body off
Posted: Fri Dec 30, 2005 7:46 pm
help.
On Type 36(coupe)
I need benefit from your practical experience when removing body:
Going this far...
PO put Jute over trans tunnel over then new spyder frame. (would hold
water!)
Body being redone from gel coat up.
need all new shocks and springs,
going through everything in chassis
fresh motor
fresh diff gears (3.77)
figure the above easier without the body, so it can be at shop
chassis in my shop
Am I being stupid????????????
Items to remove, disconnect:
Carbs,
wiring power lead
brake line from mc
clutch line from mc
throttle cable at carbs
speedo drive(haven't found)
battery cable to starter
gas line at tank(tank to be removed, too)
Does the motor come out with trans? I assume. could with body in
place?
Is trans re-buildable without spec tools?
Thanks
