rusty bolts…..

Got more fasteners off the pan to body connection. They are very rusty so I’m taking my time and making sure to get them out when i can. I broke one off and some of the others in the front underside are just spinning in place so the body threaded part must be just gone.

So tonight i removed:

  • 7 pan bolts drivers side (1 broke off , 1 spins in place) total of 9
  • 7 pan bolts passenger side ( 2 spin in place) total of 9
  • 4 pan bolts interior under back seat

which leaves remaining:

  • 4 bolts that hold the body to the cross tube under back seat i missed these somehow
  • 2 large bolts underneath the front cross member.
  • clutch cable
  • battery area cables to the starter

Slowly but surely getting there. I lifted the body in front as a test and it does separate a bit so I dont think it will be a problem getting it loose once there rest of the fasteners are out of the way.
