Trannys are trouble--please expect explicit language... don't like it... don't read it.

I said it, we were all fuckin thinking it.

So, My Tater is a 1972... my Tater has a frozen tranny. Damn thing won't shift into 2nd or 3rd.
FUCK IT. I have a back up plan.
I have a 3 speed Tranny.
So now that the tranny is out, and we have a clutch and fly wheel ... my shopping habit is out of control ...

and the floors are out.

lets drop the tranny in that isn't frozen.....

except

the

spline


is smaller

THAN THE FUCKING 1972 CLUTCH!!!!


FUUUUCCCKKKKK



SO, the new tranny is out of a 1978 ... 1978 clutch ordered and arrived... thank goodness for friends at parts stores that take good care of customers.

--waiting for the weekend to get shit together---








In another more exciting note Tater's original seats are being re-upholstered. The guy doing it is GREAT at his job. and he said the metal and springs are still in great condition... THANK GOODNESS.
And I got birthday boxes, so she has a new steering wheel, horn button, and speedometer cable!

WE FUCKING GOT THIS



4 years and slow progress.

 September 3 this year was Mine & Taters 4 year anniversary. We all know she & I are slow but progressive. I decided to have a photo...
