That whole front bolster has to be removed as shown in this poor picture. Remove hood and grill, and set them aside. take off the radiator. There are two nuts under that pull it off . My hoses were in need of replacement so I just cut them off. I blocked up the clutch housing, and hung the engine from the rafters just for safety. Unbolt that one bolt that holds the steering shaft to its holder up by the steering wheel. Lay that whole assembly off to the side.

If the bolster isn't full of 40 years of crud you'll see 4 bolts that hold it on. Remove them, but first get a way to support that bolster. I used a boom hoist of the bac of my ford tractor, but an engine hoist, or a second come-along from the rafters would probaly work. Slide it all away and you'll have a the cover.

Take Care
Steve
