you wont need a sawzall or chop saw like i get into, i usually dont plan on putting cars back together, theres no fun in that.
Yep, exactly. The chop saw comment was a joke but everything else was real.

You never know what you are up against. Fortunetly you are doing a '91, so things probably aren't that bad yet, but if you encounter a heavily frozen bolt, or one that's rounded off, or a Grade 8 bolt that has the head broken off your progress can come to a screeching halt if you are not prepared. The tools I mentioned are so you are better equipped to handle special situations.
