Yes I am. One bolt till tranny drops! The last two tranny rubber mount bolts are a pain. One is sliding ok but the other is hung up a bit.

WHAHOO!

Muffle down. Its an ANSA muffler. I think its 3" piping. Is this good? I need to upgrade the cat. Might get a new complete system.


Has some damage. scrapes, nicks, dents etc.


And check this out?!?!? This is brand new gator. Its been chewed upon.


And then this,... which I put under the gator. Its been chewed too. Im thinking that some how a mouse got up into the gator from teh outside?!?!?


Tranny's down!!! OH YEAH!




Needs a good cleaning. I checked the code on this tranny and it says 5R?!?!? I checked the FSM and there is no 5R? It definitely has LSD. Where the Coints bolt too,... they both spin in the same direction. Now,... how to clean this thing? I heard over cleaner works great just keep it away from plastic and rubber. Spray on,... rinse off. True? Thanks for watching.

Ok I called the guy up with 951 with all the goodies and the dead engine. He said it was in one minor accident to front side. He said it was all fixed and everything is straight. S@#$. What do you think? Im 50/50 on it. It has a TON of cool stuff on it but the chassis might not be straight. Its not like I can just drive up there to see it too. If I went up there to see it I would bring cash and a trailer. So yea,... and so far only one other person emailed me back about a 951 and its a lot more than 3800. Should I wait. Just get a good NA for cheap. Or just go for this car?

You think? Im like 50/ 50 on it. Lets put it this way. I know these cars are tough. But how tough? I mean,... the accident couldnt of been minor and the chassis is straight as hell. In my situation I obvioulsy hit hard.

If the chassis was off a bit,... how would that effect me?

Don't let anyone discourage you. Do it in spite of all the negativity. I'm sure you will find a suitable chasis. Also, there are several search engines that will get all CL areas, or ones within a certain radius of your zip. I think there was a post in off topic within the last week about them.

So what do you think about that car!

Owner says it was in a small accident, hit front side. But everything is straight he says. Should I chance it or drop it? I have one guy that says go for it.

He is right man, don't let any of these jackasses discourage you, focus set an objective and your project should be done shortly.

btw, I'll give you $ 500.00 for the tranny and how much do you want for the calipers? What other part are you willing to sell?

Tell him to take the bra off and email you some hi-res pics of the front end before you make that drive.
