Victory over entropy!

We were able to pry the wheel assembly off the Nash. Thanks to the rusty, bent, ill fitting body work for delaying the inevitable. But we won in the end. The spring was the key. Once it was pried out, everything else fell into line. Hopefully I can replace it with a different spring left over from the BMW or Odyssey. I'd have to fab a mount, but it would worth it to tighten up the suspension. Now I need to compare and replace with the Midget parts.

Eric removed the remaining vent windows. All the glass is out of the car. Originally I wrote all the class is out of the car, but that's been gone for a long time. We also spent some time discussing mounting options and looks like we'll be able to squeeze everything in there. it'll be tight, but it will work. My idea to mount the engine above the steering link was shot down. I think it would be awesome to have the engine stick 2' above the hood. Screw visibility. Everyone's going to know to stay the hell out of our way regardless.
