65 B Body column bearing, excess play. And a horn contact question.
(Preview)
I've replaced the upper bearing in the 65 column, and there is at least 1/8 of up and down play in the wheel now. Looking at the shaft as it passes up through the bearing, it's tight on the inner race, the outer race is seated in the switch housing solid as well. The bearing is super sloppy between the races....

How to remove the radio from a 67 Parisienne
(Preview)
Hi there I want to remove the radio. There's a hex screw on the right side holding it together to a brace next to glove compartment box. It's nearly impossible to reach. Any hints on how to remove it including how to properly remove the glove compartment box if easier to access through there?

Antenna lead in 1965. Where does it enter the car?
(Preview)
Question; Where does the antenna lead in come into the car? My 65 was radio delete, and whoever installed the radio/antenna just ran the lead through the right kick vent opening. I suspect I'll have to find a creative spot as the fenders are staying on, but I'm just curious. Thanks, Mark

Can the standard B Body bench seat track be taken apart?
(Preview)
I'd like to pull my 65 seat tracks apart for a light cleanup and paint. ? I'm assuming that drilling out what appears to be a stop rivet (yellow circle) will allow the top slide off the base? My worry is there some kind of spring or mechanism that will go flying. Has Anyone done this?
