    Well, the good news is that the screws holding the cap the thermostat cover thread into the plastic housing and don’t seem to ever get rusted in place. I would pull the electrical panel out of the way, or maybe just removing the power pack would give decent access to the screws.

    Took the panel loose, which was easy. Found one of the cover bolts underneath had backed out, so it was worthwhile for that alone.

    Cover screws on tst box came out with no resistance as you predicted. It’s pretty clear from the intact paint film that they’d not been out since the the motor was built up. BUT, the cover is stuck on solidly and I’m afraid to pry on it very hard. After all, the whole thing IS plastic and almost fifty years old at a minimum. So I stopped to think about it.
