After sending off the engine and transmission for their rebuilds, I started stripping down the body in preparation for removing it from the chassis.
After removing the French Bulldog and bench seat, the interior panels were removed.
Parking brake cover and passenger side interior panel removed
Detail of steering pivot assembly and switches
Removing the steering column and switches
Removing the pedals and steering housing
Dash Removed
Removing lights and rear view mirror
Lighting components from the drivers side
Stripped down to just the wiring harness
The front and rear glass were no problem getting out, but the condition of the rubber on the side glass prevented the windows from opening, which made removing the aluminum trim piece and glass very difficult. I spent hours with a small chisel carefully digging out rubber until I could open the window enough to drill out the rivets for removal of the aluminum trim and glass.
Removing the sunroof
Bumpers removed
A view of the interior stripped bare with with the door removed
