At the home front

So i have PK back at my home and my Wife has agreed to see the garage look like the beach at Normandy for a while.

Working under a car is great because you can lay on your back and if you thought things were tight there try working under a this guy with a 6 in ground clearance. So step one take the motor off so I can work on it and the body separate.

So here is the motor in all of its rusty dirty glory. This is the better looking side it, I also wanted to point out here that you can see something that looks like bailing or picture frame wire holding on the muffler...IT IS BAILING WIRE. Also the dude that owned it previous also (i will come to find out) use bend nails in place of cotter pins.

Motor is out and here is all the scramble that is left behind. Another 1.5tons of dirt to be removed this is just the loose stuff, and a bunch of frayed cables to be replaced.
