Got around to getting the engine out. Started by removing the front clip. One of the fenders was green and had evidence of more animal life taking up residence in the car.
Getting ready to pull the engine, hoping the front subframe doesn't rip away from the car just yet.
The transmission crossmember was rusted in place and I couldn't get the bolts to turn. I was bent on pulling the engine and transmission in one piece. Enter the Sawzall!
5 Minutes later and it's FREE!
Two things I learned: #1 the engine turns over easily. I may have a rebuildable block (If I don't go with a 4V 5.4 or a newer 351W) and second, while I found these style of wheel dollies to be almost totally useless for moving the car car around, they do make a great FMX transmission dolly.
