Re: Resurrecting the Rambler
(Thanksgiving weekend)
The heater box assembly is now out of the car-- what an ordeal! Took the better part of a whole afternoon.
Unbelievable amount of screws, dash pieces, steering column drop, etc etc, even some rivets had to get sheared off. I have sympathy for anybody on the auto shop clock working on switching out a heater core in one of these.
Tackled the wiper piece removal too, and continued on stripping out useless weight like the sound deadener, cabling, some wires behind the dash, the speakers, and various other little things in the engine compartment. We're to this point now.
The result picture is showing the dashboard pieces stacked all over the top of the car and a firewall that's getting cleaner all the time. Got a few wires to select and keep, most will go away.
