Figured I would start a thread of my build, Began with a 70 lesabre 4 door, decent shape 350 4 barrel Interior flawless Things to do: Air ride suspension Headers Full exhaust Minor engine work ( mostly freshening up) Body work Paint- two tone matte and gloss black General clean up...not a complete restore, but enough to drive around and be happy
Got to work on it with the wife for a bit today, it was a wonderful 35 degrees in the garage today, got the bell housing bolts undone, motor mounts unbolted and various nonsense unhooked, just need some chain and an extra pair of hands to get this motor out Woo! Sucks I won't be able to work on it this week due to traveling for work, but slow progress is still progress!!
Just got back from Pittsburgh yesterday and was chomping at the bit to get back out in the garage unfortunately I didn't get to do anything yesterday as we needed to spruce a few things up around the house for an appraisal. I did however get to tear into it today.. Got the bumper off and most of the core support bolts out with little to no forceful persuasion, headlights and covers off and ready to be sent to sand and paint Just need an extra set of hands to lift this motor out of this huge engine bay! Maybe tomorrow I'll take the grills off and sand them down as well.
