Rear Quarter Liner Assembly
Remove small wooden block topped by the aluminum hard top surround finisher plate. The aluminum finisher is secured by three small stainless screws. The wooden block is secured by a single self tapering screw that also helps to fix the rear quarter liner assembly. Four screws go through the door shut plate and into the wood of the rear quarter liner assembly. Once these are removed the assembly can be lifted free of the interior.

Heater
Opened the drain plug on the radiator. Detached the rubber hoses to and from the engine so that they can be pulled through the firewall with the heater unit when ready. Removed the heater bracket just to the right of the steering wheel. Six #10 machine screws hold the bracket to the firewall. Loosened the wire clamps that secure the heater hose from the blower unit on the right front fender well and pull through the firewall. Disconnected the heater control cable from the water valve. Disconnected the demister hoses from the vents to the windscreen. Disassembled the unit and flushed the radiator. Removed rust, painted and reassembled.
