I removed the core support too. I completely removed the radiator. You don't want that hanging around to get damaged. When you remove it, put it somewhere that it won't get stepped on. (tip of the day) LOL

Removing the core support wasn't hard as one side was so rotted, it wasn't even fastened anymore! (I didn't even know it until now)

I left the inner fenders attached to the outers as I will only be using 1 of these. Today I have to seperate that one.

One problem area I did find was where the inner fenders attach to the core support. I got one bolt out but no good on the others. Since my inners are shot and I have new ones, I just used a jigsaw with a metal cutting blade and cut them apart.

Now comes the fun; degreasing, sandblasting, grinding, welding, body work, priming, painting, re-assembling, etc, etc. LOL Its gonna be a rough week but I wouldn't have it any other way. LOL
