oops sorry about that confusing-ness
i have a built tranny in my garage waiting for Jame's old TC before it goes in, and that's the one i wanna have all the seals and whatnot checked over just to make sure it's all good before I put it in. I thought you meant that one but reading back MY post wasnt clear, and i was saying i may be able to throw that in my dads car and bring it down to you. Or any other tranny shop that I get good recommendations from reliable people for.
Just got back from a test drive... it is driveable as a 3 speed with the 2-3 shift being manual
ron: nooooo! no sawzall-ing otu a trans unless the car is already totalled/waiting for the junker
