looking to remove the clock in the 1960 for service. We have the center console apart so we can access rear of clock. It appears the clock will remove out of the front of the clock housing but is locked in place with some 'blocks' and 'stops'. Don't want to break anything....anyone know how to remove the clock itself without removing the housing???

Thank you in advance!
The removal and install of the 60 clock is tough. Once loosened the clock is removed and pulled out from the front. The clock housing when you reach around the cowling is turned clockwise. While you are turning the housing push it in towards the back of the car. So as your standing in front of the car looking at the back of the clock it is turned to the right. While you are doing this with the housing in the back, with your other hand push in on the chrome ring on the front of the clock and push it in and try to turn that counter clockwise at the same time.
The reason why you must push in on the clock while turning is to push in the tension/ground spring so the clock will disengage.
While out, inject a drop of oil in the hard to reach pivot points, don't apply oil on the gears. I went to a model airplane/hobby shop and bought a long needle like oil applicator, for $5.
While the clock is out, install an inline fuse for safety
