Hello All,
Since Solvang is over I finally decided to get serious about working on my
67 2000. I spent about four hours working on the car and got a lot of help
from Roman Rist. I am still in the "take it apart" stage, and today was the
day I took the windshield assembly off.
I knew about the two hidden nuts under the dash and after removing the seats
to make it easier to get underneath I had at it. Well, I learned two things:
On my car the nuts are size 7/16 and more importantly, they are located
right in line with the windhshield wiper hardware and it is a pain to get a
socket to seat with it in the way. I prevailed and the the windshield is
off the car.
When I was taking the gauges out of the dash, I had an easy time getting the
speedo and the tach out that are held in by wingnuts and and clips, but the
oil/temp gauge and the and fuel gauge seem to be screwed in and I can't see
how to get them out without first removing the dash.
Oh well, next time,
Andrew Murphy
