hey mike, if you have the day off, who's out fixing the rollercoasters? That's a pretty scarey thought. Poor kids. Oh, and do you ever get to work on the pirate ship???

Shouldn't you be suspended by a cable dangling from something with a wrench in your hand fixing something right now?

Speaking of fixing/working on something, I got 6 stitches in my forehead last night while dismantling that junked pearlie. I feel SOOOO STOOPID!!! The vacation pictures will look great with me sporting a zipper on my forehead (dead center, right above my nose!) Another reason to hate pearlies, they hit first! Got some good stuff out of it though. Pulling the engine this weekend and the entire rear suspension/drive train tonight.

Todd,
Any advice concerning taking an SVX apart. As you may have seen on the postings, I will begin next week to take a '94 FWD car apart to part out. Never done it before, so this will be a learning experience. Don't want to break anything taking it apart.... So any "lessons learned" would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Harry (newsvx)

Mike, there are plenty of qualified people ther to take care of thing's when I am away
As for the pirate ship, I used to work on that ride everyday my first year there.It is now in the hands of the other crew, so I will probably never touch it again

Harry, I wish I was closer to you, I would gladly help.

[newsvx]

Likewise, Mike. I wish you were next door. We would have it completely apart in a week's time!

Well, the first thing is when using a long (6') prybar, DON'T pull it directly towards your face!

The one I bought was devastated (pics in my locker), so I haven't been too careful removing things to get the parts I wanted (engine, rear suspension/diff, sensors, etc.) I have no salvagable body parts except possibly the rear bumper skin. The car strips down easily, most fasteners are 10mm,12mm, or 14mm and remove easily which I found surprising considering the age of the car and where I live in MI. I've been using a cutting torch, a reciprocating saw, an impact wrench, and my air ratchet to tear it down. The torch has been handy due to the structural distortion in the frame/body.

Before I dug into the project I tried to ID the parts I wanted to remove by scouring my service manual and the diagrams at subaruparts.com. I looked for expensive components(just about all parts are expensive), motorized stuff, and parts that could be rebuilt like the starter and alternator. So far I've removed the master cylinder and brake booster, rear suspension/diff, wheels, front brake tone wheels, ABS system, power antenna, tail lamps, a variety of sensors in the trunk under the package shelf, intake hose, and easy to remove engine components like the TB. The engine comes out tomorrow along with interior parts and electonics (ECU, TCU, timer controller). After that it's off to the scrap yard for her.

Good luck with your project and I'm glad Kyle wasn't hurt! Be careful with the airbag system. I can't remember if your airbag popped or not.

Hey Todd, is the trunk and spoiler on that thing totally scrap or would it be OK to use for the project I want to work on?

The spolier is gone and the trumk panel where the license plate mounts has been broken off from the upper panel, but other than that it's perfect . If you want it, let me know. I was planning on sneding it off with the shell when I'm done.

Thanks, Todd. Appreciate the advice. I'll be starting a thread this week detailing my progress, trails and tribulations. Except for the hood, frontend and right fender, I have lots of body parts. It still runs, in fact the tow truck driver drove it onto his truck. Radiator is gone (against the engine somewhat), so he didn't run it long. The air bag DID NOT deploy - I'm not sure how difficult it is to remove.
Thanks again,
Harry
