So its about 8am saturday and I just put the parts car on blocks and am about to swap over to my car both fenders, front bumper, hood, all four doors(maybe 3), headlight mounting assembly, headlight assemblies and a few various trim parts...
this may seem like plenty of time to some and may sound impossible to others but I am doing this myself for the most part and during which I have a guy coming over later to buy the seats off of me from the parts car and I have another guy coming at some point to check out and possibly buy an engine I have half built from a previous project that I was forced to sell...
and both cars have to be back together by tomorrow afternoon with the parts car on my trailor wish me luck

actually I moved out of my parents house about a month ago but all my tools are here and they are getting the house ready to sell so my garage is storage now and Its taking my about a collective hour just to find my tools... not to mention I wasted some time trying to pull the bumper cover off instead of the whole thing(used to working on older muscle)... oh well
all 4 doors are off
time to start stripping my car now
smart asses

sorry some rusted bumper mounting bolts are giving me a tough time so they are soaking in some pb
my last name is not stefanik and the other thread was simply to ask whats useful in this rolling chassis once I can get myself a turbo motor to build and drop in... you guys made it drawn out...
sorry my body panel swap is boring

yup bolts broke but everything on the parts car is fine so ill use that.
and bumper was siezed on but my BFH took care of that...
so heres the update
new drivers side fender is on my car as well as the fender liner(took me a few minutes to line up the fender) which I had to replace with the one from the parts car because it was torn...
I put the driver wheel back on and now Im on to passenger side while I soak the bumper bracket bolts in pb because the nuts are welded to the frame so I DO NOT want to snap these bolts...

ok time for an update...
passenger fender and liner is out as well as the cracked up headlight mounting assembly.
I found some vacuum/washer fluid hose lying around from when I did the vacuum lines on my bike. just the perfect length to replace the hose for the windshield washers and headlight washers. so I bypassed the headlight washers and dismounted the wiper assemblies from the good headlight mount assembly...
Just have to deal with a snapped bolt from the old onestuck in the frame then I will be putting on the new one as well as the fender and fender liner
