Engine and Tranny out!

The engine and transmission are out of the car. We've also removed the brake calipers, wheel cylinders, and all the brake and clutch hydraulic cylinders. We'll be tearing these down and cleaning them up over the next couple weeks and let me tell you comrades, they need a cleaning.

We also found some troubling rust damage once we got the car in the air. Right behind both front wheel wells are soft spots so bad I was able to push through them and into the passenger compartment with my bare hands.

Comrade Davin also brought out a huge wing from his
dirt track car that looked totally sweet on the Lada.
However, we're concerned that it would lift the front
wheels off the ground at speed.
