Complete rally dash frame removal
Not a lot done, but dash frame is off to powder coaters. The original one is in better shape than my spare one I was going to use in my "Rally dash redo" thread.
I also replaced one of the cables for the ac/heat under the dash. Once I "unthreaded" the mounting clip from old cable, I discovered I had it mounted incorrectly. Lubed it before install and mounted with tab in proper position.
Greased the wiper pivots. Gaskets appear to be good there. Also removed all linkages, washers and bushings and gave them some Lubriplate.
A lot of the cowl insulation was missing so I bought cheap/thin foil insulation from hardware store and glued it up there with 3M.
Back to work tonight....never seem to get enough done on my time off.
**when doing ac/heater cables I noticed that the lever mechanisms are totally different. I knew they were, BUT one thing I noticed is that 67 AC levers have NO plastic pins for the cables** THAT is a huge bonus!!
I have controls from 67 notchback non ac and they have plastic pins/slides.
