1. How many Bucket seated/center console 61 Biarritz's are there?

2. How much would be too much to put into this car?

3. What would the value be after complet restoration?

I'm pretty sure the case is not aluminum because it is rusty and the transmission is pretty heavy. I am wanting to put it in a 1962 Impala with a 409.

I have a 1962 Impala 4r hardtop with an unoriginal 350 engine in it.

I am having trouble keeping it running, the only way i can get it to start is to spray starter fluid in to the carb.

Then after i get it to start it lets loose an ungodly amount of white smoke literally to the point of having to turn the car off or i would die.

I have no Mechanical experience with cars,I am a computer guy,

I found a few post about similar problems but am not sure how to apply them to my situation and some of the technical terms confuse me.

Getting the car to start and stay running smoothly is my main concern i will need to get the dash electronics hooked up but that will come later.

(the guy i bought it from left the dashboard a mess i have a bunch of bulbs and knobs hanging from underneath and i have no clue what they are, what they do or where they go.)

If anyone can offer help i would greatly appreciate it like i said overall help would be nice but my main goal is to just to be able to start it smooth and keep it that way then i will move on to the rest.

Oh i have an edlebrock carb i think it is a 4 barrel iam not sure how to identify the model of the carb, and i have a LOT of gas poring into the carburator and around it and it is so bad it is pooling on the engine block. If i need to provide more information please let me know this is my dream car and i would love to have it up and running when I get out of college. my email is kazuma080@live.com]]> http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/125995/gas-leak-in-03976-camaro Thu, 13 May 2010 17:00:40 +0000 Hope1976 125995@/forum/discussions http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/124473/worst-customer-service-award-goes-to- Thu, 15 Apr 2010 01:39:26 +0000 BlazenHot06 124473@/forum/discussions "Worst Customer Service Award" goes to Noah Performance

http://www.noahperformance.com/ Its been over a month since Ive placed my order, Noah dosent return my calls, nor my emails and still hasnt refunded my money back to my account? Ive finally turned it over to my bank, dissputing the charge. The funny thing is I had a grocery list of parts to put on order! The economy must be back in an up-swing and we can pick and choose whom we do business with? Maybe its my charming personality? Either way, back to the drawing board, I'm ever looking for the next small business entrepreneur worthy of my thousands of dollars of needed vehicle upgrades. Noah Performance two thumbs down. ]]> http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/122886/fuel-sending-unit Mon, 22 Mar 2010 21:58:01 +0000 BlazenHot06 122886@/forum/discussions http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/125218/1959-bel-air Wed, 28 Apr 2010 21:22:29 +0000 dlsweep 125218@/forum/discussions


The floor is rusted out, but I would think many of the parts are useable.



I am not a car guy. lol

What i know so far is its either a super or a regular rocket 88 with all orginal parts, tranny, motor, body etc. Its been garage kept for years but still has rust in several places. The engine is seized but it was taken to a mechanic and he told us that it is possible to get it turn.(so im guessing its not done?) The guy im helping selling has the title its just currently lost in his house, but hes going to find it before ill put it up on ebay. the frame itself has surface rust but doesnt appear to have anything more then that... i dunno how i could check that? im also going to try and get sum pics to see if that'll help so lemme know if they aren't up with this post. thanks yall i also have more of them if some one would like to see more of the car]]> http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/123758/coolant-leak-78-nova-help Mon, 05 Apr 2010 18:24:34 +0000 grizzlyj 123758@/forum/discussions http://www.classiccar.com/forum/discussion/124134/1989-chevy-camaro-rs-i-need-help Sat, 10 Apr 2010 20:15:48 +0000 KFrey1988 124134@/forum/discussions

Good things to post on this thread would include guides, tool recommendations, and troubleshooting questions.



I will begin by asking the most basic question.



Is it worth rebuilding a 283 V-8 engine numbers matching?



If not, how do you know what engine will fit your specific vehicle?



Does engine year matter, or can it just be any small block V-8 with the right mounts?
