    Pulling the C6 out of a Mark 3

    Wood doesn't break. 4x12 beam cutoffs, flat, but put them on end and they will roll. Shove the beam cutoff under whatever your jacking, slip a 2x8 chunk on that, and a 2x6 on top of that. 2x4 on the top. Always go smaller on the way up, dont want a stack to roll

    Hi

    Got 2 Lincolns, 2001 LS that needs a thermostat and the driver door doesnt open from the inside and a 79 Continental that has seized up wipers, no gas gauge, no odometer, and a new problem with the ignition. Love the 79, best gas guzzling beater I've ever owned.
