Oh- I think you mean - what I know as a reciprocating saw. Yes I do.. and yes, they are wonderful for plunge cutting.
This stuff is a medium weight vinyl and is not Hard to cut…. Just very tedious with a hacksaw.. lol
So for the last few bits that go around the fan, I would likely use my little jigsaw. I just don’t want to annoy the neighbors too much.. lol

Ordered the parts to address the lingering exhaust manifold issue, and the sticking barn door lock, and.. eventually the motor mounts.. lol
I’m a bit “tense” about those manifold bolts.. ya know..

Start spraying them down with pb blaster now. By the time you take them off it should be ready. Replace them from Tractor Supply. They sell bolts by weight. Use a drop of thread lock to keep the new bolts in place. Run a new bolt in the thread hole when apart to make sure it is clean.

For tail lights you can buy gasket material at the auto parts place if it isn't restorable.
stay tuned
