Post #4, 4/17/10 Engine Removal


65 Mustang Restoration




Now we're cooking,,, the engine is out,, and ahead of schedule. What a mess,, tranny fluid all over the floor,, thank goodness for oil dry. It would have been nice of the engineers to have installed a drain plug in the tranny pan.





Here's the tag on the top of the intake manifold.


And for you driveshaft specialist, here's what it looked like after a round of brake clean. There are several strips on it.



The tape is centered on the front u-joint,,, 1st strip looks to be green,,, the next pair are green & orange,, and the last pair,,, I couldn't tell what color was there.


And here are a couple of pics of why I have to Redo the floor pans again,,, some people really do crappy work!!!




Well,, there's a huge swap meet in the morning across town,,, hopefully I'll find some actual mustang parts this time. If nothing else,, I will buy a bunch of tools I'll be needing. CYA
