The process is to pull out the car into the driveway(which yes is gravel) lay down plywood behind the car so the engine hoist can be moved easily, and pull the engine. Then drop it in the back of a pick-up and off it goes to rebuild land. Really it is not difficult at all. Hope to see you there Doug.

The engine is an iron block, aluminum heads. The last time we did this was when the old engine was pulled and it was a standard Cleveland, iron block, iron heads. Again not particularly difficult.

As it has been said other times many hands make light work. In the mean time I will be disconnecting coolant hoses, taking out the chassis brace, etc, so we can get it out in about an hour on the 22nd.


What an incredible saga Chris! Wish I was there to help you.

Best wishes!
Please keep us updated on your progress.
