Looks great! Is that the original matching numbers engine? I am having a little bit of delimma. I have the original and it works but needs to be re-done. THinkng about just leaving it on a pallet and putting in another engine to preserve it. I love the color of your car.

I do not know if it's an original matching engine. I didn't find the vin which is normally stamp close to the area where the bellhousing is attached.

 

But there was the identification tag attached to the engine. I will post a picture later.

 

Bob, concerning the screw in freeze plugs, it is a modification done by the guy who rebuilt my engine.

My Windsor is not a big race engine. :-)

I realized that when new beltline door have been installed on the driver side, I have a gap between the glass and the seal.

I tried already to play with the guides inside the door, but nothing worked. Any ideas about that problem?

It looks like your glass is leaning inward a little too much. Would need to loosen the the nuts under the door to the bottom of the vertical guides and then pull the bottom of the guide inward toward the inside of the car. Will push the glass outward some.

i cut the guides near the very top, offset them slightly (i.e. 1/8") and rewelded.
