No worries. My Dad owns the engine hoist, so I have to get it from
him first. We've used it to pull the engine and trans out of the
Mustang. it should work fine for the Pantera. But it's not stored
at my house so I have to wait for Dad to bring it over.<br>
<br>
I called him today because I was ready for it. He was ripping apart
the main bathroom. Good Lord! He should have called -me- to help.
I offered while on the phone with him and he said no need... already
had it all done. Holy Cats!<br>
<br>
Anyway, yea.... Once the engine hoist is over here, I'll have help
to pull it all out.<br>
<br>
If I had more time, I'd set up an Internet camera in the garage so
you all could watch.<br>

[TPR] Asa's Sunday update Aug 5<br>
</font> </div>
<br>
Engine is now totally assembled. Last thing to go
on today was the fuel <br>
pump, right after the Armando oil pan.<br>
<br>
Now waiting on the engine hoist to move things.<br>
<br>
Hammered out the front valance so it doesn't look
so bad and made room <br>
for the new radiator. Installed the new racing
harness on the drivers <br>
side. I believe I am all caught up, just need the
engine hoist which <br>
will be coming over later. I'll probably begin
the pull tomorrow <br>
night. Since I have some down time, I'll probably
order my tires.<br>
<br>
I'm starting to feel like this might be possible.
:)<br>
