Matt Sladek lives about 25 miles South of me. And was the person that found the Mouse House last March. And said that if I needed a hand some day. Call. I'm not big on asking for help. But I thought this was a time. And that was a great call. He was a lifesaver for me on this project. There is absolutely no way I could have got the job done without his help. He took some photos. Try to get them up to show.

Thanks Matt for posting your photos. One thing that also helped was the condition of the frame. And not having to deal with rusty parts. Both GMC's frames have a lot of the original black paint on them. As I've never had a chance to restore the frame in the convertible. So today I'm going to start the engine to warm it up so I can change the oil. Then lube the cylinders walls before storage. Next I have to pull the drivetrain out of the Mouse House. As that engine has just 1800 miles on it. Then pull both engines from both front frame units. As this front assembly that we pulled yesterday is going in the Mouse House after the Mouse House engine is installed.
