I got a 62 bird in the manuAl it shows TWO HOLD DOWN SPRINGS ON EACH BRAKE SHOE IS THIS RIGHT WHEN I PULLED DRUMS THEIRS ONLY ONE Reply When you say it needs a new dash, are you interested in replacing the instruments? dash pad? or the complete dash?

Replaced tires to drive from Florida to Ma, original spare in ttrunk.Original everything mechanically.
