Chop em up Johnny! 140-160

So the time has come to cut up the 71 142e that was totaled a couple years ago, The donor body is all ready for everything from the wrecked one. I'll be moving in Jan as well which has lit a fire under my ass, Got to have the shell re-assembled by the end of Dec. The donor 142 is a 70s, so everything is coming out of the 71e. So far the worst part was getting the heater core, dash etc out without having a fit. Everything else has unbolted smoothly. Looking forward to measuring the rear trailing arms between the two years, I was reading about a few differences between the years of 70 & 71.

Anyways Here's a couple pic's I thought some of you would be interested in checking out, I will post up more of the deconstruction as well as assembly. The pile of scrap metal is getting bigger by the night! Finally had a reason to buy a sawzall.

Enjoy.
