Part 2: Starting the Project
Everett Gross

Some of these pictures are from my photo album. This is just another perspective of what the rear and the front look like.

Look at all those goodies that came with it. It's time to unload and start tearing this future street beast apart.

After unloading everything I took off the fenders, hood and nose. Then I stripped out the insides and unbolted the body. Next I got 4 other guys and a boy to help me remove the body. I set concrete blocks outside the body and slid 4x4 treated lumber under it and built up the blocks higher and higher as we went. When we attained the correct height we pushed the chassis out from underneath the frame. We lowered it back down after removing the chassis to keep younger children from playing around it and having it accidentally fall on them. Be safe around you and your children.
