I would just forget it. Waste of time. Where did you say this junk was. :) You can take the wings off. Two large bolts on each. Disconnect the light wires and the control riggings before you start. You will need to remove a strip of metal on the outside edge of the gas tanks. This will give you access to the bolts that take the wings off. The wheels will stay on. If you are not going far, mile or so, just tow it that way. If you need to it will fit a 8' trailer and easy to move. Great find. Good luck. Wish it was mine. Jack P.S. Get the Pacer and sell it to rebuild the coupe.
