    No, not too hard with the turbo off, there are 2 screws at the bottom of the heater core box, one has the brake line support.

    Wow floors look really nice. You have to take both heater boxes off. They will be stuck on really good.
    It can be done with the motor in place but difficult. Turbo needs to come off.

    Eric,
    I’ll take the center diff section and drain plug with tag from the limited slip rear. That thing looks like it was in a lake! I hope the diff is good.
    Also. when you have time to list all the NOS stuff I’ll look through it. My friend Lee lives on the next street over from me and he bought Phil’s 62 Jetfire that he is restoring and he needs parts.
    Looks like an NOS radiator hose WOW.
    Do you have an NOS Turbo Fluid Filter? I’ll take it if you do.

    No, just get them re-sleeved by a brake restore company. Lots of them on the net.

    I believe they should be spring ring, that strap looks correct. If you find another, I need one too.

    These cars only weigh 2700 lbs, There is really not reason to go 5 lug. Plenty of nice wheels. If you rebuild the brakes properly, the stock drums are more then sufficient. I never had a need for disc brakes. These are rare cars and imho should be left stock

    Where were the floor pans modified for the 4 speed trans tunnel? Was it at Fisher Body or at Oldsmobile? Hard to believe Fisher would do the trans tunnel mod that way.
