and away.</div><div class="yiv1243957473MsoNormal"> </div><div class="yiv1243957473MsoNormal">Depending on your physical strength the box is either very heavy or quite light. I did my 1964 2000 car last Sunday and it took me about 4 hours from start to finish though I had already drained the water previously. The real key is to get the car high enough both front and back so you have room to work, if you have a pit the whole job is considerably easier.</div><div class="yiv1243957473MsoNormal"> </div><div class="yiv1243957473MsoNormal">Good luck and any questions please let me know and I’ll try and help.</div><div class="yiv1243957473MsoNormal"> </div><div class="yiv1243957473MsoNormal">Best Regards</div><div class="yiv1243957473MsoNormal"> </div><div class="yiv1243957473MsoNormal">Alan Francis (partviking)</div><div class="yiv1243957473MsoNormal"> </div><div></div><div><span></span></div><div class="yiv1243957473MsoNormal">P.S.
