I am indeed, same username.

As of now the interior & exterior of the fto has been stripped and i plan on selling as much stuff as possible to get some cash as i need to get an engine crane before i can drop the engine so i may not get round to doing any major work till after xmas

Anyway heres a few pics of the progress so far

ill be up for tea and to help you out from time to time.....
Herself has not stopped about the puppy since we got back from your place the other day. Recon youll have to hide him next time....

No bother man im thinking of making some sort of trolly to put under the engine and just drop it onto that save me buying an engine crane so you can give me a hand when i get around to doing it

Oh and tell the boss she can take him with her next time

I did that with a pallet, just cut the front section off and out she came.

Yea i got it sorted the other day, got breaks & suspension off today just few small bits left to be removed and the shell is going to the crusher

This is how mine looked going into the skip.

No fancy equipment required, just a zetor and a silage grab

Heres how mine looks now, everything bar the rear trailing arms has been removed, the bolts seem to be siezed into the bushing
