Last night:
Removed front trunk lid. (Kind of scary, since I was afraid I could have cracked it at any moment.
Removed heater blower motor. This will need terminals in order to reattach it. The wires ran through a cable clamp which, by the time I was done fighting with it, had a stripped off screw head.
Attempted to remove radiator. 7/16" bolt head, and completely rusted. I decided that it would be better to wait until the morning to continue to fight with this with more light.
I still need to start removing the internals: Seats, dash, pedals. The carpeting really needs to be replaced. It's old, and kind of crunchy. I don't know what color the car is going to be, so I am going to wait to remove it. Black carpetting would be nice, but if I go with something that won't match, it'll be ugly.
Since I need to get to everything under the body anyway, I think I am going to remove the body before I get the engine out. It'll make the whole thing easier. Since I've got to do both, I might as well take the body off first.
