Default need help with the headlight and wiper door assemblies ...

Anyone have a diagram or directions for either of these?

I have the assembly manual but the pictures are somewhat vague and difficult to understand.

Thanks.

Here is a great link with a very detailed drawing of the whole system. http://www.stingray.nu/bilder/vacuum.pdf

A few years ago, a guy had a great webpage detailing how to diagnose and repair the whole vacuum system. I have spent the day looking for it without any luck. Does anyone still have the link?

A large, easy to read, laminated, color coderd, complete vac hose diagram is available from Dr. Rebuild for $12. I used it along with the a complete vac hose kit to rebuild my 72 vac system. WELL WORTH THE $$$$

If no one has a better one, you can go to the Mid America catalog site and click on each part to see how it fits.

Ouch. That's a tough way to do it ... could be worse though.

I'm trying to find this info for my dad. I haven't seen the manual he has at the moment. Maybe I'll put my engineering skillz to work and put it together for him over the weekend.
