How to remove furnace in 74 excella 500?

Hi again!
Wondering if there is a secret way to get this thing out, I don't see any obvious bolts. Figured I'd ask before I take the sawzall to the housing.

Not sure about 74, but my 73 had a suburban furnace. There were 2 screws in the front bottom that locked the furnace to the housing and subfloor. When these screws were removed you slide the furnace forward out of the metal cabinet. You can then remove the remaining screws that secures the cabinet to the floor and wall.

Just looked again at your photo. It looks like the furnace is out and all that is attached is the cabinet?

I took out any screws that were visible. Tried to post better pics but they aren't showing up 😕

Thanks Guys!
I just pulled and pulled and and came loose, who'd a thunk
The other parts to the left (battery related) are proving a little more difficult though..

Outside yhere are two screws holding the two vents to the exterior skin. Remove them and all else mentioned in previous replies. Slides out easily.
