Comment by Kenneth Barton on August 31, 2025 at 10:39pm: Do you recall if there is a return spring on the interior side of that mode door?

I took mine apart and there appeared to be one with one end broken. Just checking my work.

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?

Many thanks,
