UPS guy showed up today with the front bolster, er, I mean the steering gear housing. Thanks David (Chown)!
Now the big challenge will be resisting the urge to just slap it on and get everything else back together and try to start 'er up!
Yipeee!
Now, how do I get the "donor" tag off so I can put my "original" one back on? I don't see anything in the service manuals about that (not like it would be an expected service item, I suppose)...

Take a small putty knife and carefully work it under the tag and slowly work it towards each corner gently prying upward.

If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem.

Rivets?
Thanks BD,
Is it just riveted on somehow? And, so can I expect some serious rust back there?

When you have worked the putty knife in... from the opposite side until it touches the shank of the rivet, then drive another in right under it. The extra thickness will start the rivet on its' way out. The distortion to the tag will be minimal, and the rivets can be re-used.
