Biohazard
Beginning the restoration of the HVAC assembly.
Here's a shot of the evaporator and heater core housing. Shot many pics to aid in re-assembly.
Evaporator fins mushed-in in a few places. Started combing them straight with a small screwdriver.
Got the cover off the evaporator housing. All this insulation, padding, and whatever needs disinfecting -- probably more importantly than any other part of the car.
Filthy, nasty debris screen:
There was dirt, dust, dog hair, spiderwebs, and an old paper parking stub up in there.
Ordered the Detroit Mopar Technologies full HVAC resto kit today. Along with copious amounts of disinfecting ammonia, I have quite the project ahead of me.
