Lots of threads on this. Don't try it. Send them to the guy.

Remember that you are only the keeper of the car now, the car will live on after you are gone. I say keep it original, they are only original once. You dont really drive the car much anyways. You aren't a drag racer, trying to win a championship, you probably arent a teen ager out street racing...

Sell them reasonably to somebody that wants to use them. Is the air breather from the '68 or '73?

Cool idea. Keep us posted on what you find that works. If you can find a pie tin, that is.

Its already millions of years old, so whats a few more decades going to matter...

Where did you find them?

I don't recall a backing plate on my '68, and it had original carpet in it.

There has to be a reason that the filters were not functioning correctly. Please analyze it and let us know why. I am sure that we all have used plenty of Fram filters in our lives without a problem.

Save it. They are worth it, and they look cool too. That car is very similar to mine.

What heads do you have? You are going to have to do some creative cross matching. Like 69bee said, maybe with a Ford 300 six or something like that.

Show us some pictures of what you are working on, please. There is lots of bolts on the car, you will, probably, have to look for each of the parts fasteners individually. On some you may have to figure out what size and find a bolt at the hardware store or something like that. I learned to...

It couldn't be anything too serious if it was running strong when you parked it. Maybe the filter is clogged up or something like that. 'Major engine damage doesn't just happen because it is sitting. Change the filter, it is cheap enough.

We need all of the info. Maybe a Holley or Edelbrock carb, maybe a single plane or dual plane intake manifold. It all works together. Hook everything up correctly and it has a better chance of working. The best place to start.

Too big of a carburetor for mild engine. A good 650 even a 750cfm would be much more responsive. The 950 is probably very sensitive on the secondary spring rate with that huge secondary venturi. jetting right for altitude and power valve right as per Holley recommendation would be a good place...

Go for it. It is as good as any for the price. If you like the car...they are all going to take plenty of work, so no reason to pay too much up front. Offer them 2500 and take it home and get started.

Show us some pictures of the situation, please.

Wow, I would save that one and have it re chromed. Cool original piece. Thanks for the picture.

Do you have an original that has 8 holes? All of the ones that I have seen have 4 holes. If you have an 8 hole one, please show us a picture.

I consider it "early " because it has the 67 parts that were used before January '68. I'm not sure about '71 cars. Just letting OP know October isn't the earliest.
