hymodyne Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 I've unattached the fuel line from the tank at the tank, removed the exhaust system, removed the rear shocks; for the chassis, the rearmost bolts on either side of the rear spring, the two long bolts in the back seat area, two bolts on a side for the outriggers just ahead of the driver and passenger seats; and one each on the front outrigger which has one bolt inside on the floor, the other outside in the engine compartment. I've also removed the bolt connecting the suspension struts from their mounting point in the underside of the body. By my count, that leaves me only one bolt each, the outers on the outriggers that connect to the front of the body shell. Despite all of the connection points being unbolted, when I raise the body, the frame follows. help with what is most likely an obvious oversight, as the restoration goes on. Hym
GT6 Nick Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 There are two bolts hidden under the carpet and sound deadening tar on the rear parcel shelf (where the optional rear seat is fitted). Not easy to find without a lot of scraping. The bolts go directly into the chassis rails, not outriggers.
JMH Posted July 5, 2010 Posted July 5, 2010 Seat belt attachments? Hand brake cabling? If an US spec car, then you might have the chassis rail extensions at the boot floor (= two more bolts)?
