Spent about two hours today putting the car up on jackstands and continuing to disconnect bits and pieces. Got everything in the engine compartment done except for the ground strap that goes from the block to the firewall. Underneath, disconnected the throttle and starter wires and removed the clutch operating levers. Will drain the oil and disconnect the oil lines over the weekend. Still have some misc wires, etc to remove. I have decided to do this in a civilized manner, work for a couple of hours and then let the body rest! Should have the engine and transaxle out in another hour or two.
