Here is a pic or two of my 73 soon to be Baja.   tearing out the AC and autostick is more work that I thought. |

Took out the old A/C doghouse and installed a regular one. After I yanked out the baffles, I was surprised to see them complete and still moving.
I would show some pics but Photobucket is acting up.

Thanks,
Yeah those are the bars Matt and I fabbed up. We welded up some nuts in the tubes and bolted from the inside. We did add some hefty steel for the sheet metal. But they are real solid.

Well, I have not posted here in some time. I have not built anything for the car. I have though, been shopping, I now have a turning brake (thanks to Poomwah) oil cooler, new (old) tach. My new 1914 is over at the Greens getting put together. I will have lots of parts when I get back.
