Re: Removing entire front end sheet metal - advice please!

I would start with the hood.Then it's out of the way so you cn get to the rest easier.Grille and breakables next.Don't forget to bag and tag the shims,they will give you a good start point for reassembly.Label to position on each stack.Then the hood latch,hinges,battery tray,wiring(tag carefully) and cowl.Inner fenders then The rad support bolts underneath.Fenders should be about all that's left.PB Blaster is gonna be your friend.I would suggest you buy a front fender bolt kit since I have yet to see the J nuts for the front fenderwell lips come off without breaking some.
Now go spray it with PB about once every 12 hours or so until you start.


BTW this is just a general overveiw so I may have left out a few things but it should get you going.It's been a while since I've done one.
