Delivery date set! I should be expecting the car to arrive the last week of September. Oh man, Pretty exciting. Which means i have less than 2 weeks to prep the garage, Build a chassis dolly, and buy some tools that i’ll need for the start of the project. Luckily for me, Harbor freight had a parking lot sale. Here is what I scored.
I gave away my jackstands years ago so it was time to get some new ones. The car’s weight, including engine and transmission, under 1.5tons. These will work nicely for future projects too though (More on that later).
The creeper was only $20 so too hard to pass up. I did have another jack but according to the forums, a low-profile one is much more useful.
Always an exciting day when amazon delivers. We got this
Time to get working on the chassis dolly. Since my wife parks in the garage, I’ll have to keep everything mobile and move everything out of the way. Unfortunately she drives a three row SUV, aka the space shuttle, so she takes up the whole garage. My plan is to build the chassis on the dolly and move it over at the end of the way so she can park her tank in the garage.
