I was trying to get the steering wheel off my 73 this past weekend but had no luck. I removed the section that has the horn (that section goes from 9 to 3 o'clock) and the nut securing the wheel to the steering column. Am I missing something? I've been able to remove the steering wheel in the...
Hi all! I was working on removing the windshield of my 73 vert and was wondering what I can use to get all that black gunk off the frame. I tried scrapping it off, but wondered if there was a chemical that could expedite the process. Thanks!
Sorry for the confusion..the engine is still in the engine bay, but hasn't started in years! I was trying to figure out a way to roll it around without putting the wheels on dollies. I think I have an idea of what to do now..thanks for the responses!!

Hello all -

Since the weather is starting to get better, I was wondering if someone could share a procedure to remove the trim around the windshield (73 convertible).
I started to play around with it a little late last fall but couldn't seem to loosen the trim.
Thanks!
