Re: Stewart's 1955 Packard 400

The load arm retaining tool is holding. Its been 7 days since I removed all the car chucks around it. I tightened it up first and took the load off the suspension as I didn't want any nasty surprises.
After a little wire brushing the numbers stenciled to the side of the frame appeared. They are not as clear as what Henry had on his Clipper way back when he did his but that is diffidently what they are.
I have a question. Pretend for a minute that I have never dismantled a Packard before. In the last two images below can I remove the bolts without any issues? They are all connected to the torsion bars in one way or another but there are parts that I think need to be removed/cleaned/inspected. Can't find anything that says I can't remove them just being cautious.
