Re: heating system?

Do the results you list here work for a 63? I have a Spyder Turbo Convertible. I'm having difficulty getting the old nasty hoses out of the (I don't know the lingo so I don't know what to call it) sides going from front to back inside the car. I'm a real newbie and I don't know much about this but I'm a willing and eager student so I do not get offended when you correct me.

The EM (Early Model 60-64 but in your case 62-64) convertibles use the rocker (boxed part of body below the doors) for the ducts. The non-convertible EMs use a hose running all the way. The LM (65-69) has a plastic duct that runs from front to back. You will have the 2 big hoses from the engine to the heater box, a couple of small hoses under the back seat and two more small hoses running from the front floor ducts to the defrost. Brad normally posts a bunch of good info and diagrams. You may want to start a new post so he notices.
