Did I miss something
Why is the dash coming out, are you doing a heater core ?MODS- TOO MANYComment

If you need to remove the steering column, go for the U bolt down near the pedals. When I was changing the ignition switch, it was much easier to take the column out at that point than taking it out bit by bit (you'd need a puller for that too
)

No need to take off the column mate. You are bringing back loads of memories. I was doing heaps of them back in 95,96 in the UK, they were going on fire due to the dimdip resistor rubbing on the bodywork causing a short. Anyway i wont bore u with that.
Keep up the good work it will b worth it mate.
Best tool for that job is the cordless screwdriver hey

A few weeks at this rate im going. Hopefully by the end of this week the motor will be ready to come out. Im in no rush as i would prefer to have the coilovers installed whilst the car is in the garage and ill need to save for that. Realistically ive got until april to finish the car!
