    Welcome panicman57. This will also be a good place to sell the 4-speed and parts you take out. How about posting some pictures of that wagon.

    Welcome aboard, Tony! I am having to consider the same thing transmissionwise. May see if a hydraulic setup will help. Really not into slush boxes and hate to go that route unless I must.

    Happy Motoring,

    Harry

    I am very thankful that my bad hip is on the right side, still able to row gears in the 3 cars I own with 4/5 speeds. You really need to add a $25-35 Camaro crossmember under that 700.
