Re: My First Frame Off Resto/Build

Before you remove ANYTHING take lots of pics! As you remove a part take close up pics of how it mounts, any special bolts that it has, which wire went where, etc. After a few months of being apart even things that seem simple will make you scratch your head or ass trying to remember how it goes together. Also if you keep a notebook and as a part comes off, right down if you need to replace it with new, used, or just repaint it. That way when it is all tore apart you know what needs to be bought, what needs to be fixed etc. Also if something has to come apart in a certain order make yourself some notes. That way when you put your dash all together, you don't have to take it back apart because the dashpad has to go on first. (just an example) The more pics and notes you have, the easier it will be to put it back together. Good luck. It will be a very rewarding experiance!
