Thank you. that is just a portion. gauges are NOS, clock has been restored, center bezel is NOS and the outer bezel has been re-chromed. The entire dash is probably the most outrageous part of this car.

Ya know. . . You could do the optional dealer upgrade and add TWO four-barrels. . .

They are not that hard to find and are not really worth much. Now........ If it were a OEM SINGLE four bbl with the large pattern ......... Then it would be valuable.

Was there more than one pattern for a 318-4?

Yes Stan. The first series, 56-57 used a smaller Carter WCFB. Then there were two different manifolds with the AFB base mount. 58-60 with a generator mount and 61-62 w/out, Like the one I have shone here.

Is that 4bl for my '61 ?

It's the exact correct manifold and carb for a 61 318 power pack. Steph, you don't even want to know what's invested in this setup. I've got the correct air filter housing too.

A lot if I am correct my other '61 had a 4bl but before that it was a 2bl. I will admit I still miss it .

I'm leaving for Ocala in the morning, then to Gulf shores until mid January.
I've left Virgil in the hands of the body guy with all the replacement panels he needs. Hopefully the body will be solid and in epoxy sealer when I get back. I still have a lot of stripping, cleaning and refinishing of parts, including the Stub frame and engine/trans.
Maybe back to a roller by march.

I recently learned the owner of this '61 passed away on the 19th of September. I do not know if the car will stay in the family.

Yes he did I am so sad all 3 of our cars will not be parked next to each other at a car show. I was told there is not much more to do on mine but I wish it was ready for the Minor Hill Christmas parade but since my dad is selling his '68 charger I might end up driving my 2016 dodge challenger
