What a bloody nightmare...if you ever need to take an engine out, best to get a second pair of hands to help. 2 trolley jacks, an old wooden pallet and 4 heavy-duty castors later and the engine is out...ahhhh (big sigh of relief!) I kept the engine and gearbox together which made for one mighty lump to shift around. I won't go into all the gory details but to say there were a few pitfalls along the way would be an understatement...onwards and upwards.
Oh, the little cut-out in the rear panel is where the car must have been reversed into a post or spike or something..it was beneath the bumper; the panel had a nasty dent in it that there was no way to beat out. The rear valence was also destroyed. I cut it out and have a small section to weld-in taken from a scrapped 914.
