Pulled they tranny today for rebuild... Here's how we roll in down here in PA. Glad the old man could lend me the garage, if that is what you call it. Took a looky and he had some great old BelAir parts laying around though...

Yee Haww! Here are a couple pics.

Better than nothing. Atleast you not rolling around under your car in the yard, that sucks.

I had lost 3rd gear (spits it out) prior to the motor swap. That was why I made the granny passes @ the track (12.4 shifting at 6k). Still only have about 900mi on the new set up. Can't wait to make a full pass!

She's getting a new set drag springs w/QA1's and you're old wheels and tires Joe Stangman's gonna be pimping the Boyds!

Wow, I thought the tranny was fixed way back then. You like to take your time eh?

I remember Nelson telling me he was eyeing your rims, I always wondered how they would look on the SS, guess I'll see soon enough.
