Do you have a coolant leak from the heater??
Possible, although it’s never wet in that area but rather a crusty residue after I use the heat…. I just wipe it off when it accumulates! :cheers:
 
Played around with some paint and new stainless steel screws…

The resto on the heater box from my 1975 40 is finished and ready to go back in!

I wish I was more like @GA Architect - I’d obsess about this stuff on my floor mat then pull the heater to totally redo and improve it but……….. 🤣
 
Replaced the power steering pump, last one had a small shaft seal leak that slung a nice black sludge as the oil burned on the belt inside the hood and fender. Also added tweeter speakers, snuck the wire under the knee pads and held in place with two sided tape. The most amazing part is both repairs came out well the first time, weird…

Finally finished my minitruck steering box rebuild last week so I could take my youngest daughter out to Roundup and wheel it!

Put in a new MC for the clutch by converting a new brake MC (47200-35011 ) and swapping over the reservoir, end cap and taking out the end valve. Good to go!

An FST in Hawaii would be so cool. It‘s snowing here right now.
 
Got links painted and the 40 sitting on its own weight again.

Was given some yellow fog lights by a friend. I really like the look, a little bigger than stock but I think still in the spirit.

Also took care of an oil leak, hence the puddle on the pic :hillbilly:

Now I really have to redo that terrible front cross member!
