So, at first glance it's not terrible I guess but it needs work. I guess I should do what any good project manager would do. I began by tearing everything apart and then putting it in a pile. I labeled nothing and used my keen memory to remember how it all went back together.

The pics will be scattered. Some times you get into the zone and don't stop to snap pics. First off was the top and nose cone. I like that I have a metal body. Mainly because I'll be able to weld new studs on to the places where I snapped three off I've heard tale of a mystery fluid that can help that from happening. I'll look for that later.

Next was the dash. That was all very easy for the most part. If anyone has the size of the plastic rivets I need to put it back I would appreciate it... Also, the brake pedal came out along with the rubber mat floor. Next up was the engine compartment. The whole thing is a mess. The old foam was sloughing off, the battery tray and gas tank floor was rusting badly, the wiring looked atrocious and I just wanted to hit the reset button.

So I tore the foam out and everything that was bolted down. More on the engine later

I'll spare you the details on how I got it out of the shop since the crawler is on jack stands and can't move but needless to say I got it out and up to the driveway so I could pressure wash it.
