What kind of an hobbyist will I be if I parade my cars to a shop willy nilly
Let me clarify though, what I want to change is the rubber between the frame and the body.
Gowan, then. It's only six bolts!
<span style="font-style: italic">Some extra steps:
1) Invest in a couple swivel sockets:
7/16", quarter-inch drive and 9/16", 3/8" drive.
2) Find a dexterous ten-year-old. Strictly for reassembly of under-dash bolts.
3) Invest in several cases of CAB (CheapArseBeer. For YOU not th' kid).
4) Expect NOT to drive the car with a windscreen for a while.</span>
I've posted it here a number of times and after they've been thru it once, others agree: I'd rather do THREE clutch R&R's on an MGB than ONE roadster windshield.
...and I worked on these cars for my bean money for decades.
<span style="font-style: italic">EDIT: If you ~DO~ take it to a shop, make certain they are responsible for glass replacement if they break it, and INSPECT to insure there are TWO bolts per side installed properly before you pay. This ~IS~ a fiddly, difficult task.</span>
