'85 Short Bed 4X4

[FunKing85]

Did alot of thinking last night on where to progress from here, only logical solution is to start with the removing the motor. Its something ive never done before, but I can think my way through it, and i have the convenience of another truck to drive while its out. While the motor is out, I have a laundry list of items to fix,
- Motor crossmember
- Motor Mounts
- any other ghetto weld job i see
-crazy wiring
-replace inner fender apron
-something im forgetting
-all the other things i'll be appalled at when i find them
- fix/rebuild/make the motor pretty.

I cant decide weather to take the grille and radiator support off before i pull the motor. I think it would make my life alot easier, plus i need to do alot of work to it and the lights. etc. Plus it may make the replacement inner fender apron easier to install (passenger side) I like to do the project start to finish in my head and have a realll nice plan to disregard when i run into something unexpected.
