Dismantling the Dashboard 140-160 1970

posted by  someone claiming to be Tommy on  Fri Oct 19 09:59 CST 2001 [RELATED]

I'm going to dismantle the dashboard this weekend in my 70 144 to fix the following:

- Replace the instrument cluster

- Replace the radio

- Replace the air conditioning vents/panels (and possibly the blower)

- Replace the headlight switch

- Possibly replace the entire dash pad itself

How hard is it to get to these items? Where are the screws to get the pad and panels out? Can you pull the radio out from underneith? Do the A/C ducts make this work a lot harder? I was also thinking of replacing the wiper motor/assembly while I'm under there (because the wipers stop sometimes midway up the windshield and it takes a bump to get them going again). How difficult is that?
