Body removal

I conquered removing the trunk and wiring today.  Took out the lights and bagged em.
Pulled front and rear bumpers.  Front bumper needs replacing it's a little knackered.
Then moved to the interior that got vacuumed out *again* and on to the front fender.
  Some bolts let go like they were put in yesterday, some don't give up.
So start by spraying EVERY bolt and thread you see with PB blaster before you get to it.
If this stuff came in cologne bottles, I'd use it - its that good.

 There are 5 lbs of bolts that hold on a 7 lb fender.  Just always have a 7/16" AND a 1/2" wrench
with you- there's some of both on every corner of the vehicle

4  internal along the vertical stripe in the picture below (only 7/16" I think)
3  internal around top near dash/ windshield frame bolts, 2 with oval washers
3 screws bottom rear outside of fender, had to remove with vice grips- need new ones
3 to the air dam under the bumper and lights
2 inside the grill area
9 obvious along the length of the hood, 1 longer one 2nd from the front
2 screws for the hood bumper


Pleasantly surprised on this one- A lot of B's have rot here- not this side. 
If you'll notice, the original color was Mallard Green.  Not a bad color choice to go back to either.



No rust again on the bottom of the fender, but you can see how much dust/dirt
was collected that would eventually rust it out... need a new splash shield gasket



The undercoating and splash shield, nice and tidy.  It did its job here...



The chassis of the B.  Note the two huge nuts that hold on the door hinges,  Simple KISS engineering!
