Still slowly moving forward! Found a piece of history under the back seat. I believe that was the first year I was able to vote... (No, I didn' tvote for him)... I needed to drill a hole in the floor under the back seat so I could get the 1/2" bolt holding one of the gas/brake line clips. Bolt currently soaking...
Once I get this bolt out I think I will pretty quickly have the gas line and brake line off. THEN serious work descaling frame/wire wheel, etc. Followed by power wash, prime and paint everything underneath. Then re-assemble firewall and back with the new parts...
I'm going to go up to the firewall for now because I want to rebuild the front suspension while the old engine is in so it will be easier to get the front springs back in with the engine and front-end weight on them.
