well, took a break for the day
UPDATE:--everything except t-arms out of the back of car (they're rusty but are cleaning up pretty well). finally got the top bolts CUT out of the shocks, did a (what you guys call a Bubba) fix on the rear frame crossmember after i broke the bolt off, pulled radiator and discovered that the support does NOT have to be replaced (damn shop must think i'm just a stupid broad), motor is being pulled this upcoming week thanks to a neighbor with a picker. and started contacting the members on the forum with the crossmembers for sale. if i order the parts next week, i hope to be on the road by june 1st. like i said-"HOPE"
thanks everybody for all you help :cheers:

If you're looking for another crossmember,I have a spare rear differential mount crossmember. The rubber is good.there is a small nick in one bushing but I would use it.There is a little bit of rust scaling where the top plate is welded on the bottom. I was going to POR 15 it and store it. If you're interested, I paid $50 for it, maybe I can get some pictures to you on Tuesday. It came out of a 69 should fit your car but you may want to have someone double check it.

Awesome...good job. Beware of shops that have better salesmen than mechanics...look things over yourself. Wow...a girl that likes to get greasy. I think I'm in love.
