Over the last two days I finished getting the front clip, cab, and engine/trans out. Now I'm just left with a bare frame and suspension.
I used my engine hoist for almost everything and made my life incredibly easy.
Two days ago I began removing the fenders, hood, and the interior. It was relatively straight forward and only took a few hours. Ive been taking my time with the wiring as I'm trying to keep it all intact so when it comes time to wire the 49' it should be a cakewalk. If I wasn't keeping anything I could have had this truck apart much sooner.
Finished up for the night.
The next day after work I started by building a cart I would be able to place the cab on so I'd be able to roll it around. It will also come in handy when I remove the 5 window cab. That way ill be able to roll it into the garage and deal with rust issues with it at a decent height.
The cart is just over 2ft tall and 4ft square.
Although probably not strong enough I used my engine leveller mounted to the seatbelt studs and used some ratchet straps just incase something failed.
Looks ghetto...
The moment of truth!
It got away from me a bit and was a bit difficult to get the cab on to the cart. If it was level or if I had another person it would have been simple.
