Well not sure that I will be able to make it to the car show. Just got home drove my car around the block to survey the tranny damage. Parked the car in the garage, ran the shifter through the gears and now it will NOT come out of 4th. So I can't even back the car out of the garage.

I will try and post up the videos tonight but I think I will be yanking the trans out of the car
