Disassembly:

Pulled the motor from the bottom with the front sub-frame and all goodies still attached.

Almost ready.

engine coming out — Pulling the motor.

So cute...rear sub-frame is now gone also — Looks a little unbalanced.

Are the rockers supposed to have watery/oily mess on them ? NOPE ! — Gross!
