Thanks for your help Steve, I got it off, but you did forget the famous
lay on the COLD concrete floor and watch rust fall in your eyes, bottom
bolts that attach the lower fascia behind the bumper. These are the
toughest as a socket wrench does not fit until the very end of the lower
bolts thread.
My tub is in fairly good shape, but it seems the car has a fondness for
collecting walnut shells. This is the third place I have found them
stashed.
