63), it is supposed to print much clearer than you can see in this pic. I've not done a poll before, I'll try that.
