    is it possible.

    Is it possible to remove and replace header metal cover under visor without disturbing visor ? And if so can fender welting be used here? 29 Murray Fordor.

    No, and might have to replace wood over F. doors if it doesn't jive with header, and that requires peeling back top Then there's headliner at front and windscreen removal and possible interior A pillar trim. Fortunately, you have all Winter.. This is how A's grow on you. The good thing is they will clean out the fuzz in your pockets. Good time to pull the tank for cleaning while the W/S is out and don't forget the dome light wiring and wire or vacuum line for wiper..Keeping it simple: IF IT'S IN YOUR WAY, MOVE IT. Oh I misread, your only replacing the metal cover and not the wood. Now look how much you're going to miss out on.

      OMG Mark I almost Thru up my grandmother until I got to end of your reply.LOL, just looking on advice if this can be replaced by just pulling nails and screws , without removing visor and related parts, windshield frame and hinge assembly already removed.

    Why do you want to remove it?

      Hey Mike , its rusted beyond repair and I have another , no problem to remove it but was just wondering about re nailing , nails are on challenging angle with visor still attached.

    I am thinking you could remove it with the visor in place, and use the fender welting. Renailing the cover back may be tough with the visor there, but i’m sure you can figure something out.

      Phew, I just about made up my mind I will NEVER change the header metal cover. LOL

        Ya winter pretty cold and dreary here and that cover job sure won't warm things up.. have cover removed today. but as Mitch said I am going to have to come up with a way to re nail, nails are on a extreme angle for hammering.

        Use screws and if the slots bother you fill them in. This would fool any judge

        thinking about small screws would be faster and just as effective, as for judges got 3 of them , grandsons .. 6 years , 3 years and 6 months and they're all that matters to me.. LOL
