Boy you sure are making that job really hard. You just need to take the whole body off, drop the frame, and get a fiberglass shell (like a funny car) to cover it all up. Inside you'll have easy access to work on the engine and/or transmission, all the while enjoying the wonderful music of the PSD while cruising down the road.
Definitely looking forward to seeing the finished product!

I've been awake since friday @ 7am so ill keep it short
24 straight hours of metal work got the trans where it needa to be on a temporary mount
spent most of that time working on motor mt revisions that were a epic fail.
tomorrow I try again but with a lil a sleep and the lessons of the failed attempt behind me.
I forgot we took 3 hrs off and tour the best junkyard ever. Acres of woods full of cars and trucks from the 60's and 70's. I will be going back to get 2 1970's. International Loadstar dashboards to make one wide enough to fit my truck

Maybe some liquor in it would help. An all nighter sounds rough for wrenching. I wrenched from noon to midnight yesterday and this morning I feel like someone kicked my ***.
