MADLT1:
you may not have to remove the dash,just remove the A pillars and unscrew all the srews along the top of the dash and remove the top crash pad?

Cameron 77C3:
Been here and done this with DASH PAD INSTALLED

Step one:-  You need the right tools.  Forget the 1/2" drive here.  You will need a 3/8" socket drive.

1 9/16" DEEP socket
1  ratchet
1  universal
1 VERY long extansion bar

If ya cant remove it all in 1/2 an hour then there is some major wrong with how your boosater is fitted.  Possibley butchers have been at it.  Being a left hook (original) you should have no problems.

Let us know how ya go ;42

77CVT:
A 3/8 drive would make some extra room.  Even with air tools it was an effort to get the nuts off!

humphbri:
I'll buy myself a universal today and give it a try.  Thanks for the advice.

BTW I reinstalled my original Delco AM/FM stereo today and was expecting it to sound crappy, especially as the 75s only have the front speakers and mine are original. Actually, all things considered, the radio doesn't sound too bad. It's not going to damage anyone's ears but the sound it strong and the reception is better than the high-end system I replaced.

Thanks everyone;ay

I'm told that the older Delcos can be a pretty heavy drain on the battery while the car is not being used. May not be a problem in your case ... just something to keep an eye on.
