I'm pretty sure they are. I have all of the records from when the car was brand new and I didn't see replaced door panels anywhere!

I've recently been having some trouble with it though. When I mash the gas, It bogs down until it actually starts going smooth. I've replaced the distributor points and checked all of the spark plugs. And cleaned the carb. Any ideas guys??

x2

were you having gummed up/misfire or the likes type issues before?
Did the car sit for awhile?
(Gas quality?)

I put regular gas in it and it had been sitting for a couple of months, but not any longer than that.

It either sounds like it's getting to much fuel on acceleration until it gets high enough rpm's to take the fuel or not getting enough, if your carb is tuned right, might check your fuel pump.

I will go ahead and say it since everyone else is afraid to.

Timing, maybe?

That's pretty extreme. I think you should get another car to go muddin' but that's just my opinion, ha ha
