Interior Disassembly & Cleaning
At 18:21 in
IT'S TIME! Buying Our First Former NASCAR Race Car! (Former Busch Series Monte Carlo)
What happens here
With exterior panels removed, the focus shifts to the car's interior. The old oil tank is drained using an adjustable wrench and then removed. The oil tank is dated 'OT 129 1876,' indicating it was originally from Bobby Labonte's #18 car, chassis #76. The electronics panel, containing MSD ignition boxes labeled '2051,' is unbolted and carefully removed. The battery is also removed, revealing it was installed in June 2007. The crew takes out the rear heat exchanger, and the entire interior is vacuumed to remove dirt and debris, with a goal of preparing it for a thorough wash.
Goal: Remove interior components and clean the cockpit.
