Good morning MCF!
Thanks for starting the blog Tommt. Sounds like you ended up having fun 4 wheeling!
I did get started on removing the rear end on the racecar but, like you, I ran into difficulties. As you can imagine, a car built in 1984 is going to have some bolts that were put in place in 1984...lol and the 4 bolts I need to remove are most definitely original and are seized. So now I am seeking the help of some of my racing buddies to help me get those broken loose. I am pretty tired and sore from the work I did yesterday but once I getup and moving after I fix something to eat< I will probably head back over to the ggarage.

Rusted bolts can be a real pain. Try some PB Blaster and let it soak, then try and hit the bolt hard with a hammer a time or to. Sometimes this will break the rust that is seizing it. If you can get an impact wrench on it try that too.
