[DeTomaso] 1972 Gumball Detomaso Pantera engine pulling.

Dear Friends,
 
First and hardest job is over . 
 
We pulled the engine without a problem on Saturday. 5 hours including Lunch 
 Break. 
 
Headers are being sent to Jet Hot.
 
Motor mounts were good but they will be replaced along with all water  
hoses,gaskets ,etc.
 
Friday she goes to shop for months of bodywork.
 
Will keep you posted on the process. 
 
Biggest problem I had and still have is the fuel tank area. I broke all  
rivets on the fuel retaining wall but still the retaining wall does not come  
out. Any recommendations?
 
Regards,
Robert
