Started stripping the Duster down yesterday, ready for its interior/electrics refurb and the new 360

Some pics (page 5&6)

Lots still to do, especially after seeing the lack of metal on the inner wing and floor pans

Just for referance, pulling the motor with the torque converter attached is the hard way to do it and whatever you do don't try to put it back in that way, you will almost certainly cause damage.

Was the easyest engine we've ever pulled, came out like a dream

But the advice is noted for when the new tranny and engine go in

What we thought was a patch panel welded on the inner wing was actually stuck on with filler then painted over and made to look like a weld

Gonna need two new inner wings and two floor pan patch panel. Any recomendations on the cheapest place to get these?
