This has been a day of preparation. We have disconnected the wiring and "plumbing" connections on the engine. The fuel tank has been emptied and the carburetters and linkage removed. The exhaust header was also disconnected.
The shop has been cleaned and organized and the engine hoist has been setup. Monday morning the motor and transmission mounts will be disconnected and removed from the car.
From there, the engine will be stripped and delivered to the machine shop for balancing and blueprinting and the transmission will be torn down and rebuilt to its original specification.
The frame will be sandblasted to remove all paint and rust and a light primer coat applied in preparation for the necessary welding.
Stay tuned, this is exciting.
Tom
