Re: [T3] rocker pannels / heater channel assembly, and gasheater questions


<There was a difference with the 2 and 3 bolt hinge
models... and I believe
there are internal changes but they will probably weld
on..]

I hate to be the one that found out the hard way, but
there is a bigger difference than meets the eye
between 2 and 3 bolts. I had a pair of 2 bolt hinged
heater channels lined up from a '70 (ish?) American
Square to replace the crapped out 3 bolt hinged
heaters on my '73 Euro Notch. The sill profile was
different enough, as was the external (or exposed, as
it were) hinge mount that my body shop wizard
cannibalized the fresh channels and combined them with
the existing channels on the Notch rather then just
weld them in on the likelihood that the doors wouldn't
line up. I'll try to get pics of the difference by
next week. ITMT, the Notch is almost finished and is
in need of more spondulicks, or so the owner tells me.
More next week.
