We'd just degreased the engine (and then the driveway) so it was a nice soapy mix!! the tyres were also at low pressure so needs all the help it can get. Chris did give the wheels a 1/4 of a spin on thursday, but then it stalled. I know it was a 1.4 turn because the marks on the tyres go a 1/4 of the way around!!!
as for the sedan, not much left to unveil. The headlights are gone, and into the wagon, the motor will be out soon, and hopefully the diff. I'll either sell/give away the shell, or take it to rest with the vh.
