Wiper door assembly
I recently bought a '68 corvette that needs some work. When I got it the wiper door assembly was totally taken apart and in pieces mixed in with other random parts. I bought a new vacuum actuator and vacuum hoses but I don't know exactly what I'm missing or exactly how to put it back together.
Does anyone have an exploded view or video or something that could help?

I decided to adjust the wiper door on mine to even out the gap between the door and the hood, well.... taking it off was easy but putting it back together...oh boy... I must have lost 2 of those plastic washers as they dropped in that mystery hole behind the fenders, only then I closed those holes off by stuffing rags in them.
I would recommend the AIM or maybe someone can scan the pages for you when it comes to the vacuum. Also, I think Willcox has some diagrams.
Good luck

Look at the bolt holes in the wiper door. Did the attaching bolts shear off and leave part of the bolt inside? This is a common occurrence when people remove the wiper doors. I have a couple of suggestions if you have this problem.
