Any tricks?
Any tricks?
So, I'm removing the AC on the 69 Supreme, as well as putting on some Hedman headers, and doing some front suspension work, and Im having a b*** of a time getting the inside fender well out, if any of you wise men have a trick I would certainly appreciate it.
In my experience, on any car that's been in the rust belt, the clip nuts that hold the inner fender to the outer along the wheel opening will rust and snap when you try to remove the bolts. I always had to pull the whole fender.
I actually have all the screws out as far as I can tell, no rust issues, but it doesn't seem to want to let go. Is there any hidden crews possibly at the firewall corner that I'm missing, or any that need to be removed from inside the dash?
4 across the front of the wheel tub behind headlights
several up under wheel well opening along the edge - I forgot how many
exactly - 7-8 perhaps / usually 1 with large flat washer at bottom corner
of plastic well at bottom by firewall near fender side.
then 2 that stick thru the top and connect into top of inside of fender.
if you have all these out then it's just stuck from crud and needs to be
wiggled enough to break it loose whatever is holding it still in place.
I can take mine out in less than 10 mins (with tire removed ) they're not
really that hard if you have all the bolts out
