Not bad for a 15 year old indeed! What an inspiration! I just tonight started removing the engine in my '91 and I haven't 100% decided to rebuild it myself, but now I figure hey, if a 15 year old can do it, this 39 year should be able to!

But then, I've been wrong before

I didn't take a single pic tonight, but I'll start tomorrow. So far, I've got most of the wiring harness disconnected, intake extension manifold off, and a good number of other minor things. Progress is better then I had expected.
