Hey guys, I've got some property down south of me that I just sold. I've a 67 Chrysler Imperial Crown Coupe on it that has the original 440/727 combo. It has factory A/C and all the goodies. The motor still cranks and fires & drives but the car is scrap from sitting too long in the weather. Now that the property is sold ( at a huge, huge profit!!!) I want to yank this motor/tranny combo to drop into my 72 dart. What will be the fastest way to yank this motor and combo? I know it won't be environmentally friendly but can I just start cutting hoses and unbolting this thing from the car. It doesn't have to be pretty but the motor/tranny need to come out clean and reusable. The only accessory I'd like to keep is the power steering pump. I was thinking about unbolting the tranny, exhaust and motor mounts and lifting it with a cherry picker. Anything left hanging still attached to the car gets cut with a sawzall or hot wrench. Anyone need any parts from this car? It's in New Braunfels, TX and you can take any parts you want for free minus the motor/tranny combo.

Also if anyone is interested, it's not a a-body, but I've got a Pontiac Catalina Convertible with a 455 that I'm willing to give away too. It was THE car in the movie "The Last Action Hero" . Unfortunately, it was left in the weather too long too and the ragtop and interior are destroyed. There are a few Buick Skylarks down there too.
