Well, That is another problem I have. The front bow in my cr has been bent.
I have to remove it and figure out how to have it repaired  (any ideas?).  I
have purchased a new front bow seal. The clutch is gone. I had the clutch
adjusted and there is nothing left. I think that a leak might have killed
the clutch. It seems my car is leaking like a siv from just about any place
it can.

One of the few people in town who have messed with these cars at all was
very impressed with mine. Said it was in better unrestored shape than he has
seen in a while (leads me to believe that lots are pretty bad). He says my
motor is tight... I won't believe that until I do a compresison test. I
don't think the motor has ever been apart.

I'm glad to hear the the engine is relatively easy to remove
