    Finally getting my childhood car

    5k is a good price IMO if there's no rust... It's a steal. 65 is a good year and a vert is also a great plus. I paid 6k for my 66 coupe. It did run however. I'd inspect it first and look for rust; notorious places are under the cowl and in the trunk and underneath the car. Posting in...

    Stereo Head Units

    I kept the original radio in place and installed an aftermarket head unit underneath it. I am planning on making a custom center console and hide the aftermarket one in there. I like the mp3 playing capability, hd radio and aux hookup.

    Repro. Speedometer cables

    It did bounce a bit with the last one. So i should hook up a drill straight to the speedometer and spin it? if it doesn't bobble the speedometer is bad? I don't think i can remove or spin the cable from the tranny it got chewed up pretty bad at the breaking point and is probably frozen solid...
