I was overly optimistic about the progress I was going to make on the GT6+ 
this past weekend. I did manage to get the seats out, and the  interior is now 
empty. I ended up removing the bolts that the seat pivots on first. This was 
not easy, because of their position, but with a u-joint and a long extension 
on the ratchet it wasn't too bad. Then I could manhandle the sliding frame and 
get it out. I am going to assemble the seat back onto the sliding rack before 
reinstalling it in the car. I'll have it cleaned up and lubed up enough then 
to be able to push it back and forth easily.

Now I have to remove the shoulder harnesses, which have a nut turning on the 
underside of the car, up in the recessed area of the body where the spring 
goes. Then it's a matter of plugging up all the holes and putting down 
insulation and carpet. I hope to have it done before this weekend, which I can 
then spend finishing up.

Does anyone have a suggestion for a sealant for gluing/sealing the 
transmission cover to the body? I want to make sure there are no leaks here. 
Someone said that silicone sealer has acid in it? Help?

Tonight I'm going to find out how well Simple Green degreases....
