Glad i'm not doing it :) Printed of though thanks ;)

[MichiganTeddyBear]

is that ALL it takes???

damn, not for the faint of heart, thats for sure!

[hrmwrm]

so that's what, a couple of hours? looks like a lot written out. hahahaha. think i dropped the whole drivetrain in 2 conti's, swapped one carriage for the other and re-installed in less time than it probably takes for just removal of an mkviii engine.

Don't take that long if you use a cutting torch.About one hour if you don't set the car on fire. :eek:

True story
I had my wife do all the interior (butt and Tuck ) all white seats headliner all on a 1954 ford 2 door.

Was down at my friends salvage yard cutting a hole for the new four speed .And YES I cought the new front seat on FIRE:eek: any way cut the bolts off the seat and saved the rest of the car.:o
Went home with 2 junk bucket seats for her to redo.:boohoo:To make it short she fixed them for me. But not without a few words.

ROFL! :)

54 fords must have had a hex on them. My first tranny rebuild was on one. I was 14. We finally get it done and go for a ride. Something about the heater was messed up, and about 3 blocks into the ride the exhaust manifolds start heating up, and of course my greasy meatball hands had been all over them. SMOKE rolling in through the dash, liked to gas us. I suppose I should mention that my folks had a big argument about whether or not they were going to get married before I was born, and decided to. So they went to a state where fast marriages happen, and of course the 54 ford blew up on the way home. Being the experts they were they bought a 53 for parts, of course the 53 was a flat head, and the 54 was over head valve. I swear it was enough to make me go to Studebaker....:)
