![]() I now have a solid state one that I believe is a lot better, but the wire was toast. I stripped the dash out to find the cause, I never did find out why, the voltage regulator looked OK however it was unserviceable because I wrecked it to have a look inside. The first time that I removed the dash was because the wire that went to the voltage regulator for the fuel and temp gauge burnt out and filled the cab with smoke. ONE THING I do know, is that the group really do try to help if and when they can, but not everyone comes away happy. A well experienced member feels he/she do not need pictures, so again, no pictures exist. If a project moves ahead by a novice, a camera may be the best thing to remember by, but no one remembers to use a camera SO NO PICTURES EXIST. Of alot of the attendence here, it has been found that the books, required/recommended really help the masses, so an individual may find them a pain, but the group collective gain the info they want. Patience is a needed thing, and getting frustrated will only lead to think we do not care. ![]() Of the group, it has proven that a small collection of people are here regularily, while others may not open the Forum for weeks, giving rise to the slow rebuttal which you are looking for. Here to day for a few weeks then gone for a great while, with some never to return. Also have found that the attendence of so said viewers comes and goes on a revolving basis. Something I learned in my time with the Forum, is the fact that there is a wide variance of expertise among the viewers. There's a lot of little steps to take to get the dash out - a search of this Forum's archives may yield bits and pieces of the process with photos. '58-'66 T-bird owners are VERY FORTUNATE that these manuals were reproduced - most cars don't have them.Īs for posting of photos for this procedure, many of us start digging into a project like this and don't take the time (or forget) to do a step-by-step documentation, especially if we're racing against the clock to get the job done before it gets dark out or for some other activity. Plus, for several of us with a limited amount of time to respond, we have found from experience over many years that referring people to the manuals (especially the factory Body/Trim and Electrical Assembly Manuals) has saved most people a LOT of TIME and HEADACHES for all involved. Those of us who've used them can say that they've more than paid for themselves because they detail almost all aspects of how the cars were built. The drawings and written instructions in the Assembly manuals are very comprehensive and better that what's in the shop manuals. Reversing the order of assembly will result in disassembly instructions.
