The hard part is pulling all the hoses and coolant lines completely out, not to mention the 6 gauge 12 volt lines coming from the rear electrical panel, of which I have pulled out with out cutting ( I just know they are gonna come in handy for something sooner or later :lol: ) them. Julio, of course I am :lol: :lol: , still only found 20 cents, boy those NY'ers hang on to their dough tight :P :P :P :lol: wonder if they vacuumed them over at NJT in New Joyzy :lol:

Make sure you save all that heavy gage wire. Saves more dimes. I do not know if the 15 has the 12v coolant pumps. If so save those for sure. You will need them to pump coolant to the dash. You are knocking a big dent in it lately. Looking good. don't look up, jus keep diggin LOL!!!

This has been quite interesting, discovering an additional 24 cubic foot of space attached to the rear bay :D :D , i'll be looking at this space for the holding tanks, and gen fuel tank. This should free up quite a bit of the rear bay I hope. :D

After a few weeks of de-construction of our eagle (ripping out the ac, pulling the floors out replacing rotted away floor supports) thought it was time to give the ol' gal a break and clean her up a bit so I can start all over again :shock:. So... I decided to bring her over to the house where we could spiffy her up. :D

We don't take up too much room in the drive way, or do we? :lol:
Image

Gee, if only the garage was bigger so I could get her (and me!) outta the sun :roll:

Here is all the shade you get mister lol

Mom and Cheryl coming out to inspect. :o

More to come... :D
