Default 66 Ingnition bezel - ahhhg


Hi guys,

Almost bare shell now but having a real hard time getting the igniton switch out. I know the books say put a paper clip in the hole and key to Acc and then pull. Hahaha. No way does this make any difference other than spinning it around. I have good access as the harness is almost out as well as the w/screen and dash pad. I dont wont to break it so are there any tricks to this other than having as many arms as Squidward.

This is holding me up. Next step crow bar.

The plan is to hand sand the roof before going to the bead blaster as I have been told and seen some warped hoods from too much heat. Interesting that this 66 emberglo coupe has no rust and that the under side of the dash and firewall were never painted or even undercoated. Was this common or was mine built on a Friday afternoon? There is just a slight cover of surface rust - amazing. I would think they must have suffered badly from rot here if the screen leaked or you were in humid conditions. Mine is apparently a San Francisco car.

Thanks
