Couple of Questions
« on: May 30, 2015, 02:30:19 PM »
Do the rear panels on a crank down window car have the springs behind them?
Can someone post a good closeup picture of what the windshield washer hose routing looks like?
For those using an Antique Auto Battery battery and the CARS battery hold down, how thick a spacer
needs to be under the batt?

Thanks all!

I'll second the motion on this particular question.  I'm not ready to take on the washer yet, but I'll gladly squirrel away any info for future use.

Cheers, Edouard

Original battery was 9-11/16" high. Subtract your battery height to get the height of the spacer.
Don't think the back windows had the springs, just the front.
See diagram.

Dear Dan, Mark, and mid-60s . . . anything but read the instructions types!!

Ahhh!  You can't do that!

Don't you understand that I'll do just about - anything - to avoid reading da' instructions!! . . .

Fortunately (!?!?!??) . . .   I went with an aftermarket interval wiper system . . . . so my washer installation will be just that much more . . . . challenging!

Seriously, thanks for the reference except, I have a copy of the Service Manual.  I should have just looked there first!

Cheers, Edouard
