If I can’t tackle this in a weekend then I’ll take my wife’s Scion and leave her stranded haha.

Nice! No rust is certainly a plus to the desert, and you probably won't have to go through the painting headache either. I hate painting for some reason lol. Mine spent most of its life in PA and is now in VA, so shes a tad crusty. You can most likely skip all the acid stuff which is another bonus. Good that you have another ride just in case, a little family carpool never hurt anyone lol.
I updated the tutorial earlier this week to include pictures from the 2-cut method on the shells, definitely much easier than wrestling the shell with only 1 cut. It came right out after the chunk between the cuts was removed.
