Pat, looking good! You are flying through this project. Is the body paint going to be the long pole in the tent?
LOL!

Car's looking great Pat!
Thanks Bud, I did go with the Super T-10, along with the 400 output shaft. I do have the original T-10, but I tore out second gear so fast in my '62, I thought I would go ahead with a stronger unit right from the start in the '63. The numbers matching unit, along with the original shifter, will remain on my shelf.

Nothing like bang'n a good second gear------well, right up until the big crunch. One more thing, did you go with the shorter driveshaft too? I've read the big output shaft Muncie and T-10's are a little longer.
Thanks for the info Pat!---And fingers crossed for you and those up and your area.

Hey Shannon,
The Super T-10's are a bit longer. I went ahead and had my driveshaft shortened by 3/4". I now wish I hadn't as I think they actually went a little more, and the driveshaft is shorter than I wish it to be.
I'm still considering replacing the driveshaft with a longer one.
Also, so far we have escaped serious fire in our immediate area. Very sad for those a bit to the north west of us.
Wonderful stage to be at ..... congrats, Pat!
You say "friends," but we all know these are your merry band of employees who live in a barracks beside your garage and respond to your every beck and call for assistance, and who are usually kept hidden! How else could your project have progressed so fast? It's the only explanation that makes sense.
Yes, but as you can see I have a bit of work to do on mine. Those two are actually embedded in the weatherstripping and the larger of the other three holes is for the brace screw.
By the way, I’m very close to locating an unloved ‘64 coupe for my wide flare project.

Keep up the great work!
can't wait to see your '64 with the flares. I love to see them lowered with wide flares, and 10" Americans on them.
This '63 is going back to almost 100% original, simply due to the fact that most all parts on the car were original.
