Thanks. Actually I already have a bag of bulbs - cleaned out the parts
store for this purpose. But now that I look at the full dash loom
(this project started w/ just the center console but you know how it
goes) I see I`ll need to go back to the parts store and get some more.
What`s up w/ the oil pressure line? Are they prone to rupturing or
clogging or something...? That one I had not considered...
thx

While you have the whole heater box apart, could you take some pictures
of the inside? I have to take mine apart on my 68 with AC and I`d like
a preview of what I can expect to see. I`m sure that my heater doors
are not working properly and I`m going to R&R the whole assy. I`ll
figure out a way to give you my email addy. Thanks.

Shut up, dave.
Professional driver on a closed course. Do not attempt.
Actual mileage may vary.

ME: The plastic oil pressure lines are prone to fatigue from the engine
exhaust manifold heat ; id replace it while you have the dash apart.

P.S. Please excuse the Reprobates who have a personal vendetta against
me because I put them in thier place.
