    Hey guys,I'm from Minnesota and I just bought a '63 Riviera about a month and a half ago. I pulled the car from the north side od a famers woods where it was coverd in moss and hadn't been licenced since 1975. I was told when I bought the car that it had a 425 from a wildcat swaped in, but after rebuilding the carb and having the number on that match a '63 401 and checking the casting number in the head last night I'm starting to think it has a 401. Not a big deal I guess. I still have the car I have wanted for about the last seven or eight years. Being that I am 22 it is a car I have wanted for a long time. Does anyone know a good place to get Offy valve covers? Has anyone had the knurling on the front wheel studs strip in the aluminum drums? I think a few of mine are striped. I look forward to getting to know some of you as well as the nailhead family fo engines
