stan,
that is a critical portion of the unitised construction of that car. be
carefull of what you are removing or cutting in that area. being the rear
suspension mount area it's also one of the most reinforced areas in the body.
once the spring is out be carefull and get all the rust and dirt out and be
certain that area is completly intact and structurally sound.
chuck.
saabs and bugeyes! :)
