Went to MACAN for the first time, very compact for the number of cars shown. Some snaps:

Finishing up the heater box, decided to add some washers in, where the cabin side meets the firewall/ cowl. Washers were made to fit their location, my hope is the washers will spread the compressive force of the screws over a greater area and minimize future cracking of the cabin side molding...

Further question, once the heater box is closed up, are the gaskets tested for leakage by pouring some water in and checking the seals for leaks. With the water exiting out the drains?

If you pull about 10-15 in of vacuum, the defrost-heat actuator will open, releasing the vacuum, will cause the door to slowly start to close and pressurizing the actuator will full close it. Pulling a vacuum on bottom of the AC actuator will make the AC door fully open and Pulling a vacuum on...

Finishing Touch in Chicago,

On the bench, the air conditioning door actuator can be tested. It appears to be a push/ pull apply vacuum on one hose the rod extends, the other it retracts. The heat -defroster door actuator as reported seems to fail, however when both actuators are connected into the cars vacuum system. This...

Another warm day in Chicago, installed the battery tray and the horns. Nothing earth shattering, but forward process. The Spraymax 2k Glamor gloss has proven to be good match for the car as is the new mixed paint. Logically it seemed if the battery tray was body color, the mounting bolts to the...

Clear coated, the gods of warmth may do what they want.

Today's tasks battery tray to body color and the sheet metal trim above the tailgate window. Taking advantage of a warm fall day

One of the funniest humans I ever meet. One of the best tours I did, Ozzy one of a kind, heaven is not going to know what it's in for.

May, but on the angled edge the foam inhibited the doors full span of operation.

I slowly trimmed the foam seal until it closes and opens fully. Not sure what use the foam is. I also emailed DMT for the kit instructions, waiting on a reply

Hanging over the edges or even with the metal?

So, they are usually just the sheet metal door?

I think the DMT heater box rebuild kit includes foam seals for the defroster door. I think because the shop that did work on my car did a halfa$$ job on the heater box. When you hand actuate the door from closed (first pic) to open (secon pic) there is about a quarter inch of travel and it does...

New question, thanks for the previous replies. The door/ diverted for the windshield defroster. Should this open all the way? From closed to open there is only about a 1/4" movement. There is foam on the inside and a layer on the outside, I didn't apply this, is this factory or part of the...

1) I would like to bench test the actuators on my 69 Plymouth Fury with AC. Can this be done without breaking the bank buying a vacum pump and the minimal gauge set up. The test procedure requires 8 inches of vacum. Rebuilding my box during to the shops lack of testing and cleaning the...

Thank you, the Rockford offer is closer the Chicago
