Well with a trip to the vampire and parts chasing I got a good half day in taking the 49 apart. I guess that means I have put in about 2 1/2 days getting it to this point. The front fenders are off and disassembled. The engine will come out when I get the transmission disconnected from the chassis and drive shaft. I take it apart and determine what it needs. But I expect to do a complete overhaul, bore it, pistons rings, mains, rods and cam bearings. With some luck I should get it out and mostly apart this weekend.
The following pics should give you an idea how far apart the car is.
