She's back

Finally my car is in tip top shape. Did the trans swap in 2 days. Actually kinda surprised myself, being that it was my first major job ever. NOW, I can tag along for photo shoots and ride alongs. =)

Junk yard in Newark. My dad's been going there for about 20 years, so they cut us a break and gave us a one month warranty.

Thank you

What is the leak? motor oil or tranny fluid?

tranny fluid, and there was two leaks. One from the VSS, which was just the loose bolt, and one from the tranny line connection, I may have cross threaded the bolt or nut, whatever you wanna call it. Hopefully she'll be good to go tomorrow.
