Removed the rest of the chrome trim and fenders. Wiring harness removed was found to be to brittle and bare to be reused. All engine components (except manifold) removed. Water Distribution tube had to be gently persuaded with 2 files, vice grips, piece of broken hacksaw blade (as a spacer) and a dent puller and finally came out in good condition. Completely disassembled body and interior, logging the sequence and parts as each were bagged and stored in their identified bag and box. Cleaned and stripped inside body floor pan, trunk and roof. Just a few small places rusted through was treated and coated with POR-15 products. Unbolted body from frame and ready to lift off.
