`71 - what else should I look at, check or do while I have the dash
completely gutted?
Pulled dash/console to replace stereo, speakers, ammeter, tach-needle.
and tach/speedo cables. Then I remembered the heater was bypassed
years ago by a previous owner - so took out the heater box under
assumption it was ancient and likely leaked. (not as easy w/ an AC car
and now I see why).
So what else...?
Is it worth having the tach/speedo re-calibrated? AFAIK they were
accurate years ago but both cables gave and one needle and it`s been
stored for quite a while - they are out now and there is a guy locally
that calibrates the magnets. Worth it or leave well enough alone?
It`s an air car - should I get into replacing all the `seals` on the
Rube Goldberg AC flap design system.
What about those speaker `baffles` sold by Crutchfield etc - do they
help clean up bass response on speakers mounted in dash?
Any other GM cars (e.g. a junkyard) have same radio knobs as `69-71
Corvettes? I lost ONE(1) of my orig Tone/Balance inner knobs dangit!
And right now I`m too cheap/poor to spend $20 some bucks on a full set
of knobs to replace a single one.

I`d shut the fuck up and get myself an education before I started trying to
educate others if I were you.
Incidentally you never did explain your theory on the sun having a nitrogen/
helium fusion reaction.
