Disassembly
|
|
Once
garaged, the body was removed. It was discarded as there
was nothing of value to save. The sheet metal was also
removed to expose the bare chassis. The radiator was in
good condition, but since we were going to pull the
motor and transmission, that was removed. Later I
learned that the radiator needed to be replaced since it
required the taller model to fit the 1924
configuration.
At this point I had not yet decided on
the body choice. We just wanted to strip everything off
to the bare chassis to sand blast and paint it. In the
stripping we noticed the radius rods that stabilize the
rear axel by connecting to the transmission had rusted
out and needed replacement. I had a difficult time
finding the right pieces in good conditions, but Lang's
Antique Auto parts came through. The car required 6 or 7
auto part sources before it was completed.
