I have a 1964 Ford Falcon sedan with a 200 ci inline six and three speed top loader transmission. I'm replacing the clutch, well, removing it so I can figure out what went wrong inside.

I've removed the transmission today, now I'm attempting to remove the bell housing, and I've got all bolts off EXCEPT for the one at the top of the starter motor, it's a "high mount" starter motor.

I can't get in their with an open end wrench, and if I use a socket wrench, I can get the socket on there but there isn't enough clearance to turn the wrench at all.

It got dark before I could try other methods but I figure it doesn't hurt to get online here and ask if anyone has this setup in their Falcon and has removed their starter motor on a high mount starter mated to their 200 ci inline six motor with 3 speed top loader trans.

Tomorrow I hope to figure it out but just in case I'm also asking on this forum. Thanks!
