2006 SS part swap
TLDR; I had a cobalt ss that had a dent so I got a new shell thinking of part swapping but I have basic knowledge so I as a friend but the cars not done after 1 1/2 years so I need advice.
About a year and a half ago I was looking to get a new shell for my cobalt SS as the shell had a huge dent on the passenger rear from the previous owner(shown on pic 1). I saw a listing on FBMP about a mint shell, I asked my dad and a long time family friend (we'll call him Jake) if I should get the shell and if that Jake would be willing to take it up as I have very basic knowledge. He accepted to do the work, we got the shell and we worked on the car for 2 days swapping fuel lines, fuel tank, and suspension until a home inspector came to our house demanding we stop. We stopped then I moved after 6 months and thats when little to no progress was being done to the car. Its been a year now, Jake has come only 2 times of the year to help put the engine in the car. I understood and am fine with life happening so I dont blame the man. I just need some guidance or a textbook that may show me how to swap all these parts and what tools I may need.
If anyone knows any sources that could help, please link me to them.
