Step one - Remove engine and trans
Step two - Use heat gun for hours
Step Three - Use paint thinner for the rest
Step Four -repaint over factory paint
I am so glad this is done

Unreal. You forgot to mention the OTHER Step 4 and a new Step 6:

4. Sand for hours, fill spot welds, sand for hours, find spots you missed, refill and glaze, sand for hours, blow weird things out of your nose for 4 days.

5. Repaint over factory paint

6. Make PI friends extremely jealous

Looks just fabulous. Keep us posted.
