Title: I need my parts car gone ASAP
Post by: TopNotch on November 28, 2021, 07:35:12 pm: My trip to Texas and back was hard on my el-cheapo $400 transmission. The lock-up of the torque converter started slipping and eventually the PCM decided it wasn't going to work and quit trying it. So I need to re-build either the transmission in the car, or the one I took out of the car. Either way, I need all of my carport space.

Also. I’ll work with Gabe and Jimmy about moving the parts car.

Post by: Wreck It Ralph on December 03, 2021, 08:49:20 am: Well they forgot to pick up your old transmission. 🤦🏻‍♂️ Gabe has one that can with the 3800 project that is supposedly good. If there is any way to bring your old one to the Christmas party then I can get it to my guy.

Post by: TopNotch on December 03, 2021, 09:14:18 am: I could put it in the back of my SUV using my cherry picker. There would have to be some strong people with good backs at the party to get it out.

Post by: AJ_87Fiero on December 03, 2021, 02:34:52 pm: I missed this yesterday, thanks to traffic. It was dusk by the time I reached there, Pat's garage was still open, revelaing the majesticly beautiful Yellowbird coyly glistening in the setting sun's rays. I LOVED THAT VIEW! 8)

I think we can make that happen.
