To summarize the past 8 months up in a few sentences:
1) Bought a 98 csvt around January with a broken trans
2) Brought it to a local shop and had new motor mounts, trans mounts, and msds headers put on. I believe a new axle was installed too.
3) Had a used trans shipped in from SC and installed
4) Drove it 2 weeks and the car got stuck in 5th gear
5) Attempted to put the car on a tow dolly and scratched up the front bumper heavily :blackeye:.
6) Had the car towed to a shop that my grandpa's friend works at.
7) It is determined that both transmissions have internal damage.
8) Grandpa's friend needs the lift freed up by next week so a working manual trans is needed asap.
So now that we're up to speed, does anyone have a prepulled used transmission 98+ that is working and within 100 miles from the NJ border :shrug:? I need one bad .
Also, anyone know where I can pick up a car bra to temporarily "hide" the front bumper damage :blackeye:? Maybe something like:
I love my tours but they're a pricey hobby :blackeye:.
I'll try not to trade them all in for a gt stang :drool::laugh:.
