Day 10

Today me and my friend Matt removed every last scrap from the car including speedo cable, seats and fuel pumps. The seats had to be cut out in the end and the only thing left on the car is the handbrake cable, which just won't budge, so it'll stay as is.

The rear subframe has been removed aswell, bringing with it the diff and rear suspension, so thats very handy. Just the front one to go now and the shell can go. It should be much easier than the rear, no huge heavy diff ready to fall on us. The only tricky part was doing it in such a way that the coils didn't go off like a gun when the bolts came off. I admit it got a bit nervy when the last bolt was removed and the rear of the car lifted about a foot off the axlestands. Still, no harm done. Next time I think I'll bring some spring compressors though.
