68 type III tinware question
Hi all,
Does the engine need to be removed to remove the left hand side piece of tinware that is located on top of the engine?
I can remove the right side top and bottom OK but the left top side gets stuck!!!!
I need to remove it to tighten the head bolts. They were not tightend properly on a rebuild!
