After the Winter holidays, it was finally time to get serious about getting the Gray Lady (1986 hatchback) ready for disassembly. I used one of my large tiedown straps through the exhaust manifolds to hoist the engine and transmission out of the car. From there you can really see how oily the car is, and what will be needed to get everything clean.
My name is Canaan Manley and I am the proprietor of Basin Motorsports. Basin Motorsports is a small garage in South Central Oregon aimed at rebuilding vehicles, making one-off custom parts, and documenting the process step by step for viewer enjoyment and intrigue. I'm an Engineer and Consultant by day, and have been a motorsport enthusiast for the last 27 years.
My car projects to date include a Nissan Versa/Tiida hatchback (Project Meep), a Nissan 240sx S14 (Project Zenki Redux), a '92 Ford Mustang Foxbody Notchback (Project 9deucecoupe), an '80 Ford Mustang Foxbody Notchback (Project WideFox), and an '86 hatchback (called the Gray Lady). Follow along in my adventures from car shows and car builds and I'll entertain as I give you all my secrets to build your next project.
