Hey guys does anybody hae a diagram or the locations of the bolts that hold the shell on to the pan on a 68 fastback? how many are there?
I need to get this shell off so I can send the pan out for sandblasting and sealing.

Dont have a diagram but there are about 7 on each side under the rockers, 4 big ones up front by the pedal assembly and the tunnel that I think are 19s, and about 4 big 17 or 19s under the back seat and 4 regular ones under the back seat as well. Just take off all you find and then '''''''shake''''''', where ever its tight look for one you missed!! Laughing

Don't forget to unhook the brake fluid res lines, and the steering column. The lines are the easiest to forget, but there are also 2 more bolts on the top of the front axle (right above the beam clamps), and 2 more hidden in the rear load floor (above the rear shocks).
