old boy has been parked for a couple of years.

The carburetor was junk, I had an ignition wiring issue (turn the key to the on position and the starter starts spinning)

the HVAC blower motor was shot, truck was missing it's power steering pulley and overall the truck was mousey as could be (stink)

The blower motor on factory AC 70's fords is the type of job that will make the truck owner throw a match on the truck or push it off a cliff.

Never fear, old ford owners rejoice, I discovered a cheater process for changing out the blower without removing the HVAC dog house.

Take side cover off and start cutting on that motor frame, extract with savage exuberance.

more cutting, more savage ripping.
