V8 289 3 speed.  Options include power steering and factory air.  Not sure if it makes a difference but it is a convertible.

August 1965 Build.  Have not tried evaporust yet.  I was going to get some.  What would be the best way to soak it? Rain gutter?

I used a pvc tube and glued end caps on then after the glue set I cut a hole in the top. Worked out pretty well as it may seal better than a rain gutter.
