Ok another big update from this weekend. I finally have the engine bay completely stripped down and am ready to start the paint prep process. Here are some pics of the last big parts coming off:
Removed the from bumper covers, impact bar and a few other clips and pieces so I can get at the core support to paint it:
Next up was the A/C box. It took me a little while to figure out where all of the bolts were and then to carefully scrape it off the firewall but eventually it came out. I am going to keep my AC so I will cleaning these pieces off and reinstalling them.
Top cover off:
Nasty stuff in there!
I then pulled the rest of the stuff in there:
The rest of the shock and spindle assembly:
Cruise control module and vacuum tank. These will not be going back in, so they are for sale if anyone wants them?
Bunch of zip ties, tape and crap I've taken off the car:
Busy garage!
Next up is power washing the engine bay and getting it ready for paint. I feel like I've hit a milestone here where I stop taking parts off and start cleaning things up now!
