    Blower Motor Fan - What goes Here?

    Gorgeous car! I do not know for sure, but you might try Mod Podge, there's a lot of tips on the Internet about glass to fabric in craft circles, I would probably try it (I have a 73 Convertible that I just finished restoring, but the top was OK). Ever get tired of your car, please think of me!

    The original heater/ac blower is notorious for squealing, most post suggest replacing the blower, and usually aftermarket blowers are poor quality chinese knockoffs. I experimented by using the air vent opening on the blower motor housing infusing different lubricants (I simply found an...

    Heater fan sounds like an egg beater

    I experimented with many things to avoid replacing the fan unit, I found that by adding about 1/4 cup of F type transmission oil to the fan motor by way of the opening on the top of the fan motor housing, the noise vanished and has never returned. I used a small tube and simple pump to reach...
