Finally got the drivetrain out of the parts donor today. Spring has been slow in arriving this year, so I have put off the final plucking of the engine/gearbox unit in my unheated garage until it warmed up a bit.
Rust and other corrosion were a serious problem, as were years of oil and other fluids dribbling throughout the engine compartment.
The donor car is back on its tires and has been rolled out of the garage. Mark Strohm stopped over to help remove the racer from the trailer and it has been rolled into the garage for a similar extraction. Hopefully it will take less time to remove as there is no rust nor slime to deal with.
