I purchased an "E" registered Ford Sierra 2 Litre Fuel Injection SOHC.The first part of the strip down was removing the interior the dashboard and the interior wiring. 

I was not using the wiring in the doors so I snipped this.

Ford's wiring is pre-assembled, so I knew there must be a way to get the dashboard loom out complete. Yes there is through the fuse box hole.

Next off came all the doors and the interior was stripped out.

I had a lot of help from my son Gregor stripping down the donor.
We stripped the ancillaries from the engine including the exhaust. Then Gregor removed the propshaft and the gearbox mounting bolts.

Out comes the engine and gearbox complete with the aid of a hoist and Gregor gives a big cheer.

The Sierra was then built up high enough for us to remove the rest of the parts.
The complete rear suspension and final drive.
The whole front end and the steering shaft. I retained the wheels in order to move the JBA chassis around.

Now the work starts refurbishing the parts.That is on the next page.
