Tail light lens question.

Good morning, Can someone tell me if I am missing something. I have removed four screws to change burned out bulbs in the back of my 64 SDV, but the plastic lenses will not come out. Are there also bolts from the back. I know it is very simple, but I do not want to force it. I have posted photos to show what I am talking about. Thanks

Comment by Jason Edge on August 9, 2014 at 9:50am: Did you remove the center aluminum ornament bar with the reflectors? You will go thru 3 sets of screws to remove it: 2 screws holding lower ends to ornament bar, 2 screws holding ornament bar to bracket, 2 screws holding bracket to tail light fixture. From there remove the upper and lower tail light screws, and gently wedge the tail light out with something thin, being careful not to crack. I touch of WD 40 can help remove it.

See complete center tail light ornament bar with reflectors, and a picture with tail light lense below:

1963 RHS A/C kick panel - photos needed

Posted by SK on June 2, 2025 at 2:20pm 2 Comments 0 Likes

Could someone post front and back photos of the 1963 right-hand kick panel with A/C?

My car didn’t come with the original kick panels, so it's a bit of a mystery to me how I should cut the backing board and carpet to fit around the A/C.

Many thanks,

-Samu

Loud air moving sound within carb with cleaner removed

Posted by Dave Fehrle on March 23, 2024 at 3:23pm 8 Comments 1 Like

While checking my Carter carb with engine running, I took the air cleaner off and there was a very loud hissing sound of air. I placed a piece of paper over the carb and it didn’t move up or down, is this normal?
