Nice to see you’re keeping your son involved. I had mine out in the garage today helping me remove the windshield & rear glass.

Ferrules on drain tubes evaporator core side. Get them hot with the torch and knock them off.
Copper leads into heater box at heater core. Heat, pb blaster, and wiggle them in rotation to break it all loose.
Lots of debris, trash and deteriorating insulation as to be expected.

I
Plan is: 440 motor, TKO 5 speed manual, rear is in at a 3.55 Sure Grip. He is still kicking tires, so to speak. I like 17’s but he is thinking old school 15” or so. I just hate the limited choices on rubber if you don’t follow the trends. Every time you think that you are making good headway just pull out your master design/build notebook. I have a lot of superficial body work to do and it is all manhours.

I don't count hours, I find it hurts less that way.

Continuing with the air box. Cleaning and painting in preparation of the insulation rebuild kit. Everything is pretty nasty and rough. Opened up the blower and went thru it. Heater core needs a rebuild and the H pipe is bad.
