What are you gonna do when a neighbor complains and the township comes and tells you to move it all NOW?

Did you find the noise yet? No air tools?
I'll give you credit. At least you got it off the ground.
You do know that it's going to pour down rain again soon don't you?
Good luck.

Good for you, keep up the good work and pictures. Keep track of all your parts, bolts, screws and connectors.

Detailed photos will also help you when you start to put everything back together. There will always be some mystery bolt or wire sitting there after a job this size and a batch of photos will come in handy.
Good luck!!

I dig the fact that you are excited about ripping into the car and getting in your wrench time.. but you might want to invest in one of these bad boys first.

Your car says Hollywood, and your grass says Detroit. If you drop anything and it rolls off the parking slab - you're never going to find it without a metal detector.

Trim it up, and at least purchase a 10x10 pop up canopy to protect yourself from the elements and the sun glare.

Thanks for posting this. In response to J. Moore. Sounds like you are living in the wrong neighborhood. If you're a car guy you always check out for city ordinances, homeowners associations and gated communities before you buy or rent a property where people act like the **** party. My neighbors love me because I'm frequently helping them with their vehicles and other things. Even had the local police stop by just to talk because some of them are into cars also. I always cover my vehicles and put things away after I'm done working.

Yeah that's true, my neighbors like me cause I help them to. But I put everything away all it looks like is a car raised in the air with jacks. I put everything in a shed. City has complained before but it was for the rv I think I'll be fine. I'll try to get it done soon
