    73 Grabber,
    I have no clue how to remove the arm rest from the doors on my 73 Grabber project car. Same goes for the door release handle. Can't see how this comes off. The armrest is simple on a pre 73 but I need to figure out how to do it on my 73 without tearing anything up. The two screws holding on the main part of the armrest is a no brainer but how do I detatch the upper arm?? Thanx in advance.

    Yes....behind the chrome bezel is a phillips screw. Pry off the chrome bezel and you will see it.

    On the door handles, the black part of the cup needs to be pryed out. Once you remove the black part of the cup, you will see a phillips screw to remove.

    Thanx!! Glad I joined this forum! Couldn't have done it without you. Now I need to tackle removing the side glass, regulator, doorhandle and lock mechanism. Hope this is more straightforward but if anyone has advice, I listening.
