I disassemble or break not build (1, 2 days) - Toyota Crown, 2.0 liter, 1991

Since I first practiced and disassembled the second donor, disassembling this was not too difficult. This is when for the first time you don’t know where, how and why to fasten, and now just twist and turn and be rude :)

1 day 10/31/2010
I wanted maximum access to the engine, for this I removed what was around it: a radiator grill, headlights, a hood, a bumper, an "aquarium" and wheel arch liners (I don't know how they are correctly called what the wings are attached to). All the same, I am very pleased with the frame structures - I took off the wings, and under them there was another (such as spars) and I took them off and an aquarium on the bolts - as a result, the engine was like on a stand. great.

I had to disconnect a lot of connectors (I try to remember), all the same, the Russian auto industry is simpler in this respect :) (although I would hardly have dismantled it so easily, if only with a grinder :)).
I unload the body as much as possible - after all, it will soon be removed from the frame - and I have only the mighty hands of friends at my disposal (you need to take care of them :), so I started to disassemble the interior - the driver's and rear seats, was surprised to find that a whole wiring harness goes into the back seat, I wonder why ,

finally I got into the garage again, finally got access to the "body" :)

Dismantled the back, that is, removed the bumper and rear fanari. The most difficult thing was to unscrew 8 bolts (there were simply no 2) connecting the frame and the body, since corrosion did its best there :). But if you suffer for a long time, then all the same, everything will unscrew and still unscrew. Now we slowly raise the body and disconnect all sorts of hoses and wires, namely brake hoses, handbrake cable, ground wires, automatic transmission lever and gas hoses. and now it’s very clear where and how the corrosive metal lives, but that’s enough.

it remains to deal with disconnecting the laces and wiring on the engine, but this is in the next series :)

Feature - the option could probably be on almost any bundle with RoyalSaloon (G).
There is a cassette player in the rear armrest, with its own separate headphones (although it seems like the sound can be put on acoustics).
A friend has a crown in full stuffing (probably the only copy in Russia), here he took a photo:

but nothing, just in case of installing options in the rear armrest :)

but I was naive and thought that in the 90s the maximum equipment was electric accessories and air conditioning :)

he himself is shocked, but at its price it’s normal, and extra practice in welding metals won’t hurt :)
